Jacoby Brissett isn't Fitz, but he and Tua Tagovailoa ‘working really, really well together'

[mrbunglez]

The Dolphins didn’t just lose a backup/starting quarterback when Ryan Fitzpatrick left to join Washington. Tua Tagovailoa lost a mentor and a friend who helped him navigate his transition from Alabama to the NFL.

Now that role falls on the shoulders of Jacoby Brissett. And it’s apparently off to a good start.

“I think the quarterback room is special,” Charlie Frye, the new position coach and a former NFL quarterback himself, said Monday. “There’s a lot of things that are talked about and sorted through and ideas bouncing off each other. Those two guys are working really, really well together.”

Jacoby Brissett, who has started 32 games in his career, is filling the void of helping Tua Tagovailoa now that Ryan Fitzpatrick is in Washington.

As long as the coaching staff doesn’t see Brissett as the QB they are going to put in the game if Tua plays a bad quarter, I am happy with him as the Dolphins backup QB. I appreciate what Fitzpatrick did for the Dolphins in the 2 years he was with the team but it was time for the Dolphins to turn the team over completely to Tua and it was time for Fitzpatrick to go play for his 500th team.

I’m very interested to see what Frye brings to the table. Hopefully he’s the next wunderkind offensive coach.

Agreed.

And Brissett is the type of QB who takes care of the football and you can win a few games leaning on your defense if need be. Excellent pickup. Should be one of the better backup QBs in the NFL.

I just want all three phases to succeed.
It would be nice to have a well rounded team.

Was it Charlie Frye who led a game winning drive against us in week 3 of 2011 season when we played the browns in sopranos last year?

I admit, I used to get annoyed and couldn't understand why people wouldn't get behind Fitz. Yeah we had Tua but I along with many others wanted him to sit a year. I still think Fitz should have never been pulled but am now grateful that Tua got some playing time.. I wasnt mad at all when Tua got pulled, he played like crap sometimes and couldn't move the ball. I am a big Fitz fan and last year, he gave us the best chance to win.

That being said, I understand why people wanted to move on from Fitz and see Tua. We did have to see what our future looked like. Hopefully it's bright but if not, I hope we move on from Tua as fast as we are moving on from other players that didn't work out.

Cheers to a fantastic 2021 season!!
