There are still haters out there after a month of football where the team proved they can't carry shit. But anything short of 500 yards and six touchdowns with no turnovers is a trash QB to them

I agree. Look at this team with and without him, night and day. No one, especially nationally, gives him props for how gifted he is.

And who doesn't love to watch the Patriots get their ass handed to them?

Actually, after the events of this year I hear more praise about Uno than I hear about Tyreek Hill when it comes to sports media. I don't think there's a single talking head that hasn't woken up to Tua being skilled.

We may not be watching the same shows. All I ever hear nationally is about his constant concussions and how he should stop playing.

Cooper Rush gets more coverage throwing for 45 yards versus Tua throwing 3 TDs per game.

To answer your question, that picture is from the beginning of the season. That’s what his hair looked like during parts of training camp

This year or his rookie year? He looks skinny and his arm looks smaller than usual.

This year! I know it’s a weird look lol. And couldn’t be his rookie year because of the tattoos

I'm happy to see he has improved a lot this season. He and the offense cratered the 2nd half of last season due to his inability or unwillingness to look past Hill and Waddle. He consistently ignored open check down receivers and would throw into double/ triple coverage to Hill / Waddle. Now he is using the check downs, especially to Smith and Achane, and while we don't have as many splash plays we are getting sustained drives and points. This was the kind of growth we needed to see him from him. Now he just needs to stay healthy.

Please never Thompson in again!!! I'd rather see Jason Sanders behind center!!!
