We were wrong.
That’s the only reasonable conclusion we can come to at this point, after Tua Tagovailoa and Mike McDaniel did it again; after they outshot another great quarterback, broke your fantasy football scoring system and proved their offense is harder to kill than a plastic houseplant.
We were wrong to doubt the quarterback, to paint him as injury prone, to diminish him as a product of the system, to take digs at his fitness. Did you see the game-winning touchdown he threw against the Chargers on Sunday? A goal-line fade to a wide receiver the size of your middle school basketball league’s power forward? That isn’t a throw for a puppet quarterback. That’s a one-putt through the windmill on hole 18 of the world’s most ridiculous mini-golf course. He did it with time winding down on the road with one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL sitting on the opposite bench.
