Tua is the best college QB that I've ever seen.

Now, that could change when he plays some better defenses down the stretch.
But this guy is unbelievable.

D Watson is at a different level. I agree.

It's obviously too early to truly tell, but as a college QB

at this point, he looks like a junior DW4.
Watson had some major struggles in the "lesser games" that we choose not to remember. But when you needed him in the 4th quarter, he was amazing.
Tua brought them back in the Natty and showed that he has that same calming quality. Like I said, too early to really tell, but he is special.

I don't think you are factoring in the team he is playing behind. They can't get any pressure on him. He is not close to Watson at any point. Ole Miss is getting no pressure.

In a clutch situation, give me DW4.
Sep 15, 2018, 8:20 PM

But my overall point is that Bama found an incredible QB.
That's very scary. Fortunately, their defense is not what it has been.

His offensive line is a complete mismatch vs Ole Miss Dline too. His r's are great too. He also has great WR's. There are a lot of QB's through history that would look as good as he does in this situation. Tua is really good. Best ever? Nah.

elusiveness and wheels on a thicker frame. We will see if he has the other things that made Watson great but I think he actually has better arm talent.

Michael Vick and Charlie Ward were both way better.

Disagree - Neither Ward nor Vick could pass in the same

neighborhood as Tua ... and I saw them all in person and on TV. Call me loyal, but I will take DW4 in pressure games and situations.
But Bama coaches have balls - they play their best QB and coach him up to take advantage of any and all weaknesses in the Defense on any given play.

Both could pass way better actually. Vick lead the nation is pass efficiency one year. He was just was blazing fast too. Ward was an amazing passer as well. Both had much stronger arms too. I agree that Watson was better than Tua as well.

Regardless of where the stats end up Tua is a better passer than Vick
Sep 15, 2018, 8:32 PM

Vick was insanely good but a lot of that was due to his legs. He did have a cannon for an arm but he was pretty raw as a thrower.
I mean Vince Young was probably a really efficient passer in college too.

Vick had a strong arm ... but see below facts

Vick
Career Virginia Tech (Two Seasons 1999/2000)
Completions / Attempts / Percentage / Yards / Avg Yds Attempt / TD's / Int / YPC / Rating
192 / 343 / 56.0 / 3299 / 9.4 / 21 / 11 / 5.5 / 150
Tua Bama (4 games)
Completions / Attempts / Percentage / Yards / Avg Yds Attempt / TD's / Int / YPC / Rating
74 / 113 / 65.5% / 1091 / 9.6 / 8 / 0 / 6.4 / 233
Incomplete body of work for Tua but compares favorably to Vick and much more accurate with passing.

Charlie Ward was one of the best. Joe Montana was great. But we had two captains on the field today that could hold their own

Didn’t Ole Miss give up 38 points in the 1st half last week against Southern Illinois?

Keep in mind that tua cut his teeth last year. He played a lot of games. Plus he was groomed all spring and summer as the starter. So when you compare him, compare what he does this season to what DW4 did his sophomore year.
Also, as others have stated he has 10 studs around him. DW4 had maybe 5 or 6 around him at any given time.
I know tua has to execute but a lot of it could be the coordinator getting ready for the week too. I see it as DW4 ran the offense and prepared himself. Just saying.

My statement was some hyperbole
Sep 15, 2018, 8:57 PM

And didn't intend for a Watson Tua debate as I think Watson was incredible and has more upside as a pro.
I just think Tua looks like an incredible college QB.
But yes it's early and he's got great talent around him
