Dolphins bench Ryan Fitzpatrick, to start Josh Rosen

[AFlaccoSeagulls 5,060]

Why would a tanking team start a young QB whose just gonna get killed behind that OL? Makes no sense.

should have kept Tunsil, Stills and started Rosen game 1

@ET80 is still available if they’re just tanking anyways. Might as well get a personality out there, sell some jerseys.

Maybe Rosen’s interceptions won’t get returned for touchdowns.

Isn't that exactly why they brought in this guy?

They got a good haul for Tunsil and Stills. 

If they whiff on these picks though. Yikes.

Its only as matter of time before Fitz comes in off the bench and throws 5 TDs

Everyone who wants a Fitzmagic jersey already has one from the time he played for their other favorite team.

Hope no Miami fan actually bought Fitzpatrick or Rosen jerseys. They were always getting the #1 QB in 2020.

Then comes out in a $175k suit and $250k watch for his press conference, just to follow it up with a 55% 0/2 performance the following week. 

I hope he has some good quotes at least.

Or 2021.

if they’re not sold on any QBs. They can trade back and get huge value. Happens every year.

another year if tanking isn’t the worst if it’s clear you’re all in for a specific guy.

They probably just want to see if there's really anything there on Rosen now before they draft Tua.

Makes perfect sense. See if we have anything in the kid. And when the inevitable conclusion is no, at least we know and we can move past this dumb trade.

strong disagree; I didn't want to lose Tunsil specifically but the value was waaaaay too good

[Danger 5,579]

By the way, this breaks the record for the most QBs starting in the NFL at 26 or younger in the 100 seasons.
