In a roundabout way I guess I'm glad my house didn't have power during these games as I didn't have to watch these boat races.

So what's the story on Tua? I haven't followed him too closely but the super screen gameplay seemed really weird

my guess is mcdaniel thought tua would be hampered by the conditions too much to work down the field, and also he's kind of stupid coach who isn't willing or able to adjust his play calling when it's not doing poo poo

he's sad now but mcdaniel will invite him over for a pajama party and they'll watch the waterboy and it will cheer him up.

Yeah I'm not worried about the screen thing being the plan, but the fact that McDaniel straight up refused to learn anything from the results as the game unfolded is very very worrying

If you had told me before this game that the defense, which has like no starters left thanks to a billion injuries, would keep you relatively close through 3 quarters I would have told you you were crazy

these past two weeks were pretty similar in showing what the dolphins weaknesses were, the only difference was mahomes wasn't throwing INTs, so the chiefs could get field goals

Look at Tua’s numbers from the first half vs the second when teams started figuring out the scheme.

Tua goes as McDaniel goes. He isn’t Josh Allen.

I have absolutely no idea what you do going forward. You are pretty much committed to Tua for a ton of money because you don't have the picks to get a decent QB and anybody who is a FA is going to be mediocre at best

I'm thinking that I should stop wishing KC would stop shooting themselves in the foot with penalties and drops but I don't think that gets fixed so hey I'm just going to cheer on field goals and good defense like it's 1995

they have another year. maybe next year tua proves himself or you end up with a high-end pick (haha jk gets gifted 4 free wins by the jets/pats, ends up 9-7 again)

Those were two exceedingly boring games of football. As a Seahawks fan, I just wanted some good games, and those were some of the worst playoff games I've seen. Is there another day of playoff football people remember with worse games than this?

No he's not gonna redefine the QB market but he'll command 40ish million a year. Is he worth that?

I would give him 4x40 personally, that’s not totally crippling and short term enough for McDaniel to figure his poo poo out.

Tua lost tens of millions of dollars over the last three games. If he wins literally any one of them (or at least has one standout performance) he'd probably be getting the mega contract.

I don't think so. The roster doesn't get better after he's eating big chunk of your cap - is Tua going to elevate the group? Are you really fine giving him Josh Allen money in a division that also has Josh Allen? Are you sure you can't find a guy that can give you 80% of Tua for a fraction of that price?
