@@JB-ie5tp not a doctor. But I’m just worried about the human being. There is a lot of clinical evidence that the more concussions you suffer, the worse off you are later in life. Just don’t want another heartbreaking incident of a retired player out of his wits or worse.
@@nathanclements6635I don't see yall bitching at Brady. Best for his family would of been retiring before 40. Not only did he keep playing, now he is an owner an announcer. 🤷♂️
One of the biggest problems is that Tua suffered a double concussion last year - which is infinitely worse than having two concussions that both fully healed. It can cause brain damage, and it explains why (this time) he got a severe concussion off a minor tackle. So, even if he gets cleared, it’ll be very dangerous for him to continue to play.
He didn’t have concussions last year. Are you talking about two seasons ago? And what’s a “double concussion”? You mean he had two concussions in a matter of months apart?
Tua was fully informed he was in danger and taking huge long-term risks in late 2022. He decided to play on, so he may double down come November. The question is: are the Dolphins willing to gamble and/or waste season after season on a particularly fragile QB?
I Remember back in high school playing Football in Texas -2 days in 100 degree heat When you got your “bell rung” Coaches would say You’ll be fine get back in there ITS GREAT TO SEE THE CHANGE FOR OUR KIDS HEALTH ❤
Do you all remember Dwain Haskins? Tomorrow isn't promised in this life. This is his decision and it's a tough one, but if he does decide to retire today, that doesn't guarantee that he even lives to 50. Nothing is guaranteed in this life except death, but you already know that...
Not necessarily. They have made a lot of progression in how to mitigate the risk with concussions with certain treatment directly following a concussion
If Tua got that bad of a concussion from that hit, he shouldn't be playing anymore. He ran into a stationary human who wasn't even trying to tackle him
Tom Brady coming back to the AFC east to end the Bills run on top of the division would be hilarious and might actually be the joker origin story for many in western NY. I want it.
@@letmeeatcake7836 if a Hamlin hug can TKO him I don't think there is anything Tua can do to avoid more serious trauma to the brain. He is just really susceptible. even if he takes half or a quarter of the shots, it only takes 1 (not even) good hit to give him a severe concussion
I've had 5 concussions that knocked me out on the field and now I deal with lifetime effects like passing out due to my nervous system being fried he really needs to think about this
I don't see any legitimate doctor signing off on Tua being cleared... The whole world will know his name the SECOND Tua gets another concussion - and let's be real, it's EXTREMELY likely. If he DOES get cleared... At what point does it start to affect his play? Making rushed/bad decisions or throwing the ball away early to avoid hits, etc...
I thought so 2 years ago. Never happened. Problem is, doctors cannot "not clear" a patient in concussions cases, because damages to the brain are almost impossible to identify, as long as they don't see swelling or bleeding. All they can do, is thoroughly inform the patient of the known and documented long term consequences of multiple concussions. And let him decide.
Argue that with his winning percentage, stats, the production of the skill players he plays with, compared their production with any other QB, however actual success and consistency can be measured for an individual player, in a team sport, he meets the criteria. Acting like he doesn’t is only doing yourself a disservice. It only points out your ignorance or your inability to be consistent in how you are judging players.
@@HawgWyldFishing okay so throw some stats out there. The only stats I care about are playoff win percentage and how many games he's missed. Don't say I'm ignorant when he has some of the best weapons and has absolutely nothing to show for it except a huge payday and more playoff losses to come
@@HawgWyldFishingYou’re a clown. He has the best WRs in the league and flames out in the playoffs every year worse than Dak. If you seriously think he’s a top 5 QB you might be more brain dead than Tua.

Definitely a top 3 qb. Just because he throws 3 picks Ina game doesn't make him bad. Burrow throws 3+ picks a game all the time lmao. First pick wasn't even tuas fault it was the best pass all day
@@finzfan47 you’re trolling right? Cause Tua has a weaker arm, worse decision making, less awareness, less durability, crumbles under pressure, and doesn’t know how to lead a team through adversity or raised stakes. Such a mark take
The Dolphins doctors will approve him because they just gave him a huge contract. Not sure if a non team doctor would approve him but even if they do, it’s still scary. We’ve seen other players who’ve taken less hits be a lot worse when they’re older
many players have endured worse than Tua over a longer career along with playing more physical positions, but now in 2024 with social media it’s under a much broader scope, I hope he comes back and balls out 💯
No other player went in fencing posture (unconsciousness / neurological shut down) twice in so many years. The man, unlike many other players past and present, is simply too fragile for NFL hits.
Imagine your tua, Monday you get hit and knocked out again. And on Wednesday you have people talking on a page as large as this about how Matthew stafford might get traded to take over your spot. I mean let’s give him some time to recover
@@del0ryan88terrible take, give the man time to recover before we start assuming trades. We don’t even know how long he’ll be out for other then 4 weeks
@@davidlonsway2396 put yourself in Tuas shoes as just getting your head knocked off and now people are talking about possible trades to take over the spot you’ve worked your entire life to get too. Not a week later after press releases have came out about exact time lines, 2 days after when they just announced he’ll be out 4 weeks. I could understand if they already said he’s out for the season
Bryce isn’t helping any team right now. Definitely not the team with an o line that requires the QB to get the ball out faster than anyone else in the league. You just think the o line in Carolina is bad. They paid the most consistently solid interior o lineman that Miami had on their roster this offseason. Miami didn’t bring in anybody to be an upgrade for that loss. They literally just kept the backups as the starters.
Feel like a lot of people are focused on short term determining if Tua is good. This is all about long term after his career is done on his 40s and 50s it's not worth the continued growing risk in my opinion.
