I've been discussing this with @silver McNibblets the last 2 days... There's one recurring point of discussion coming out of the Titans coaching staff and player's PCs this week. First Vrabel talked about the fact that Tua's throws rarely get batted down at the LOS, and he said his theory was that it was because he's left handed and that they were working on matching hands in practice this week. It also came up in a player's PC.

This looks like it was a big focus for them on the D side of the ball this week. I think it plays right into the Fins hands as we really think the low batted ball count has a lot more to do with the quick release than the throwing arm. I also think they wont get nearly enough time to really get those arms up as fast as their usual side from one week of practice, might also make them lose a split second just thinking about it.

Anyway, it'll be something to monitor during the game... Thoughts?

Seems like a reach (pun intended).

I trust nothing coaches say about a game…before a game.

Seems like an odd thing to spend any quality time focusing on!

His passes don’t get batted down because he has one of if not the fastest releases ever

Just watched all passes from the last 2 games... Teams are already trying what Vrabel is suggesting... 1) Defenders are either raising both hands or the right hand on Tua throws. 2) Defenders dont even have the reaction time to put either hand up on RPO plays.

The one batted pass in 2021 was a right hand, so there's that...lol!

I mean both hands up seems like a good way to get laid out lol

Plus this seems like a muscle memory thing that you've been working on since OTA, TC, and throughout the games.
 
Personally, If i were anyteam i would focus on stopping Waddle at all cost and forcing the Dolphins to beat us consistently with Parker, Wilson, and/or a Mike Gesick.

I'd triple Waddle if i needed to and bet you can't consistently win one on one's with the other players.
