Miami Dolphins fans are eagerly anticipating news on the next contract for Tua Tagovailoa and when it will be finalized and announced. There’s considerable debate among the fanbase regarding whether he deserves to be paid as the top quarterback in the NFL or if a different approach is warranted.

Many fans argue that paying Tagovailoa an amount similar to or exceeding what Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence earn would be justified and a responsible investment. On the other hand, some believe he should be compensated at a level below Jared Goff. Currently, it appears the Dolphins are leaning towards a contract more aligned with Goff’s rather than Burrow’s.

The Patriots are banking on two main factors: first, the belief that a former player with limited coaching experience can rejuvenate a franchise that parted ways with Bill Belichick; and second, the hope that a rookie quarterback can lead the team.

Drake Maye isn’t expected to immediately transform the Patriots into winners, and there are doubts about his ability to develop as swiftly as the team anticipates. His rookie season is predicted to be challenging.