Dolphins should just go out and get Trey Lance...he's been the Shanahan system & basically the same QB as Anthony Richardson except AR5 didn't have a 'Brock Purdy' filling in for him while injured.
If the nfl truly cared about its players they would force retire people… his head doesn’t get tougher with time. This is a disaster for him and if the nfl actually cared about head injuries like they claim to they would say hey man you gotta retire.
I mean he’s announced he isn’t retiring and at some point he’ll clear concussion protocol and be cleared to play so yeah it seems pretty likely he’ll play again
It doesn’t matter how much he loves football. The NFL is trying to make the sport safer while having a guy who gets knocked out every time he hits his head on Primetime. It’s a bad look
While I feel like Tua will play again if I'm honest not only do I feel like it shouldn't be with the Dolphins but also I’d be lying if I didn't say the chances of him not playing again are very high. Also, as I’ve said before this situation is yet another example of how the NFL hasn't taken concussions seriously even though to a degree I understand why because if they were to fully acknowledge the problem then it would destroy their brand & maybe even American football as a whole.
@Fragger89 There is NO chance those things were meant to slip off. They are soft with ridges. To slide past you want things to be hard and smooth. They work merely by having another layer of force absorption on top of what was already there. Though they really should have a hard layer on top of that to more widely distribute forces.
Yeah for everyone else (without his situation) it’s only as dangerous as walking across the street but with Tua it’s like walking across a highway….no shot you guys have to do mental gymnastics to understand that 😑
Bruh you can say what you want about it being Tua's choice, its also your choice as an organization to say that your team and football is more important than this man's future
Plus if it's ever found that his brain WAS significantly damaged then the team and league that would reasonably have known there was damage would be criminally liable should anything happen to Tua as a result of the brain damage. It's a BIG gamble to keep a guy that's had such visible issues.
My panthers greatest MLB Luke retired early due to 2 he got. He was great his last season but you could absolutely see he wasn't his prior self. Really sad
Meanwhile, we just cheer when UFC dudes get knocked out and concussed every weekend and never discuss CTE or retirement. A football player gets knocked out twice and we worry about his life and future and family.
Is this NOT the PERFECT example of a player finding a legitimate reason to play with a guardian cap!? If I'm concussion prone and they would allow it I would definitely be first in line. Just saying.
Any neurologist worth their weight should not clear him...years from now he won't be able to go outside in sunlight or to a shopping mall without issues.
Oh, they'll just bring in the same guy Alabama did years ago. Rolling into the game on a mobility scooter? Hopping around on one leg in warm-ups? Was apparently good to go for that "doctor".
The conversation shouldn’t be about if Tua should retire or not. If he’s cleared, he can and should play. It’s his life. The question should be if the Dolphins decide to stick with him now knowing the risk it brings every year. It’s been 2 years since the last concussion and he got one that severe, that easily. Hard to imagine moving forward this front office and coach wanting to place their careers in the hands of someone with that type of risk/history
Also, with his concussions being so visually problematic and also very much public there's no way they can claim ignorance. If something happens with/to Tua that gets traced back to the brain damage they can be held criminally liable for it.
do they dolphins want tua to come back? i mean if your franchise QB is that vulnerable to concussions winning a SB gets even harder....... imagine week 15-17 playing for the divison or number 1 Spot in the AFC 1 Sack lands on the Head and goes on IR Season over
Why on gods green earth would the Rams trade Stafford and a 3rd round pick for bryce young? The guy that the dumpster fire organization said isn’t good enough chase daniels out here with these stupid madden trades 😂
The Dolphins stepped up and did what none of you on this show would sack up and say. Someone has to step in and tell Tua he has to stop or he’s going to die on the field when he inevitably goes head first at a defender again.
This season is guaranteed. But if he chooses to retire instead of being forced to then the rest of the contract is voided. Which is probably part of why the Dolphins put him on IR before a doctor even said if he was fine or not. They don't want to be the ones to make the decision.
@nickmelin248 itll never happen. Miami is a failed franchise as long as front of house stays the same. I still can't believe they paid big money for tua. He has no progressions, terrible awareness, and a low football iq. Hes already too brain damaged to slide. Just keeps getting destroyed on nationally televised prime time games.
There is a difference between "you might get hit by a car when you cross the street" and literally playing Frogger in a busy intersection.
Tua should just go to his home and family and have a good time with is life.
No. Tua should do whatever he thinks is best for his family. If its retirement or playing peoples opinions are just that, an opinion.

Maybe maybe not. The medical field has come a loooong way in the last few decades
I think he should come back. What's one more concussion at this point
The Dolphins stepped up and did what none of you on this show would sack up and say. Someone has to step in and tell Tua he has to stop or he’s going to die on the field when he inevitably goes head first at a defender again.
His contact is guaranteed, why risk it. On be like adios 🎉
This season is guaranteed.
But if he chooses to retire instead of being forced to then the rest of the contract is voided.
Which is probably part of why the Dolphins put him on IR before a doctor even said if he was fine or not.
They don't want to be the ones to make the decision.
DTR to Miami?
dolphins will win 4 games this year if its skylar is the guy
As a dolphins fan, thats generous.
@@tonynicoletti8161 draft a qb who can run and take a hit knows how to slide
@nickmelin248 itll never happen. Miami is a failed franchise as long as front of house stays the same. I still can't believe they paid big money for tua. He has no progressions, terrible awareness, and a low football iq. Hes already too brain damaged to slide. Just keeps getting destroyed on nationally televised prime time games.
Skylar future HOF.
@@Richard-Reloaded stop it
