So you're basically just saying that most QBs are fragile little pussies?
Most people in all forms of employment don't respond well to that style of management, including athletes worth multi millions.

EDIT: So yes, lol.

Tua has looked better for sure but to be fair in evaluation: Tua also now has Tyreek Hill. Back when Flores was the coach he was throwing to DeVanta Parker and Preston Williams. He now has one of the best 1-2 punches in the league.
Tua had Jaylen Waddle catching 100+ passes in Flores' last season and still had shitty numbers. Granted Tyreek Hill makes a big difference, but it's McDaniel's offensive mind combined with his approach as a coach that unlocked Tua.


It also should be noted that in 2 years under Flores and 2 years under McDaniel they have won only 1 more game in a season. Flores did a shit ton with a average roster.
Flores had the Fins defense playing out of their skins, he's a very talented defensive coach for sure. I really like Mike McDaniel the person, but the jury is still out on whether he can lead the Dolphins to consistent success.

I wonder if the dynamics about how Chase will be treated by the Bengals if he gets a deal vs how Higgins is being treated and didnt will be viewed by other WRs looking for deals.

Higgins has been treated like shit by Cincy and hes done everything they asked since off season programs begun. He reported to training camp and has been at every practice. Yet he has not gotten the deal he wants but everyone knows if he hit the open market he will get the WR1 deal he wants.

Chase on the other hand is holding out and has not reported. Cincy has not openly talked about him like Cincy talked about Higgins.

How will future WRs view doing what the team asks vs doing what you think is best for you Un if it's holding out?

You a bronc fan?

They might just win 10 this year IMO
I'm genuinely not trying to be a dick, but do Broncos fans really believe they're more than a 5 win team? You guys are objectively one of the 2 or 3 worst rosters in football and play 4 games against the Chiefs and Harbaugh.

Wilson held the team back last year
The roster is unproven because of the young players, it isn't devoid of talent. Roster does however lack depth due to the Wilson contract eating up a big chunk of the salary cap.

I'm sure you know that Denver plays KC tough and has been a play from winning a handful of games the last few years, only one W though. We always play the Chargers tough and sometimes sweep them, Harbaugh is a stud but Chargers gonna Charger. Raiders have Denvers number though, 8 game losing streak...yikes.

Sean Payton has never won less than 7 games, don't sell him short.

I think they can win 6 games easy and if some of the young talent shapes up they could win 10 and surprise everybody.

I know you're not trying to be a dick, that comes natural to you. Can't wait for the season and the AFC west matchups, we will see how they pan out.

Nix is the first Rookie QB to start for Denver in the season opener since this guy, maybe you remember this guy?

I would bet you $50 that Denver gets at least 6 wins if you are interested.

There is a zero cursing policy in this year’s Hard Knocks because the Chicago Bears owners, the McCaskey Family, do not use profanity and would not want to hear their players cursing on TV.
