Cris Collinsworth has once again figured out a way to annoy fans watching Sunday Night Football.
On Sunday night, NBC featured the Miami Dolphins taking on the New England Patriots.
With Dan Marino in attendance, Collinsworth and the NBC crew decided it was a good idea to compare Tua Tagovailoa’s throwing motion with Marino’s, calling them “similar.”

Considering Marino is a Hall of Fame QB with one of the greatest arms in NFL history, fans blasted Collinsworth and NBC over the comparison.

Flipping the picture of Dan Marino to compare him to Tua is top tier ridiculous content

Tua side-by-side with Dan Marino is among the wildest things I’ve seen.
