The Dolphins made the understandable but shocking decision on Wednesday to bench franchise quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who has decidedly not played his best ball this campaign.
The 27-year-old currently ranks 30th out of 33 in overall QBR on the season (37.7), above only Cam Ward, Geno Smith and J.J. McCarthy, and has thrown a whopping 15 interceptions, the most in the league so far. Meanwhile, Miami sits at 6–8 on the season, and was eliminated from the playoffs on Monday following an abysmal performance against a well-prepared Steelers squad.
