Tua vs Herbert

[Mitchell_NY]

I cant understand the comparsion here whatsoever. They are both missing the playoffs again. Again. Herbert has better players at every single skill position as we have. It isnt even close. Tua playing with the worst O line in football. Street Rb's. 1 Wr. This is insane. would Herbert make us any better with our skill set? No. Herbert more skilled? yes., 100%. Does the talent on Miami match the talent on san diego? Not even close. It is beyond bizzare.

Are they both home playing Madden against each other?

Some people can’t get over draft picks for 30 years. Every team would do different in hindsight…gotta move on.

We drafted the wrong player, thats ok to admit. To try and justify the selection is unnecessary. The comparisons are relevant because of the simple fact that we chose Tua over Herbert, its not that hard to comprehend. Is it right? Depends on who you ask.

Herbert is at home watching the playoffs only because his defense is atrocious and his coach is an idiot.

At this point we gotta live with our choice and hope that in year 3 Tua can become the game manager we expected him to be.

We cant change this. Whats done is done but at this point Herbert looked like an mvp candidate and Tua just looks like a backup. Tua is our qb and we just have to hope he improves. Coming out Tua looked like he could be the gut minus the huge injury. I am sure if we had a do over Herbert would be the guy. Lets hope Tua makes a giant leap but i am not holding my breath

It’s rather ridiculous to keep bringing up this comparison. The fact is the Dolphins selected Tua and not Herbert and there is absolutely nothing which can done to change this fact.

Well except constantly bitch and moan on a message board.

I was intercepted a lot with Tua in madden at first, got so good at madden playing against my friends , and even learned the RPO stuff in madden and out smarted my friends to a point. Ended up getting intercepted in bubble routes ahhaha.

Listen I’m the biggest Tua homer there is, I love the kid and still have hope he pans out but Herbert is light years ahead of him. That being said no 2nd year qb should be compared to Herbert or Burrow, they are simply two of the best 2nd year players in the history of the nfl if that is your expectation you’ll be drafting 24 qbs in the next 50 years and maybe you get lucky and choose one of that caliber.

I also think that given the pieces Tua can be a better quarterback than Herbert. He may never be as good as a passer as Herbert but I think there’s a difference between being a great passer and a great quarterback. There’s other things that qbs bring to the game like being clutch or being a leader or even making a play that hyped up the team. I’m not sure that is certainly Tua as of now but I do find it strange the team just plays better with him at qb even if he’s not doing anything to carry the team, they just seem to play better. Despite Herbert being a much better passer and having a much better supporting cast, Tua still has a better record. Maybe our defense is that much better than the Chargers or maybe Tua really does fit the role of qb a little better, who knows.

It doesn't matter now. Can't change history. At the time Tua seemed like a better prospect than Herbert, but Herbert was put into a better offensive system and did better out of the gate.

If you're always doing a "we could've had... [insert player name]", you'll never be happy.
