Transcription

What insights did Greg share about Tua's status in the NFL?

1221.531 - 1223.433 Billy

Thank you. Finally you get it.

It oddly happens with starting quarterbacks inside the AFC East.

No, no, no. And by the way, lacking also in the analysis is it's a big game against a team which – Dolphins fans, forgive me on the front end for saying this – a team that's arguably better than you, forgive me, arguably better than you, and then in those instances, Tua sometimes tries to make things happen that aren't necessarily there, and that's when he gets in trouble.

He tries to extend a play. He tries to dive headfirst for first down. That's when things get in trouble. Forgive me. I just, someone mentioned it, and I thought, you know what? Maybe. Maybe that's something that's a fear. It's something to be worried about, a concern. But again, this is a great opportunity to dispel a lot of this.

That's all that was said I think I've heard some murmurs worried that playing this opponent on holiday usually also means Tua gets a concussion.

1274.093 - 1295.244 Stugotz

I haven't heard such things. I find everything around him to be wildly interesting because he's the epicenter, Stugatz, of how that position matters, how that sport matters, our conundrum at the crossroads between, wow, we really like violence, not that much, and should he retire?

1295.404 - 1313.293 Stugotz

And I'm sitting next to a longtime columnist I accused of being a homer the last time he was in here, and we enraged him by having his wife come on and say, yeah, he roots for the Dolphins. He has said the Dolphins were going to win the Super Bowl last year. Tua is at the center of all of that hope. He has been very protective of Tua.

1313.393 - 1319.958 Stugotz

And even he says, one more concussion on Thanksgiving night while America's watching, and he needs to retire.

1320.578 - 1342.514 Chris Cote

No, I actually didn't say it quite that way. What I said was, I think the next... Bad concussion. And there are different types of concussions. I think the next bad concussion will see him retire. I didn't say that he would need to. I always think it should be the player's decision. I never think it should be the media's decision or the fans' decision or the team's decision.
