Bangarang Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 1 hour ago, Son of a K-Gun said: He doesn't sound like every other coach in the NFL, I'll give you that...but "really genuine"? He can't possibly believe the crap he spews about Tua, can he? I don’t think he’s the kind of person that says things just to say them. He isn’t afraid to give his opinion and that’s what I appreciate. He could’ve easily given a generic coach response but instead he wasn’t afraid to put himself out there. It’s early but so far he has Tua looking like a competent QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he's genuine because his social skills don't appear to be developed enough that he could figure out how to be disingenuous. McDaniel admitted in the one press conference that he can't get away with "Not showering til Wednesday after a Sunday game anymore because I'd be so busy" due to having to face the media so much"...I bet the team likes that quirkiness about him tho...probably is kinda refreshing to see someone like that. Wonder if he blasts this in the locker room after every win? I hate to say this(being a software engineer myself - fullstack tho!), but he reminds me of a lot of backend software engineers I used to work with in terms of social abilities.

Just the one from bangedupbills speculating his best guesses and breakdowns in the injury thread. Short is he expects Jackson, Phillips and possible Settle are the only ones that are likely to be out, thinks the rest have a good chance of playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I'd put "not showering til Wednesday" and "refreshing" in the same sentence 😛 Have to admit at first I was a little put off by his "quirkiness" and the media adoration of him - but I've also found it hard to hate the guy. I do think the real test is going to be when they start losing - we'll see how the nerd act goes over both with fans/media and more importantly in the locker room then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not completing 71% of his passes because he's inaccurate, holding onto the ball, and making bad decisions, either. Giving the guy credit is an anathema to many on this board and theirs apparently. I went and compared the passing charts of Josh and Tua in weeks 1 and 2. They look pretty darn similar. Josh was completing the bulk of his passes in the 5-15 yards range. Tua as well. And then I looked at Mahomes. Same thing. If Tua wasn't being discussed it would be said that Josh is playing with patience and taking what the defense is giving him, ala Brady. But somehow on this board Tua playing very much the same type of game is mocked for throwing under the coverage. Looking at the passes Tua threw in the 4th Qtr against Baltimore showed he can throw downfield with touch and distance. The one TD was a 50+ air yard bomb on target. It matters not that there were blown coverages in Baltimore. Tua saw it, his receivers made it so and he put the ball on target 4 times. If Josh did that we would be celebrating. Tua clearly has the arm strength to throw it 50 yards. In this NFL, that's all you need. Is his arm as strong as others? Probably not. It's arm and decision making and location that matter. No one judges how pretty a TD pass is. It's a TD pass. Overthrown, underthrown, tipped, great one-handed catch, miraculous toe tap. Matters not. A TD is a TD. The great thing about this week is with all the huffing and puffing from both fan bases aside, they get to play H2H. We will know if the passing stats below will hold up. Interesting Passing Stats: Pretty darn even TDs: Josh-7, Tua-7 Ints: Josh-2, Tua-2 Yards: Josh-614, Tua-739 Rating: Josh-123.7, Tua-116.5 Comp%: Josh-75.4%, Tua-71.1% Edited September 21, 2022 by wjag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back and watch the 2 long hill TDs. Hill runs in a straight line at the snap, Tua basically stares him down then heaves it as far as he can and Hill slows up, catches and runs into the endzone. He was so open both times it was stupid. Hill hasn't been able to go over the top against the Bills with Mahomes so avoid that and we'll see.

Not sure what the tally would be, but he clearly was not viewed in the same light as others. I admit I have been guilty of Alabama QB bias. I have stated on this board that they aren't as strong as other programs because they get to play with the cream of the crop. A stat I heard today was Alabama QBs starting in the NFL are 5-1 this year. And the one loss was because Mac played Tua. Josh got in to the right system and had a team built around him. I don't know if Tua will or will not flourish. But it seems to me Miami is following the Beane blueprint and building around the guy. The coach is early in his career, but it does seem like Miami and Tua are pointing up. Having said all of this, I sincerely hope the Bills curb stomp them on Sunday.

I view him as potentially Alex Smith. He can win you a lot of regular season games, but when the other team has a very good defense and he has to beat you himself, he can't do it and gets exposed in the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun Fact: Hill has 1 TD against the Bills in 4 games (including playoffs). Also in the regular season he was hasn't done much against the Bills. He's racked up yards in the two playoff games but he scored 2 TDs in 5 minutes against the Ravens. I just don't think that will happen Sunday.

Joe Marino read out his split stats when he releases in 2.5 seconds or less vs. over 2.5 seconds and the splits were very sharp.

Low Positive Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 So, my 19yo son just dredged out a 12 year old Facebook post where I promised to rock Bills Zubaz in public if the BIlls ever had a winning season again. Since that was the 7-9 Dick Jauron era, it seemed like a safe bet. Well, since he brought it to my attention I feel obligated to live up to my word. I just ordered us both pairs of the 'boz and an Allen jersey for myself. This is the first football jersey that I have ever bought. So, I need the that foolproof TBD advice; should I rock that new gear on Sunday or wait for a loss? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
