The Miami Dolphins franchise quarterback has thrown a league-high 10 picks. While he’s not the offense’s only issue, he needs to be better.

Jackson blasted the Dolphins’ coach and quarterback in an interview with Betway, only days after Miami’s embarrassing Week 7 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Not only are the Dolphins 1-6 and facing a second straight losing season, but their playoff chances are next to none entering Sunday’s showdown with the Atlanta Falcons.

Ulbrich, who knows Tagovailoa well after spending the last four years coaching the New York Jets in the AFC East, praised the Dolphins signal-caller during his Wednesday press conference.

Tua Tagovailoa explained that his height affected his ability to see receivers like Jaylen Waddle during plays, contributing to Waddle's four targets in Miami's loss.

Back-to-back three-interception games for Tagovailoa have caused the Dolphins to drop to 1-6 on the year. They currently sit No. 2 in the 2026 NFL draft behind only the winless New York Jets.

Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich spent four years with the New York Jets facing Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins twice a year.

Quinn Ewers and Zach Wilson have seen mop-up action. Ewers was 5 of 8 for 53 yards vs. the Browns and Wilson was 5 of 8 for 32 yards vs. the Colts.

Tua Tagovailoa leads the NFL in both interceptions and fumbles, but the Dolphins' coach says he still has full belief in the quarterback.
