Meanwhile, Ryan Fitzpatrick after hearing the news:
I don't know how to feel about this.

Yeah me neither. Luckily Miami's running game is bad so we should be able to stack the deck on defense against the pass. Hopefully the Rams welcome the rookie to the NFL appropriately and don't let his story dictate the post game conversation.
Good for him, hope we make it a losing first start though.
Fitz and the Fish have won their last 2 games (both blowouts) so if he is a little unhinged it's understandable IMO
This is bizarre. Why would you change while you are on a roll????????
So first of all All eyes on the Bears. The Rams have some splaining to do. F looking ahead.
Maybe the Fins were pissed at Fitz for messin' with next year's draft plan? Give Tua some exp, and then get him some toys on offense next draft?

some names from the past there who he thanks. Definitely a professional in how he deals with constantly being a stop gap player.

Don’t worry, I’m sure the Rams players and coaches won’t come to a message board to distract themselves with future game discussions. I think it’ll be ok.
Young QBs tend to hold the ball longer. If Tua does that against Donald and the Rams, he'll be ending the game with a very dirty uniform.
First career starts typically don't go well. First career starts against a top 5 defense statistically? Yikes

I question the timing of this decision. Fitz is the unquestionable leader of this team and has been playing at a high level lately. This seemingly puts Tua in a tougher situation.
One would think that Flores would ride the Fitz wave at least for now.
Oh well the Fins be finning I guess.....

The GM for the Dolphins should call Jerry Jones. They could probably trade them Fitz and get Dallas’s next two #1 picks.

Only thing I can think is that this was their plan from the beginning. They told Fitz that he was the starter until the bye week barring a medical setback for Tua. Would make sense really.
going to start a guy that had hip surgery less than a year ago when your current starter is playing great. Makes sense.
