Tua being a lefty

When you watch Dolphins games on TV it looks strange like he is backwards. I would think that would be difficult to simulate in practice. Expect him rolling out left more? I know we struggle getting pressure, but I think if we can contain his running and make him pass more often he will make mistakes our defense can capitalize on. For guys who are more X's and O's oriented how does this change our defense's approach?

He doesn't really run

Rookie LT Liam Eichenberg is playing horribly. He's a bit of a homer too so the fact that he admitted this shows how truly bad he has been. Keep in mind that the LT is Tua's front side. I am not a fan of PFF but he mentioned that Eichenberg has the lowest grade among all tackles including Solder.

The Giants need to take advantage of Eichenberg and keep attacking his side.

We should Jalen Hurts him

Who would be the best guy to attack that side, Ojulari? Roche? Surely not Carter.

Tua stinks

and we need to allow him to lose the game just like Darnold and Hurts did . It will be a very close game because Giants cannot score 20 pts. Hoping Tua coughs up the game during final possession.

I didn’t think Tua was any good, but he has started to look good in

Recent games. He isn’t inclined to run and won’t scramble unless it is necessary. He wants to sit in the pocket but he can throw when he is moved off his spot - just not as well.

Giants need to come with constant pressure. Don’t worry about containing. He may make a couple of plays outside the pocket but he isn’t going to beat you there.
