Rain, snow, cold, etc. We haven't had much of a sample size to analyze yet but this is an important revelation for the future of our franchise quarterback. His hands are pretty big which is a plus but the lack of experience in this type of game environment will hopefully not be a determining factor on Sunday.
 
I'm watching the weather in Nashville. It is 70's all week until overnight Saturday when it turns cold overnight with a high of 39 during the game. I am hoping the cold front slows down and comes after the game. Not for Tua as much as myself as I am cold intolerant. Sitting in section 108 with my son.

Enjoy and bring us another win.

It's up to you not your son.
 
I’m in Tennessee right now visiting family. It’s actually warm this time of year, I’ve been here when it’s snowing. This is the 1st time I’ve been here during winter where I can wear a tshirt and shorts in December. Highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. Just seen that it’ll actually be only a high of 49 and a low of 20 this coming Sunday, but that’s in the Smokey mountains.

I’ll be there too and they are now saying a high of 34 and luckily the rain forecast has gone away. I’ll be in section 311 with a large group of about 150 Dolphins fans.
 
It affected Marino. Some of his worse games were the New England games in December/January.

I think Tua will have more success as he is willing and highly capable of throwing short, quick passes.

Miami developing a solid running would also help.

But yeah, it’s a bitch to go from a comfortable environment to a cold one, especially if wind is a factor. Much more so than to go from a cold environment to a comfortable one.
 
What the team should do is send Tua and the Receivers up to Colorado or the Cascades after the season for a couple of weeks on a "Throwing in the snow/****offitscold vacation" and they should do it EVERY YEAR!!!

The rain and wind and stuff he can learn anywhere but learning to throw with no feeling in your fingers is tough for anyone.
 
First, i think we will this game against the Titans and Tanny... dont shoot the messenger

"Since 2017, the Dolphins are 1-11 in games where the kickoff temperature is below 50 degrees and it's going to be well below 50 degrees in Tennessee (It's expected to be about 38 at kickoff). Also, those 11 losses have come by an average of 16.5 points per game. "

How many “the Dolphins always” have been dismissed this year? This kind of stuff has no bearing. Not the same team.

- Ravens own the Dolphins
- Dolphins can’t win at New England
- Glennon/Flacco/Tyrod own the Dolphins
- Dolphins can’t win in domes
- Dolphins can’t stop QBs like Lamar
- Dolphins can’t win on Thursday night games
- Dolphins can’t win in December

I expect to add “Dolphins can’t win in the cold” to that kill list.
