Sure, but he wasnt P.Manning horrific rookie year either. Always gotta give a qb 2-3 years before truly judging. Goff sucked year 1, so much better 2 and 3, then downhill. Wentz looked great first few years, then collapsed.

Different league today, matches the way of the world, people far less patient.
 
Mariota was very good first 2 or 3 years, then now a mere backup. Mayfield struggled a bit, but he only just last half of year 3 is starting to be elite

Mayfield's rookie year was epic actually. Broke the record for most TD passes by a rookie despite playing only 12 games before Herbert topped him last year.

Sorry yeah im dumb.

Anyway, just trying to say how some start good and go down, some start slow and go up, and some start and stay either slow or up

I'll forgive you 💕
 
As a Dolphins fan, im not overly ( a little yes) touchy about Tua. Was disappointed with rookie showing, but also confident he CAN take the leap up year 2 (not 3). But i just dont want us to trade for Watson and deep down dont think we will even if/when Watson is cleared and say no suspension. Would be throwing Tua away like Rosen was. Its scary close but Tua has or should have far more upside
 
Dolphins released OG D.J. Fluker.
Fluker suffered a meniscus injury at the start of camp that will reportedly sideline him for 3-4 weeks. He most recently made eight starts for the Ravens last year as a below-average option but should still find another home given his veteran status mid-camp.

Brian Flores: I think Tua Tagovailoa has gotten off to a good start

Posted by Myles Simmons on August 2, 2021, 3:44 PM EDT

It sounds like so far, so good for Tua Tagovailoa‘s 2021 training camp.

That at least feels like a shortened version of what Dolphins head coach Brian Flores had to say when asked about the second-year quarterback during his Monday press conference.
“Tua, I think he’s gotten off to a good start,” Flores said. “Still a long way to go, still very early. Good command of the offense, his techniques and his QB mechanics, fundamentals. Trying to work those every day and get them where they need to be so that his footwork, his timing, that all kind of plays into his accuracy as a passer. But also ball handling with the backs and things of that nature. So I think he’s off to a solid start. It’s still very early.

“We have a long way to go. We just have to continue to string good days together. That’s always my message to the team — one meeting, one walk-through, one practice, one play at a time. He’s taken that approach and seeing small improvements on a daily basis and hopefully, that continues. It’s not just Tua — it’s Jacoby [Brissett], it’s Reed [Sinnett]. And a lot of players offensively, defensively, and in the kicking game.”

As Flores was somewhat alluding to, the Dolphins haven’t even put on pads for practice yet, so it’s difficult to make any definitive statements. But as long as Tagovailoa is continuing to make steady progress, he’ll be in position to prove the Dolphins have a franchise quarterback after drafting him at No. 5 overall last year.
