IT'S TUA TIME! The Dolphins Are Reportedly Making Tua The Starter After This Week's Bye (This Blog Is Much Better Than Nate's Blog)
I don't know why, but this feels like a win for casual football fans. I feel like you have to be a mean motherfucker (or a diehard fan of a Bama or Dolphins rival) to not be rooting for Tua becoming a starter less than a year after suffering a career-threatening injury. I guess you can say the same about rooting for Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has gone 3-3 this season while throwing for 1535 yards, 10 TDs, 7 picks along with 2 rushing TDs and some sprinkles of Fitzmagic on the field along with being an AWESOME teammate when Tua got his chance to play.
Is Fitz hurt? Being traded? Or just time for the young buck to come in after the Phins took care of business against two shitty teams and a Niners team where Jimmy G got benched at halftime? I don't know. But this is one of the rare times where benching Ryan Fitzpatrick before he morphs from Fitzmagic to Fitztragic probably won't hurt you in the good juju department.
P.S. How about Schefty having no rival in the NFL newsbreaking scene since Ian Rapoport went on IG to talk about shaving his balls, which allowed Schefty to employ the graphics department at the Worldwide Leader to make Photoshops announcing this news. The entire #Insider food chain is fucked right now.
