@PodBeingMyself @GeorgeMatt44229 @OmarKelly Get your own takes instead of using mine. Don’t watch Tau’s highlights, watch his games last year. Unwatchable. Thats what you will be getting.

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@PodBeingMyself @GeorgeMatt44229 @OmarKelly Did you think about why MIA chose to get rid of him? Never won a big game. Lost his confidence. Can’t play off script or avoid sacks or run at all. Oh, can no longer throw it over 30 yards. And is a concussion away from missing big time. Enjoy your mini camp highlights though.

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@GeorgeMatt44229 @PodBeingMyself @OmarKelly Sure. No disagreement. Let’s agree that when his rookie WRs can’t create significant separation this season that his running ability will be much appreciated as he moves the chains and extends plays

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@GeorgeMatt44229 @PodBeingMyself @OmarKelly Willis started 1 game in 2025. Faulty comparison George.

@PodBeingMyself @GeorgeMatt44229 @OmarKelly Have fun with Tua this year.

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@GeorgeMatt44229 @PodBeingMyself @OmarKelly When did I ever say running was the most important aspect? My point was that the running component hasn’t gotten any recognition. In addition to passing, he could run for 750-1000 more yards on top of his passing numbers. Ewers can’t do that.

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@GeorgeMatt44229 @OmarKelly We don’t need another pocket only passer, how did the last one work out? Today’s game needs a QB that can do other things than pocket pass only. Who says Malik can’t do the things you mention. My guess is the new regime wouldn’t have committed to him if he couldn’t “also” do that

@ncaasoftballstf Inside pitches does not equal intentionally hitting the batter

Top 10 all time movie for sure

[Matthew Modine @MatthewModine]

I’m often asked about the pegboard scene in VISION QUEST. That was all me. No stunt doubles or safety measures. I trained for a long time and had to climb it several times to get all the angles. The “trick” is not to over extend, so you’d be pulling up your entire body weight. You have to keep it compact. Arms and elbows tight. 💪🏽

@KyleCrabbs @AtoZSportsNFL He’s more valuable than a random 3rd. Helps set the tone and attitude for the new defense which is invaluable.

Couldn’t agree with you more!!

[Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz]

I respect all opinions. If the Willis doubters end up right -- and if the Dolphins regime that watched him every day AND South Florida media AND 3 longtime NFL quarterbacks AND other ex-players (D. Woody) & NFL executives (Riddick) with network TV jobs & everyone else who praised Willis and this signing are wrong - so be it. But if you are a Dolphins fan, I don't know why you would gloat and celebrate if you end up being right; that wouldn't be becoming IMO. Regardless, Dolphins will have cap room and wherewithal to find another QB if this doesn't work out.

[Rich Basen @RichBasen]

@flasportsbuzz @WarbieSon New regime has zero ties to him, roster spots are too valuable to waste, he’s clearly regressed, can’t play in cold weather, shrinks in big games, lousy in front of a mic, I could go on and on….
