Weeks after forcing public apology out of Ryan Clark, Tua Tagovailoa dominance earns Broncos proposed Uber drive to home

The Denver Broncos, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa at the helm, are having one of the best seasons in the 2023 NFL season, while other AFC teams are struggling terribly. After securing a 2-0 record in the last two games, the team delivered a stunning blow to Russell Wilson’s Broncos in week 3, clinching a whopping 70-20 victory.

The former NFL player and current ESPN analyst Ryan Clark, who once got embroiled in an ugly altercation with Tua, has an interesting offer for the dual-threat following his team’s record-breaking win in the last match.

Ryan Clark left fuming after Tua Tagovailoa-powered Dolphins win

Miami had the chance to score a 44-yard field goal to break the all-time record of 73 points with just a few seconds remaining. However, their head coach, Mike McDaniel, did a favor to the Broncos by letting the clock run out.

Nevertheless, their 70-point victory is already a significant achievement in the current NFL landscape, surpassing the previous record of 72 points set back in the 90s. Following the Broncos’ phenomenal win, Ryan couldn’t resist offering an Uber ride to the formidable squad while heaped praise on their outstanding caliber.

“Y’all know how hard it is to score 35 points in a NFL game? Much less double it? Unless you’re Miami I guess. That’s an old FBS Vs FCS score!! Small schools get paid big money to travel to Power 5 schools to get beat like this! 70? Nah you give up 70 you gotta Uber back to Denver.”

Tagovailoa completed 23 of 26 passes for 309 yards and four touchdowns. De’Von Achane contributed with 203 yards on 18 carries and scored four TDs, while Raheem Mostert added three TDs and 82 yards on 13 carries, along with a receiving TD. Meanwhile, the Broncos became the first team in the history of the league to amass a total of 350-plus passing yards and 350-plus rushing yards in a single match.

Dolphins QB’s online beef with the analyst

Clark stirred controversy by making a derogatory comment about Tua’s physique, suggesting that he was not committed to his performance and questioning his work ethic. The analyst also commented on the quarterback’s appearance, using the term ‘thick’ and making an inappropriate comparison to a dancer at a strip club.

The Miami vet also gave it back to Ryan by urging him to leave talking about him and also said it is “weird” to take a dig at current players, especially making such a below-the-belt comment.

“He probably knows more about me than I know about myself. Ryan’s been out of the league for some time. I don’t know. It’s a little weird when other people are talking about other people when they’re not that person. It was just a little weird.”

However, Clark later issued an apology after facing an outburst from fans on social media writing, “If I’ve offended you Tua, if I’ve hurt you, if I’ve disrespected you, if anybody that supports you and loves you feels some sort of way because of what I said, I truly apologize.”

He also mentioned somehow his ego was involved in the subtle jab and added his pride was not letting him understand what the Dolphins starter was going through. What’s your take on this incident? Tell us in the comments.
