Poupart: “Tua was not better in 23 than 22, his qb rating was Lower and other statistics were down.” 1 minute later Omar: Wilkins had a better year than Williams, his numbers were better. Poupart: it’s not all about statistics 🤣🤣🤣🤣 what a joke

[@joec8942]

Yet Tua still chokes in the clutch.

[@InFinZible]

He’s a hater lol

[@throwthe9route92]

5:51 8:21 I know Poupart can contradict himself or be inconsistent at times, but he tries his best. Cut him some slack.

[@IM-A-TUA-DISCIPLE]

You guys work so well together I love this episode. Ty

[@billybob4589]

Omar, did you see Campbell signed a 2 million dollar deal? You said a few episodes ago that he wasn't getting out of bed for less than 6 million

[@Jonny0nline]

The X/Fuller debate is a perfect example of why it's hard to take Omar seriously. The question is are they better this year? And Omar goes on to argue who has had the better career?

[@carlbueckert3441]

This was a nice treat today - thank you

[@alokmehta6827]

I love how Poupart looks at Tua’s stats when they support his narrative. Watch the games man, he was clearly better last year. Deep throws, accuracy and staying healthy. I think McDaniel is largely to blame during crunch time due to his poor and delayed play calling.

[@joec8942]

Tua apology tour

[@itzlegion123]

What about the the games that matter? say Tua hasn’t performed well enough with what he has around him.

[@alokmehta6827]

@@itzlegion123 McDaniel has been terrible in those games. Not consistently running the ball, being too Tyreek dependent and not getting plays out in time.

[@mactownsend2890]

​@@alokmehta6827He has no plan B, C against the better opponents.

[@michaellombardo7788]

Great show glad to c u 2 together ❤️

[@askeweats7890]

X has been done for two years. Fuller is definitely bettet

[@TiberiusGracchusII]

as a Dolphin fan since the early 70s I've probably heard it all, but this channel makes me laugh hysterically sometimes when they cover the Dolphins. And who can really take Omar Kelly seriously at this point any longer....Or have folks even done that lately ?? I haven't for years.

[@chrisortiz370]

Thanks Omar & Alain Great show as always!

[@emilionarvaez1415]

Panthers!!!!! NHL champions!!!! 💪

[@stevev7191]

Good speak Gentlemen miss this dynamic

[@MattNewton]

I would be happy if Liam Eichenberg is a swing interior lineman with focus on backup center. Any job as a starter would leave me a bit queasy.

[@pauldelray5839]

With Panther's win of the Stanley Cup the only professional club in Florida without a championship since 2000 is the Dolphins. Mr. Ross will have coach McDaniel on his radar this year. Another mid - year collapse or December fade against good teams and a winless play-off game tests owner's patience; regardless of individual player improvement.

[@tntmottley]

The two of you together are great! Thanks for keeping the guest appearances going

[@mads7344]

Hey guys, thank you I love when you are together. Best Phins content anywhere. Do you think they would try to turn Achane into more of a WR type? Like Hill transitioned to WR after being a RB in college?

[@askeweats7890]

X has more interceptions than J Ramsey but Ramsey is a wayyyyyyyy better football player and corner than X

[@cambridgesqaureboy]

Omar is a star!

[@RonMorisseau]

Are you related to him?

[@user-gq7do1wm9g]

I like the fact that both of these guys are highly opinionated. Not saying I agree with all of their opinions...but I like hearing their justifications for their opinions.

[@jay1364]

Great show guys loved it 🏈😀👍

[@thatdolphinsrealtor]

We have to remember the Alain thought the Oilers in game 7 was a sure bet…🤣

[@twalsh4019]

I come for the married couple interaction more than Dolphins info.

[@6193asnf]

very good episode!

[@DeadHer0]

BEST DUOOO 😁💙

[@roguebossa]

Good discussion, 2 things: if Brewer stays healthy it might be an upgrade in a way because OL cohesion matters, consistency, injuries are disruptive. Next, certain Tua metrics might've fallen off slightly last year while recovering from the concussion, but he gained toughness and better dexterity.

[@jasondouple4382]

Please get back together on a podcast full time!

[@bmglifeent8039]

Couldn’t miss this for the world

[@NJPhins3153]

Good show.

[@dondrealston7379]

Keep the collaborations going 🐬🆙

[@eltonjah5669]

Canuck is talking just to talk. Tua was significantly better in 23. Just struggled at the end.

[@courthaven]

I love how Poop, who always says that stats don't matter, never fails to jump to the metrics to use against Tua. Same old and tired song and dance that he's done for 300 episodes.

