You smeared people for years who wouldn’t hire flores and you also smeared tua for years simply cause you rooted for Flores and took his word it turns out Flores is nothing but a manipulative bully who ruins people you should be ashamed of yourselves
Lots of his teammates didn’t believe in him either, they’re still on the team. Business of football at play.
Flores wanted Love not Herbert
He did not say Coach Flores was terrible. He said Flores said that about Tua [repeatedly]
Brian Flores wanted Jordan Love not Herbert
Flores great on defensive side but as a head coach and trying to be on the offensive side I know everyone is different but once tua got the right coach he did way much better sure he didn’t win the big games but they believe in him so he gets paid and long the team is 60% healthy and produce enough they will win
Grier wanted Tua not Ross Grier was in love with Tua since he threw that td pass in the national championship game. This show sucks and never has the facts straight
So glad lebetard got this sound bite and EVERYONE is talking about it
My only problem with this is, Nick saban is out of the bill belichick tree and is very close to him. You had the same coaching style in college and you didn’t have a problem with this in Alabama
Talking shh without knowledge. Flores had chances to improve the offense and choose defense instead.
Flores wanted Joe burrow but Miami didn’t want to Tank for Him
Listen to how ridiculous Lewis Riddick sounds, “when they win, it’s because of Tyreek, when they lose, it’s because of Tua.” Riddick acted as though, Tyreek is both the QB and the RB. I guess Tua is just on the side line collecting his weekly paycheck. Meanwhile, Tyreek is out on the field playing the QB and the WR position. I guess Tyreek is so fast that when the ball is snapped, Tyreek throws the ball up in the air and runs in the direction that Tyreek throws it himself and catches the ball.
This is why Riddick is up in the studio, yapping his mouth and NOT playing.
It’s ironic that with the amount of people that doesn’t believe in Tua or think he has to prove more, within the same amount of time (last two years), Tua has done more (lead the league) and turned himself around than the QB that Flores wanted to pay for (Watson) and trade Tua away.
I knew before I clicked the video that the criticism (if any) toward Flores would be minimal.
All Might McDaniels: Tua, you can be a hero!
Tua about to have his worst year
Sound soft to me
Who cares? You make millions, suck it up. Play for a few years and retire, now if this was just a regular job, then we can talk about it. this is a non issue, coaches come and go, so do players. The excuse doesn’t change the fact you are not that good so blame it on the coach? Okay, you do you.
none of these analysts had KC winning superbowl… I hate when they put curses on teams
Tua and the dolphins can’t win in the cold. This why the wanted Herbert. Tua is mediocre at best
