The Miami Dolphins are struggling with major issues surrounding quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
Miami’s offense relies on rhythm and timing, but hesitation now defines their attack instead of the quick decisions that once made them dangerous.
The problems run deeper than last year’s struggles, with Tagovailoa losing access to the intermediate in-breaking routes that fueled his success.
Even when receivers break open, he’s missing them, contributing to his 10 interceptions through seven games.
When a timing-based passer loses confidence, the ripple effect touches every part of the offense.
Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner recently voiced serious concerns about Tagovailoa’s current form and decision-making.
“Right now, everything is a mess there. It’s Tua playing without any confidence, and when you have to go back and play this position with no confidence, and you’re asked to make play after play, and you’re asked to anticipate and throw into tight windows, and you’ve lost your confidence? It is a tough place to be, and we’re seeing that right now. The hesitation from Tua is killing him and killing this offense,” Warner said.

Warner highlighted a recent play involving wide receiver Jalen Waddle as proof of Miami’s larger problem.
Tagovailoa once made that throw in rhythm without hesitation, but this time he double-pumped, threw late, and it became an interception.
That moment captured everything that’s wrong with Miami’s offense, where second-guessing has replaced the decisiveness that made Tagovailoa effective.
In a Week 7 loss at the Cleveland Browns, Tagovailoa threw three interceptions for a second straight game and fumbled three times, though Miami recovered each one.
His decline is a troubling trend for a team that’s seemingly falling apart on and off the field.
