00:12this sunday is 9 a.m tobin solana omar kelly chris perkins 9 a.m to 1 p.m getting you ready for the

00:21game in new york here's a dolphins q a question from david furonis in the sun sentinel somebody

00:28uh writes in in my opinion to a regressed a lot this season in almost every aspect of his game

00:35his accuracy got worse his mechanics look off sometimes his deep balls got worse and there's

00:41no money spot over the middle anymore i was a huge to a fan the last years how do you explain this

00:48regression and then the guy also writes can't be age maybe the money made him too satisfied

00:56i fear the concussions maybe made him regress faster than usual or was it just tyreek hill

01:01being out so here's what david furona says there's no doubt dolphins quarterback to a tongue of my low

01:06is having the worst season his worst season under head coach mike mcdaniel and that's with him being

01:11healthy all season at least in terms of not having to miss games sunday's game against the saints was

01:16just awful 12 of 23 157 yards an interception another throw that probably should have been called

01:23a pick on review four sacks he missed throws he usually makes even this year as his play is

01:31diminished he has made poor decisions like throwing deep to jalen waddle in the end zone on first down

01:36with kool-aid mckinstry waiting for the interception and then you have his slide

01:42short of a pivotal first down conversion on third down that leads to a fourth and one and a turnover on

01:48downs before new orleans nearly pulled off the epic comeback david furona's right i've been asked this

01:54before and i can't help but point to that show me the money moment after the contract extension i too

02:02would have never said that about to his character before it occurred he's too much of a fighter but

02:09there's a correlation there if not causation furona's continues there are a lot of other factors too

02:16he doesn't have tyreek hill now after having years of prime hill he has been without darren waller for

02:23much of the season he was without his two best starters on the right side of the offensive line

02:28his blind side blockers since week one but both right tackle larry boreham and right guard cole strange

02:35have been better in recent weeks while austin jackson is now back for boreham overall it's no it's all no

02:42excuse to have a passer rating of 55.9 against the saints and fail to get your team into the end zone

02:48after the opening drive to allow a two-win team to have multiple late chances to beat you

02:53tua is leading the league in interceptions i should never be so confident i'm going to win with a pick

03:00of tua tunga by loa plus over 0.5 interceptions over half interception in our prop bets piece says

03:07furona's i wouldn't go the route of blaming prior concussions for his play this season as insinuated

03:14as a possibility in the question but there has to be an answer i don't know what the answer is

03:20but it is interesting people are seeing the same exact stuff i think furona's points something out

03:25there which is you know we have heard of athletes getting fat and happy on contracts he got a massive

03:31contract he does seem to be fat and happy i'm not again i'm not suggesting that because i don't think

03:37that's his character but yeah there does there does seem to be something there he is he is noticeably

03:44and just you just eye test stuff and i know eye test now is get you a little going because the

03:51whole um college football playoff thing but there's an eye test thing that we see he's not the same

03:55tool he's not as quick he's not he has no explosiveness when he runs even his throws aren't

04:00his whole body he's flicking it with his wrist something physically is going on with him

04:05and he is regressing he's physically breaking down i don't know if it's forever or if it's

04:10something more than we know but i was listening because i drove up yesterday morning to orlando

04:15and i left at like 6 45 a.m i was listening to kyle crabs with joe rose and he said some stat about

04:23when two gets the ball out in 2.4 seconds you know he's his percentage goes up double to 70 percent

04:29anything after 2.4 it's almost a half like and all this stuff and it made me think to it doesn't

04:35scramble or run we started calling it shuffling because he's really not scrambling to do anything

04:40because he can't move he panics if he doesn't have his first read you just said it that over the throw

04:47timing route he throws to tyreek it's ty him knowing where tyreek is going to be exactly and he's making

04:53that decision before the ball is snapped i have single high tyreek's going to be right here i can

04:59just let it go and he's going to get there he scrambles is a panic he's not looking around he's

05:04not finding second receivers he's running because he has to and if the play is not there exactly how

05:10mcdaniels drew it up there is no way for him to complete it no way for him to make anything happen

05:16get knocked down that's what's going on also sometimes when it is there the way that it's drawn up

05:21he still seems to have the inability to get the ball there accurately and that's the physical side

