Dolphinmeister Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I just have a feeling Jimmy G may be in Miami next season, I,m not saying this is a good or bad thing, but I can see this happening now that Purdy has established himself in San Fran. and the Niners will want to move from him even more now.

Emerica Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I have zero doubt Tua is going to be the starter next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrubes20 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Tua is the starter next year, unless he has a serious injury the next couple weeks. He's gonna have to be balling again next year like he was earlier this year though, to get that 2nd contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphinmeister Posted December 26, 2022 Author Share Posted December 26, 2022 I will have to see the next 2 games before I would say Tua will be the starter next year but even if he is I think Miami will have plan B in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Wouldn't shock me at all. Tua can't stay healthy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphinmeister Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share Posted December 27, 2022 I just saw Tua is in concussion protocol again, looks like it happened when Miami was up 20 to 10 that could explain the poor play the second half but now brings up another question of durability also. At this point it is just more of the same old same old we as long time fans have dealt with for years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami just can't have nice things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinsesq Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I would think we are more likely to see Daniel Jones than Jimmy G. Just a gut feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 As a non dolphins fan, I would assume that Tua would still head into next year as the starter, and I Think Jimmy is going to want to go into a situation where he is either a lock to be the starter, or is very likely to be the starter. I think in the Dolphins case it makes more sense to have a high level back up, but a guy that is clearly still a backup. But you want the guy that you feel like you can rely on for a few games when Tua gets hurt. There are a number of those types throughout the league. Someone like Darnold could make sense. Brissett coming back could make sense. Guys like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's incredibly sad considering his progress, but he just can't stay healthy. He's not long for this league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not due to his on-field product, as he was tremendous this year when healthy. But I don't want to see Tua in a wheelchair or having issues with simple tasks before he's 30.

It is a decision any grown person has the right to make for him/herself. I won't fault him for choosing either path. He has proven to me he belongs in this league, if he chose to hang it up now I wish him the best. Retiring due to injury doesn't make him a bust in my eyes.

I think he is more than likely a Raider at this point if he continues to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
