Briefly

Dolphins Q&A: Why has Tua regressed? Is his relationship with McDaniel deteriorating?
"Yes, it's somewhat deceiving because, in the loss to the Chargers, one was bobbled by Jaylen Waddle and another was on a last-ditch effort where Miami needed laterals anyway. There's no excuse for the ones against the Browns last Sunday, though. Not the weather, nor the ailing thumb on his throwing hand. Tagovailoa can't miss where he did to De'Von Achane in the flat, for the Tyson Campbell pick-six."
"He can't just let it go blindly right to Rayshawn Jenkins when under pressure in the end zone. And he just wasn't reading the defense when Ronnie Hickman picked him off later. Honestly, I look back at "Show me the money!" Since he made that declaration in front of fans at training camp upon getting that lucrative contract extension, I hate to say it, but it feels like he has changed."
Tua Tagovailoa has recorded back-to-back three-interception games, with some turnovers influenced by a Jaylen Waddle bobble and a late-game lateral situation, but others clearly on Tua. Poor throws included a miss to De'Von Achane that resulted in a Tyson Campbell pick-six, a blind throw to Rayshawn Jenkins under pressure, and a failure to read the defense on Ronnie Hickman's interception. The quarterback's demeanor shifted after proclaiming "Show me the money!" following his contract extension. Miami's offense has suffered key injuries: the veteran right guard exited three plays into the season, right tackle Austin Jackson later, Tyreek Hill suffered a devastating knee injury, and Darren Waller has a pectoral issue, all contributing to increased pressure and disrupted protection.