[@JohnBaruch10]

Poup you forget how great Mostert was in San Francisco, yes he can put up similar numbers.

[@mannyneyra6940]

Best duo sports talk 👍

[@roguebossa]

Instead of only focusing on wins and playoffs and such, focus on improving areas that were thin last time, focus on improvement in every small and big area, and the wins will come.

[@Robert-gs4xk]

Malik, OBJ, Smith..... That is. Tua needs to distribute the ball!

[@Robert-gs4xk]

So you're telling me that the receivers on the roster couldn't take more snaps than Cedric and Chris drafted the Washington bros for what. Malik will be the 3/4 receiver. Welker knows how to coach a 5'8" quick fireplug with outstanding catch radius.

[@joefried6604]

X vs Fuller Debate Last Season: X PFF rating 55 Fuller Rating &3 ( TOP 10 NFL ) Picking FULLER 99 percent of the time . X ran 4.44 combine … He may be 4.65 at best now …. Coupled with NEW WR ‘a now running SUB 4.40 …. ------ Short yardage or Goal line ? Xavier can dominate and is much better than Fuller in that spot . Super Bowl on the LINE ? X can really help a team X simply too slow now DON’t forget about CAM SMITH who may emerge mid season

[@Robert-gs4xk]

The real question is will Tua get him the ball, or over use Hill and Waddle so they're injury riddled come December?

[@LeaveItToTheWolves]

Am I the only one that really misses these two being together daily for us to watch? I personally don’t enjoy the content coming from either of them nearly as much without each other as I did with them together.

[@pipemanslim8659]

Good show, miss you two! 🐋 🐳 🐋 🐳

[@PhinsTakeWithCB83]

7:30 it’s a better season overall because he stayed healthy and played good football. You’re taking 2023 over 2022 because he’s available. The best ability is availability!

[@Tommi265]

When a 😶‍🌫️canadian😶‍🌫️ guy just wants to downtalk players you cant stop him. But who cares anyway? 😛.

[@carlhurd4207]

Anthony Walker is a thumper. We lacked that last year. But he gets hurt a lot.

[@richardkeys5214]

Fuller will tackle X was avoiding tackles.

[@joefried6604]

O - LINE We put 70 on Denver WHY ? We had Wynn, Conner Williams , HUNT CENTER massive drop off Right Guard Massive drop off MOVEMENT ? 💪 Remember HUNT is a tackle Connor Williams is a guard BOTH Extremely Athletic for Center / Guard positions Pass rush there will be some drop off . 🛑 Major problem and drop off ? BLOCKING ?🛑 We run ZONE Blocking SCHEME : Zone. Blocking “ REquires “ Line to scrape off to the 2nd and third levels .. O- lineman NOT just concerned with the POINT OF Attack ( D- Line ) PROBLEM 🛑 NEXT LEVEL LINE BACKERS who l are playing 7 yards of the Line of scrimmage Interior Lineman. MUST be extremely Athletic! 1) quick twitch 2) Loosest hips 3) Ballerina / RB type FOOTWORK 😡 Liam Eichenberg is FRANKENSTEIN. He is can’t play guard in our offense . ( NY Giants Offense he can plan guard )

[@Ryanmazzarellaedc]

How do you talk AVG with bringing up the injury ?

[@peelslowly28]

I doubt it. The offense just can't get any better than what it is already, and this defense is brand new and untested. On top of that, we might be dealing with a disgruntled Tua who thinks he's Joe Burrow.

[@CMBJASON]

Tua realist, and I’ve criticized Tua in many areas. With that being said, he’s improved every year, and he’s still a 13-14th ranked Quarterback.

[@PhinsTakeWithCB83]

1:55 Flucky? How can you discredit a team for making plays down the stretch? Thats the entire point of the game.

[@jaytor15]

I swear Poopart is a Bills fan 😂

[@juancruz9168]

That season they live off turnover’s you know they never me game that season they over 7 points that what he means I was happy they made playoffs that season but I’m also realistic dolphins fan and knew they wasn’t going that far that season

[@trufan7358]

Noah signed with Washington pretty early

[@bartdepalma3820]

Grier assembled another great roster on paper. BUT, until the Dolphins stay NFL average healthy, finish strong and win playoff games, same old cursed Dolphins. I went through this with the Red Sox Curse of the Bambino until 2004. Now, its the #CurseOfThePerfectSeason.

