Dolphins Tyreek Hill says hell take Tua

There's no disputing that Patrick Mahomes has more arm strength than Tua Tagovailoa. But new Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill is saying his new quarterback might be more accurate than his previous QB.On Hill's new podcast, "It Needed to be Said," the speedy receiver was asked by co-host Julius Collins whether Mahomes or Tagovailoa had the stronger arm, which led Hill to compare the two in both arm strength and accuracy."Obviously, like, I'm going to go with 15 (Mahomes) as the strongest arm, but as far as accuracy-wise, I'm going with Tua all day," Hill said.MORE: Hill said that while many will speculate that this is just a nece sary Tobias Harris Jersey defense of his new quarterback, he believes Tagovailoa is "that dude." He said his new quarterback can throw the deep ball, and he also praised Tagovailoa's accuracy and ability to go through his reads.He also said that he Landry Shamet Jersey believes Tagovailoa can find him downfield when the offense is in a scramble drill."I want it to hit me right in the bread basket, just like I did in the Buffalo Bills game and it take it 70," Hill said, referring to his touchdown pa s from Mahomes in last season's AFC divisional playoffs. "And the rest is history."MORE: When it comes to arm strength, there is no dispute which quarterback has the stronger arm. Mahomes completed 36 deep throws (20-plus yards downfield); Tagovailoa 29 pa ses 20-plus yards downfield, , although some of that can be attributed to the Dolphins' offensive coaches. Mahomes had an average depth of target of 31.4 yards on deep throws, which ranked fifth, while Tagovailoa ranked 24th in ADOT at 29.1 yards.But Hill said that he's more than a deep-ball receiver."I done expanded my game," he said. "Now I'm doing a lot more than Los Angeles Clippers Jersey just the deep ball now. I'm doing intermediate routes. I'm doing short routes. So now I actually need a guy who can just get me the ball now, on a dagger route, on a corner route, on a shallow cro s route."MORE:How do Mahomes and Tagovailoa compare on short and intermediate routes? Alook at their adjusted completion percentages, grades and rankings from PFF in 2021:PlayerInt.

While he completed 67.6 percent of his pa ses to Mahomes' 66.3 percent, Mahomes had an adjusted completion percentage of 79.2, which was second in the NFL behind the Bengals' Joe Burrow; Tagovailoa was 18th at 75.3 percent, . Tagovailoa had the fourth-most turnover-worthy throws at 4.8 percent, while Mahomes had the eighth-fewest at 2.6 percent.Hill has been one of the league's most dangerous deep receivers, ranking second in ADOT on deep pa ses at 34.7 yards in 2021 and earning a 97.2 grade on deep balls, . His 36.2 yards per reception ranked 12th-best in the NFL and he ranked 27th by receiving 15.4 percent of his targets on deep pa ses.He was targeted on intermediate routes 26.9 percent of the time and earned a PFF grade of 98.7 (seventh-best); targeted on short routes 44 percent of the time with a Chris Paul Jersey grade of 93.4 (12th); and caught pa ses behind the line of scrimmage 13.7 percent of the time with a grade of 84.1 (sixth).MORE: And Hill is confident he can make just about anybody look good. In 2019, when Mahomes was out with a knee injury, he said he had a big game against the Vikings (six catches, 140 yards and a touchdown) with Matt Moore at QB."I love Matt Moore, but Tua T. is 10 Matt Moores," Hill said.
