Reading an article describing Miami's new playbook is complicated, but Tua is acing it. A few sentences later they say, if Tua had as horrible a season as he did last year, wth ?

Even the biggest Tua haters wouldn't say his season was terrible, nut these media outlets love to stir the pot.

Miami Dolphins: More playbook issues for the Dolphins?

The Miami Dolphins have more playbook drama, as there are now reports that the new playbook is very in-depth, and very confusing.

The author is a chump... lots of hand-wringing and exaggeration to get people upset; he has a future in talk radio.

But other than that, if it is actually true that the new playbook is complex, and that they are working extremely hard to make sure that Tua has an encyclopedic understanding of said playbook, then we'll all be very happy with the results.

A smart QB who makes quick reads, armed with a complex playbook that has many 'read and react' plays within it are a great combination.

I think you misunderstood what was said.

He referred to the play caller was horrible. The play caller last year was Gailey. This year it is GodStud or whoever will be calling the plays.

The writer said he is in the middle on Tua in the article he referred to.

Yeap, I misread it. I still don't like the author, lol.
 
Reason from phins side podcast said it was complicated. His sources are usually decent. Who knows maybe it is complicated.
 
Sadly, in many ways sports media is following the same path as news media. It's more about getting clicks, viewership etc. than reporting facts and truth.

Many media outlets are going more and more to opinion based reporting, which is a small step away from joining the late night television political satires.

I think Tua is thick skinned enough to handle it, though. But I do believe athletes should have a choice of whether or not to talk to the media.

Ya but they said tua was acing the offense so there wasn’t a shots taken there. But they have taken enough shots at him.

I just think Tua, or any other athlete, should have a choice of whether or not to talk with reporters who may have put out false information.

I know the NFL doesn't want that.

If Tua isn't in love with the play, concept, what-have-you, it doesn't make the playbook (if it were up to me).
