Re: Skylar’s push for Dolphins 53-man roster
Was the constant running down of play clock due to plays coming in late? To me it appeared that way. That only led to more pressure on Skylar imo. That was frustrating and something we've experienced in the past in MHK.

I believe so. I think part of it has to do with having a rookie coach in his 1st playoff game.
On the last delay of game violation on 4th and 1, the coach is also claiming that he heard from “upstairs” that they had made the 1st down. It was too late by the time he realized what was happening. The problem was also confounded by the fact that the team didn’t have any time-out left to stop the clock.

There was a cryptic tweet from Tua yesterday. Not exactly clear what it means:
Tua. T
@Tua
When one chapter ends, another begins. Proud of this last one, excited for the next one!

Perhaps he's referring to the season as a chapter? I imagine if chapter meant his career, they would be announcing his retirement due to repeated concussions, but perhaps it's something that would be made official during the week?

It wouldn’t surprise me if he were to make the decision to leave the game for good. He has proven that he is very vulnerable to concussions. And he is probably causing irreversible damage to his brain.
The Dolphins are trying to work with him on safer ways to go down when tackled to protect against the back of his head slamming the turf, like what transpired with his concussions this season. But I just don’t see how the Dolphins can continue to view him as a dependable #1 quarterback. I think we will see the Dolphins get a veteran quarterback this off-season either to lead the team next season or at least be ready to step in when and if Tua goes down again.
