Murray or Tune to start in Cleveland: Gannon

[BirdGangThing]

It's just that Tune isn't likely to be better, and will probably be worse.

We'll see about that - have your second half Josh Dobbs stats ready lol - particularly when it matters aka the 4th quarter

 

[BirdGangThing]

If Gannon thinks Clayton is ready then this Dobbspologist has changed his Tune.

Well pun sir

 

[cardsfanmd]

What I don’t love is that unless Kyler is 100% all week and trots out Sunday, neither of them will be getting all the 1st team reps. This would especially be bad for Tune if he ends having to play.

I think Gannon has read the room. Better to trot Tune out there if Kyler not ready, have Tune fall on his face, and then be able to insert Dobbs back vs just start Dobbs. Kinda like shaking the keys to distract the baby.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Immediately looks to see if the Cleveland defense is available in my fantasy leagues.

 

[Totally_Red]

This is facing reality IMO. Dobbs is playing worse with each game. It is time to pull the plug.
Tune may not be better. Kyler may not be ready. But Dobbs has become unwatchable. He is like a baseball pitcher who can't throw strikes.

Dobbs is another QB who played for this franchise. Like 97% of them leaves no unanswered questions at the end of it. For that , we salute you Josh.

You think Gannon wants Clayton Tune to fail so he can play Josh Dobbs again... you think that's the plan huh? Even tho it's been announced Dobbs is the #3 QB now... and you're also suggesting we'll see Josh Dobbs again before we see Kyler Murray...

And this will all be to distract fans with low football IQs?

JG gave Dobbs every chance -- but the last three weeks he has gotten worse. Both INTs were disasters sunday.
I dont expect Tune to be more effective -- it will just be a different kind of bad QB play.

No. I think they have seen enough of Tune in practice and Dobbs on the field and feel Tune gives them a better chance at winning. it's not 'rocket science'.

 

[Dayman]

This seems pretty random. I mean, I 100% understand benching Dobbs, but saying you are sticking with him yesterday and reversing course less than 24 hours later seems random.

There is some speculation out there about Dobbs getting traded tomorrow, but that seems highly unlikely.

Ability to be flexible in your decision (when logical and factual) is a good trait.

I think it's simply don't demote a player in front of the media before you talk to the player in private. A little respect.

Well I would assume Tune is gonna get the majority of the snaps this week…

ESPN says it's Tune.

Cardinals bench Joshua Dobbs; Clayton Tune to start, per source​

TEMPE, Ariz. -- The Arizona Cardinals are planning to start rookie quarterback Clayton Tune on Sunday against the Browns in Cleveland, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

 

[Harry]

Tough assignment for either guy. Interesting today the media picked up the “Where’s Clark” thread. I’m still worried whether Gannon has built a dog house or an exit ramp!

 

[PDXChris]

I think the guy in the front intercepted Tune in the pre-season. Should be a fun week! He's going to brag all Sunday long!

I seriously doubt that is Essang Bassey since he is currently paying for the Chargers. He intercepted the one pick Tune threw in the preseason (59 attempts).

Teams were really starting to pick on Clark though. Wilson still has the hope that he can actually make a play because he has in the past.


Clark started to look like a guy that could stay with his man while his man caught 13/15 passes for 160 yards and two TDs.

 

[Russ Smith]

What I like is that Gannon said after watching the film he came to the conclusion Tune or Murray will start.

So he defended his QB after the game but then sat down and watched the tape, realized how poorly Dobbs actually played, and made a change.

I like that.

And Bassey is the absolute definition of a fringe player. My point made, thanks! I had no clue who intercepted him. Tune was just okay against fringe players and players not currently in the NFL.

Tune's gonna suck. This would be the week to bet heavy on Cleveland if Clayton is starting.

 

[BurqueCardFan]

No one is a "apoloJoshogists", whatever that nonsense means. Dobbs has zero supporters on this forum.

It's just that Tune isn't likely to be better, and will probably be worse. The Cardinals are going to be really bad without average Kyler Murray and that was going to happen regardless.

I actually don’t think Dobbs has been that bad (relative to some of the other trash backups we have run out thru the years). I don’t think Tune would have beat Dallas, so I’m happy for that.
However, I still don’t know why they wasted the draft capital to get him so close to the start of the season. Our record would have been been the same with Tune.