05:26of it so he's and the panic i don't i think it comes from him not being that good and then when

05:34he does have it the physical side that he can't do anymore he can't make those throws that damn

05:38interception last week looked like little chan threw it up in the air said daddy go catch it

05:43that was embarrassing that safety that's not a 50 million not a pass hulk you could have picked

05:50that ball off in the middle of the field safety you would have got over there that ball was in

05:53the air so long that's not hitting the hole that's hitting kool-aid i love the man's name is kool-aid

05:58he hit kool-aid in the chest the receiver started playing defense on the man somebody asked me at

06:04disney they were like hey are we gonna keep two around i said we are because we owe him 55 million

06:09dollars we have to keep him around what what what what question are you asking me is he gonna be here

06:16next year or is it a good decision because those are two different things might be the only decision

06:21i think he's hurt but he's not escaping the tyreek hill merchant accusations he's just not well i mean

06:30you can't at this point because there's a noticeable drop-off and tyreek's not there so you have to be

06:35able to make at least the assumption that that's part of it but solano why are they why are they

06:42concealing or holding back the you know i hate when they do that coach can probably speak to it

06:48on the next segment i hate when teams do that remember they did it with kachok during the stanley

06:52cup finals i hate when they don't tell you and then afterwards they say you know he played the

06:57entire season with a thorax in his neck right but because if they come out if they come out right now

07:03or if tua says hey yeah actually i'm dealing with a really bad groin issue or i'm dealing

07:08with plantar fascia or i'm dealing with whatever then nobody's gonna have sympathy for them they're

07:13you know what they're gonna say oh excuses well why didn't you say it when you got injured i i'm

07:18with you if you say it now it sounds like you're doing damage control but when you get injured why

07:23not let everybody know you're injured i'm playing i'm playing at 80 this season i'm i'm toughing it out

07:29at 80 because everybody's just gonna say oh they're looking for sympathy they're looking for excuse

07:33making and that's not acceptable in the nfl i mean you that people do that all the time uh with

07:38guys in the nfl and it's different with kachok he didn't have the best series in that stanley cup

07:44final but guess what you're in the stanley cup final i mean the dolphins are two games below 500

07:49all i was saying though was hey what would have been the harm in saying hey matthew kachok is playing

07:53with a broken sternum like what would have been the harm in letting everybody know i didn't i don't

07:57understand why that stuff's such a secret it would it would be a advantage for the other team to try

08:03to hit him in the chest people like powder got her new right away you go right for the sternum

08:08yeah i i would say that but also with tua it's not just an excuse it perpetuates him being injury prone

08:14right oh he's hurt again he hurt his hip last year but then it's like uh it's like uh uh six to one

08:21half a dozen to another what would what would you rather be known as the terrible quarterback or the

08:25injured quarterback because those are your only two choices i should have told y'all my foot was sore

08:32when i was letting him tight right i'm not really terrible i happen to be dinged up i'm injury prone

08:38real quick headlines because jim laranega is going to join us in the next segment i want to have enough

08:43time with him so headlines brought to you by darrell kia home of the pricito our lowest price

08:48visit them at darrell kia or darrell kia.com one of the things you brought up kyle krabs one of the

08:53things he wrote in uh an article a couple hours ago or a couple days ago i don't know if it's too early

08:59to look at backup quarterback speculation for next season if two was back but kyle krabs put together

09:04a list i'll run it by both of you but i know hawk is big backup quarterback talk guy so maybe we can

09:11do that later i'm happy to that's my real post it's his favorite position is there a thorax injury is

09:19there did i make up uh what is a thorax like it's something in your chest i believe that a dr seuss

09:26character no that's the lorax oh my bad all right oh thorax chest region of the body located between

09:35the neck and the abdomen yeah look at that who hasn't had a sore thorax every now and then

09:39hawk you said he had a thorax in his neck

09:42imagine how painful that would be that would explain a lot of the overthrows

09:49get him kachuk jesus christ

09:53uh we talked about the yannis antedicumpo shams bomb

09:59and um the miami heat tonight speaking of the nba the miami heat they play the dallas mavericks

12:28flacco to the division they trade the only backup quarterback that was worth a damn they drafted

12:32two quarterbacks the most controversial quarterback they benched them then he has to come in now they
