    Lifelong Phins fan here. Fitzpatrick has been good for the most part this year but once the games start mattering his play goes down hill big time. You look last year towards the second half of the year when the games didn’t matter he was slinging it all over the field. We beat New England in Foxboro last game of the year.....

    Miami is 1 game back in the division. You know what you have in Fitzpatrick but let’s see what we got with Tua in some meaningful games here. I like this move

    its one of those seemingly aggressive moves where youre doing ok but think u can do better. in most circumstances since youre fixing something that isnt broken then you better be right, only this is a little different since tua is the guy u drafted 5th and see as being the future and theyre looking at it like the sooner the better, the quicker the lumps the better. normally I dont like to see a guy doing well pulled and I like fitz, sometimes he's good sometimes not so much, he's 38 been in the league a long time and has only had 1 season where he finished with a winning record in a season that he started more than 3 games. looking at that history its probably easier to make the decision now, after all fins are 3-3 not like they are 6-0 or 5-1

    i just think if miami didnt blow out the jets and tua didnt get to see the field for those 5 snaps, would they still make this decision? i dont think so.

    I'm not even sure the Fins care about winning now. It's almost like they're afraid Fitz will keep winning and they'll have no choice but to let him remain the starter, so they're making the switch now before they experience too much success and the Tua ship sails.

    3 out of last 4 blowout wins, but none the less solid wins on both sides of the line/ball.

    Send Fitz to Cleveland.
    Mayfield is the bust of the decade and is the single reason why the Browns suck ass.

    This normally doesn’t happen when a team is playing well(won last 2 games convincingly). I would be shocked if Tua plays better than Fitz his first few starts or even the rest of the season.

    It’s why the dolphins continue to fail as an organization....removing a QB that has them one game back from first to put in an unproven rookie....they will fail miserably now

    Fitz with a bad look on Sportcenter this morning complaining and saying his heart is broken....you do that internally if anything and blindly support Tua publicly.

    This will be Fitz' last season in Miami I bet.

    Trade Fitz for Dalton. Dalton’s value is pretty low right now and Dallas needs someone who is heartbroken not just broken

    why in the hell rush the kid??!!...Fitz is playing well enough and has kept Miami in playoff contention and near atop of the standings...Flores should take a page out of Andy Reid's book and just let Tua sit on the bench for his first year and watch and learn from the sidelines...give him a chance to study teams, coverages, game situations, and other nuances of the game...kind of like what Reid did with Patrick Mahomes in his rookie season when Alex Smith was the starter...and we all know what happened the following year when he was named the full time starter in his second year.

    sure thing...in the meantime, while the kid struggles and figures shit out, Miami will lose games and there goes the season and playoffs right down the drain...yeah, makes perfect sense...yes, Fitz can be erratic at times but it is what it is...he gives the dolphins the best chance to win NOW, not later...and unless he really shits the bed and/or Miami is officially eliminated from playoff contention, Fitz is and should be the starting QB for the rest of the season...it will definitely be interesting to see how this situation unfolds and plays out.

    It's stupid is what it is. Common sense says let Fitz start until they are out of contention, not now, then move him at season's end.

    This is a joke.

    I can’t really disagree with anything you said, but I will say I’m excited to see how the kid does. It’s not a certainty they will lose & not make the playoffs, so we’ll see ...
