Tua time!
Those lsu WRs are the most underrated lot in college football.
If gonna make that argument with tua have to make it with burrows.

Yeah I wouldnt cry if Burrow came to Miami at all. Just prefer Tua.
This is dreadful. Yikes. Odds are not in our favor. No wonder the same 5 QBs are in the SB every year. PS Jared Goff sucks and Wentz is average / would not have won that SB vs NE.

They looked like strong hands.
You obviously didn’t bother to watch the SEC Championship game or the National Championship game. Because in the SEC game against Georgia, Tua was awful. He was replaced by Hurts who ended up leading Alabama to victory over Georgia.
Tua played very well in the game against Oklahoma. Yet Oklahoma had a terrible defense throughout the entire 2018 college season. In the game against Clemson, Tua was merely mediocre.
So you can take your ‘“fake News” BS and actually look at the stats of those games. Because you obviously have no clue.
Agreed. I have to add a little levity here cause it’s all I have right now:
1. You forgot to cite Wayne Gretzky for that quote - lol
2. We didn’t draft Drew Brees and yet still had a chance to NOT miss on him 100%.

I'll be sure to get around to watching those games at some point.
However, Tua was playing injured the entire second half of the season, and had his already injured ankle stepped on by Jonah Williams, which is why he left the game and Hurts had to enter the game.
Tua had just thrown a 51 yard TD pass to Waddle to pull within 7 before he got his ankle stepped on by a 310 pound offensive lineman's cleat.
If you'll remember, Tua is the one that came in the game for an ineffective Hurts vs. Georgia in the national championship game the year before and threw 3 TD passes in the 2nd half to lead the come from behind win.
Although I find it ironic that you'd mention Oklahoma's defense when it's Tua, but not Texas' defense when it's Burrow.
Oklahoma is better than Texas - which is why Oklahoma just beat 'em. Again.
Tua was a lot better against Clemson than Burrow was against Alabama.

Tua hasn't played the #7 team in the nation.

Florida is #9.
But you're right - Tua had 3 incompletions and 4 TD passes against a CFB playoff team (#4 Oklahoma) last year

Was he really crappy last year? Some guys finally get into the right spot and the light goes on. Every coach swears by him. Could be a case of maturing and confidence. Either way, he's made himself a lot of money.
You are obviously all in on Tua. I suspect that if the Dolphins get the first pick in the draft, they will likely draft Tua. As a Dolphin fan since 1966, I will certainly be rooting for him to be as great as you and many others think he will be. I just think that Burrows will eventually turn out to be the better NFL QB.I'll be sure to get around to watching those games at some point.

I am not one of those fans who want to Tank for Tua. I want the Dolphins to win games this year and if they do win, especially against the Bengals I hope the Bengals draft Tua and Grier ends up drafting Burrows.
As far as you pointing out that Oklahoma is better than Texas. While that might the case so far this year. Last year Texas and Oklahoma split two games and in the game won by Texas they scored 48 points against a terrible Oklahoma defense. In fact the defensive coordinator of the Sooners was fired after the season because of how bad the defense was last year.

I'm not arguing that Oklahoma's defense didn't suck last year. But to dismiss Tua's game against Oklahoma and in the same breath try to pump up Burrow's performance against a Texas defense that's just as bad - just shows your bias.
Everyone has the right to their own opinion. But not their own facts. Don't start out with "The fact is".... and then follow it up with everything but the facts. I know what the facts are.
I don't know how great he'll be - a lot of that is dependent on many things outside of his control. I just know he's the best player in the country and the best quarterback in the draft. The rest is yet to be determined.
No kidding
