Increased foot speed and mobility will really help him in that area.Do they teach him how to create when the play breaks down?
Call me crazy, but he wouldnāt have to run like a gazelle if our OL wasnāt trash. He went from MVP front runner to āfat and slowā when every starter on our OL was hurt. Oh and some of their back ups were hurt too. I appreciate the people who want Tua to run around, but I would prefer an OL that doesnāt allow multiple defenders to apply pressure in 2.5 seconds (or less) every pass pro rep.Increased foot speed and mobility will really help him in that area.
Let's hope he's running around like a gazelle out there this season.
Why did you have to bring sense into this? I'm with you though.Call me crazy, but he wouldnāt have to run like a gazelle if our OL wasnāt trash.

I agree there were a few times (last year) where he could have run, but unless he was Lamar Jackson fast 90% of the time there was no way to escape. There is a difference between avoiding a blitz or pressure from 1 defender and escaping from your pocket immediately crumbling around you.
I would have quoted the guy you quoted, but I opted for the block button on that one.
Tua throws at 2.5 secs because the offense is built to him and he is really most effective as a 1 read qb . I have seen many plays where there is far more time but he has already decided where he was going to throw or even force the ball mostly to Hill.Call me crazy, but he wouldnāt have to run like a gazelle if our OL wasnāt trash.

Have to disagree here.......I see plenty of Tua criticism whether it is justified or not by his performance on the field. Whether that is direct criticism of his play if poor, or the inability to recognize when he does things well and acknowledge it....both are present in plenty of quantity here on this site.For some reason many posters want to blame anyone other than Tua for any shortcomings . There is no such thing as a perfect offense , if there was even my old fat ass would be able to suit up .
