Decision making, accuracy, anticipation, and timing are what makes QBs. Same reason why Allen didn’t become good until he improved those areas.

Anytime people have trouble understanding the limits of not having elite arm strength I just show them this. Having an average arm limits the playbook. Josh is 7 yards deeper and still the ball gets there noticeably quicker. What a hose. Tua’s ball was definitely accurate, yes it was. Would have been right in the receivers hands if it got there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7975 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) I dont think Tua is an elite QB or anything but he is pretty accurate on his throws. His problem is he doesnt have an arm. Mahomes has an arm and makes a living off of broken play type throws. Tua being more accurate? I dont think he is but he is accurate on those short 5-10 yard type throws.

Physical ability definitely helps but has very little to do with success of a QB. It’s the reason many fans wanted Josh Rosen over Josh Allen. Rosen fans didn’t think Allen could develop all the important things needed to be a successful QB. Also, Tua was late on the throw. Josh wasn’t late. Josh can be late at times though with his arm but that would basically be 2019 Josh Allen. On this throw Tua is nearly throwing 2 seconds late. If that happens he’s always getting intercepted.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Tua is absolutely super accurate. I wouldn’t doubt that Hill is right. The biggest issue is Tua’s arm is about as strong as Chad Pennington’s, after all the surgeries. The guy is definitely very accurate or else he wouldn’t be in the league. His arm strength is as poor as I have ever seen and I feel like it will keep him from ever becoming a decent NFL QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask Peyton Manning his final year whether his physical ability had anything to do with his success after throwing 7td's and 15int's when his arm went. Him and Brady excelled at all those other traits you mentioned at the highest level probably ever. On Tua's particular throw it's pry still a TD is you had Allen, Mahomes, Herbert, Rodgers, etc...throwing it even with the hesitation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s an INT for any QB attempting that throw after 3 pats. Horribly late. You need some velocity. I’m not sure what Tua’s ball velocity is, but low-mid 50s is probably the minimum needed. I’m sure he’s in that range. Allen probably closer to 60+. Edited June 12, 2022 by Buffalo_Stampede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 As Foghorn Leghorn said, “we’ll I said I said from the 5 yard line maybe”. Tua’s a joke. He’ll hit Hill from 5 yards out, but that’s it. He can’t throw a 20 yard pass to save his life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayjent Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 So the Dolphins are going to try rub routes and bubble screens to Hill. Sounds like Hill will take a beating as teams leave Strong Safety/LBs in middle zone to clean up. Hell even take a 15 yd penalty for defenseless WR to set the tone. I think Hill is in for a rude awakening when Tua can’t extend plays like Mahomes and doesn’t get him the ball on time. We’ll see how he feels mid season about it, bc right now it’s just meaningless cheerleading. There is no question Hill opened up the Chiefs offense, but Mahomes isn’t going to suddenly suck without him. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stank_Nasty Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) Mahomes is absolutely gonna miss Hill bailing him out on some of the prayers he likes to heave up. Hill’s ability to track and time those balls isn’t talked about nearly enough. Without him I would guess quite a bit of those are getting picked or at the very least falling harmlessly to the turf. that being said. All this is a bad look for Hill. Just move on man.

JakeFrommStateFarm Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Tyreek seems to have an axe to grind with Reid and Mahommes. He's upset that Chiefs would not sign him to a Davante Adams type deal. “When the season ended, just to get to your question, we went to the team, and we basically said ‘Hey Tyreek did a contract after his third year. He’s outplayed that deal,'” Rosenhaus explained. “But, we were really far apart on the numbers. We felt strongly that Tyreek was the best receiver in football and deserved to get paid that way. They were very complimentary of Tyreek, but they were not prepared to make him the highest-paid receiver in football. “Then, what happened was the Davante Adams deal got done, and I called Tyreek, and I said ‘Look, here’s a guy that’s older than you, isn’t as accomplished, in my mind, as you, in terms of all the things that Tyreek can do with the football and away from the football – his ability to stretch the defense and open things up for (Travis) Kelce. When Adams got the huge deal, I spoke to Tyreek, and we both agreed that we were going to put the pressure on the Chiefs that they were either going to do a deal like that, or it wasn’t a great fit anymore because the respect isn’t mutual if you don’t see it that way.” “The crazy part is, I talked to Patrick Mahomes,” Hill said. “I talked to Andy Reid for like 30 minutes or so. I talked to both of them on the phone, I’m like ‘Hey, coach. I don’t even got to be the highest-paid, for real. I just want to be put in a realistic position that’s realistic for me and my family. I don’t got to get $30 million, at least give me $25 (million), $26 million).

Mr. WEO Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Tua is a very accurate QB. He was also the best RPO passer in the league last year. This is what he always was in college. The Fins are building the scheme around this. It requires an accurate QB and fast receivers going over the middle--which is one reason they went hard at Hill. Tua is what he is--and the Fins are going to roll with that. They won 6 in a row with him in the second half of the season and 7 of the last 8. Bills finished 5-3. He had 3 games with 80+% completions. Only 4 QBs have had back to back 80%. May not be an easy out for the Bills this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a very accurate qb. He doesn’t have a strong arm like Mahomes and that’s what will ultimately hold him back. Look at Chad Pennington. Noodle arm, but accurate as heck. I think Tua is very similar. Under 10 yards he is right. Past he is way wrong. Mind you with Mahomes’ arm angles he will put the ball on Hill much quicker and in result more space. Tua throws with less arm fluidity. The ball may be on the money but he will operate in less space. The plays that made Mahomes and Hill will not be as often for either. Hill will make some plays and Mahomes will hit some people deep but not at the rate that made them lethal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing what Hill is doing, or what Webb did, is silly and asking for ridicule. Again Hill saying "Tua is an accurate QB" is enough (just like Webb should have just said "Jones is a hard worker and very smart"). As for the rest of the AFC East, the Jets still aren't there, the Cheaters took a step back, and while Miami may have improved, was it enough to close the 15+ point margin of victory gap? Stay tuned.

Tagovailoa's accuracy on deep balls has been one of his stronger traits early in his career. Per PFF, he ranked second in deep ball completion percentage last season (48.3%), but only attempted 29 deep passes on the year. That should change in 2022, with the acquisition of Hill -- one of the premier deep threats in the league. Last season he caught 11-of-28 deep balls for 398 yards and three scores, ranking sixth in the league with a deep ball ADOT of 34.7. In PFF's adjusted completion percentage it was Mahomes (78.3%) who ranked second in the league in 2021. Tagovailoa's adjusted completion percentage of 75.3% ranked 18th.
