OT: Duke Johnson is home

Are we really gonna go over all this again? Without him this O can’t do anything and with him we’re the 16th best passing offense in the NFL. He’s top 5 in accuracy and I also believe he’s top 10 in QBR. He had an average game after 6 really good ones. Can we give the kid a break for once?
Fair take but also…Tua made some very poor decisions today. He made some good throws as well, but overall this was not a good day for him. Defense and run game bailed him out IMO. Which is fine…it’s a team game. He has been lights out the last 3 weeks.

Exactly. Is he flawed? Yea but these type of games are a lesser occurrence this year. That’s a sign of growth.
 
198 yards 2 int, 2 TD’s sounds very average! And it was the JETS!
Ok? He had an average game. Did you bother to check in for the last 6? You bother to check he’s one of the most accurate QBs in the league(top 5 actually) and is top 10 in QBR? Did you bother to watch how anemic this Offense was when he was hurt? People are allowed to have an average game once in a while.

I honestly don't understand why Duke isn't higher on the Dolphins depth chart. Their running back room is garbage.

They need to go and draft a first round back to help Tua.
When we were on the clock with our 3rd 1st round pick in 2020, I really thought that with CEH, Swift, and Taylor still on the board, that we were going to pick one of them. But they tried to outsmart the room and took Iggy. Heck, Taylor was still there when we took Hunt.

Swift would’ve been a perfect pick but noooooooppppppeeeee. Nickel back is more importante apparently.
 
So happy for Duke. I hope he holds down the starting spot for the Titans game in two weeks. Will be there to see it.
Happy for Duke as well. Duke should easily be bare minimum a 2nd string RB for the foreseeable future. As long as we have the RB stable that we have, Duke should be the clear cut starter. Phins need to draft a quality RB and keep Duke around next year.

Hahaha. That pick made no sense for multiple reasons. Oh yeah, Dobbins was still out there too and had a heck of a rookie year.
 
It should be him and Lindsey. Duke can get No. 1 reps with the Lindsey combo being a different pace.
I still think gaskin has some value as a change of pace, but he is really bad in pass pro. Duke, surprisingly, was really good at that today. He had two big blitz pickups. At UM he was always willing but would try to hit guys low too often, and they would jump him to get to the QB.

If Duke has improved his pass pro he would be the perfect complement to Lindsay’s physical style. Heck, Duke was physical AF today! He ran like his hair was on fire.