[@bigmikebaby85]

🔥🔥🔥

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

If the Dolphins don't get a LG and a rg , they are going down hill. They say they are going to get ol if these guys are not playing well or get hurt.If they really do that we may be ok.

[@dillonmedina7551]

Noah signed with Washington it seems

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Looks like the dolphins got a lot of cheap players but we had one of the best defenses in the NFL and we got rid of a lot of our good defensive players and are replacing them with cheap players so I am afraid it's going to be a big disappointment, hope I'm wrong, but this sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Plus will everybody be able to work well when we have so many new players and also a new defensive coach. Why did we lose so many defensive players at one time? Plus we didn't replace Hunt. We should have kept Hunt. We should have kept Wilkins and Van Ginkel also Rakwon Davis. We had a great team last 2 years so we should have kept our player, probably going to be a questionable defense and missing Robert Hunt, looks like our season is going to be a disaster. Replacing great players with cheap players is probably not going to work, very unrealistic. I see a 9-8 season and missing the playoffs but if we squeak in hopefully by the end of the season they start to click and we make a Superbowl run.

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Can't say that because in 2022 he was out due to concussion.

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Brooks is good but they still should have kept Van Ginkel.

[@johnhoke6055]

Please hire poupart so we can have this back everyday

[@happyevelyn]

FLORIDA PANTHER PARADE SUNDAY 11 AM FT LAUDERDALE BEACH!!!

[@AbadaWeeeeeeee]

We are still paying Byron Jones 10 million in dead cap this year. Disgusting. The dead money for players that aren’t on the team anymore is pretty telling about how the GM is performing. 29 million in dead cap for 2024 with players we don’t have 😢

[@dolfan984]

Iggy is with Washington. 250k guaranteed.

[@phaight547]

Why is he on in florida

[@ryanloporto8798]

Poup!

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Losing Hunt van Ginkel and Wilkins is going to put the Dolphins behind the 8 ball.

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Yes because you have to consider inflation

[@jackthompson-ew8uk]

Hope omar isn't shilling for agents and accepting cash. Could you ask him if he is?

[@JohnBaruch10]

So you want to go another 2.5 decades looking for another QB? Instead of developing one that has looked the best even better than Chad P, in my opinion”Taken voice Good Luck”

[@B-ROB803]

Phinz UP

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

No it's a huge downgrade losing Christian Wilkins

[@JML1925]

Hilarious!😂

[@jerryfagolimul8676]

Without Tua nothing can happen to win.

[@GuccVarucc]

Brooks way better than baker wats wrong with y’all

[@fparker5]

Chase Edmunds was trash too

[@brucewilson9958]

A Weaker oline, not good.

[@rustymiller194]

Who’s unemployed and who isn’t, who’s likely to be serving some time in Jail and who isn’t, Omar?????

[@jamesgray3140]

poop coming to the herald?

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

Another huge downgrade is Hunt for eckenberg .

[@MarkFowler-tu2cn]

He can't be that good if he is only getting 2 million a year.

[@TimothyRitchey]

Hey Poopart, lay off Tua, he's the best QB this team has had since Marino and there's no doubt about it. So get on board or get out of the way.

[@abenito74]

That’s says more about the dysfunction of the organization since Marino retired.

[@phinfanforever]

If Grier fails and doesn't sign Tua this offseason, do we let him keep his job? How do you draft a player in the top 5, develop him, build a team around him, and then let him play on his 5th year option? This Grier is dumb af. Period. No QB can play with this football team built for Tua. Why? No QB has a quicker release, all while being the NFLs most accurate passer and yards leader. Grier built a marshmellow Oline. He brought in an overpaid center that is as tiny as a hamster. Let our right guard probowl guard walk to replace with a side salad in robert Jones, and now he doesn't want to pay our qb market value when he is worth more than what the market is offering. I seriously feel we need to replace the owner and GM after this season. Tua will ball out, Tua will be an FA, and Tua is going elsewhere to play out his career where he is wanted, as he should. Sad part is, we won't be able to draft a Generational Talent like Tua for possibly another 40 years. Smh. Hate Greir

[@jorgefernandez5231]

Consistently irritated by Tua put downs

[@roguebossa]

It wasn't that bad, like it is sometimes 🙃

[@jorgefernandez5231]

Can’t stand this guy

[@curtisdunn7112]

No 7-10 season and 3rd best team in there own division there not winning anything with Tua behind center

[@Alawishous]

No Matter whatc Poupart says He's a Tua Hater He will dig up anything to support his Narrative you should work For Fox Sports because everything you say sounds like the same garbage that Cowturd, Nick Wright & Skip Bayless!
