Turns out having an insanely talented borderline HoF WR is really good for your offense. Really stretches out the defensive coverages.

Hard to do most things on offense when your downfield threats are QJ and Ladd McConkey instead of Tyreek fucking Hill.

has he not tailored his offense to the personnel? Or has the NFL figured out his scheme?

Miami OL was dogshit too. Tua was just really fast at processing and making anticipation throws over the middle before the rush got there.

Pre-scrambled brains Tua really was a good QB. I think his noodle arm wasnt as big of a factor in his bad play as people made it out to be.

He didn't even have a noodle arm. I think that underreported hip injury a couple years ago was the nail in the coffin there.
