And they're bypassing Zach Wilson to go straight to rookie Quinn Ewers. Makes sense. I think everyone has accepted at this point that Zach Wilson isn't panning out as a starter, might as well use the last three games to get a look at the rookie.

We were always gonna have to beat the Bucs twice. Hopefully the warnings sent by Murray and Tua's contracts are enough for us to make the right decision going forward. BY has never had a season remotely close to as good as the ones that got them those contracts.

Heck, maybe he plays better than Tua and helps us

 

 

Yeah

We just have to win.

This also should throw up a red flag to our front office

Yep. Do not get tempted to pay physically limited QBs like franchise QBs.

That Saints game was so disappointing on another level. To have the division lead in your hands after years and years of being abysmal, and to lose it to a 3-10 team (who got one win on us)...I can't even put that into words.

I'll root for us to make it to the playoffs. But games like that make it hard for me to believe we deserve it..or more importantly will show up when it's time to dance.

Remember when Tua was the top end for Bryce?  Not sure that's changed but here we are.

Would the dolphins cut him and eat an ass ton of money this off-season?

[LinvilleGorge]

This also essentially confirms the Dolphins will release Tua this offseason. They can save $47M by cutting him and that's not even with a post-June 1st designation.

And before anyone asks... hell no.

It won't. Bryce is special and different. He is just so much more talented. Just look at how he has improved over his three years. He's gonna be one of the best QB's in the NFL in the 2040's.

See above. He's as good as cut. They'll eat $18M but still net $47M in cap savings.

How much dead money does it cost them though? Like 40 million?
