I've posted on about a half dozen sports boards, so I consider myself a journeyman poster. And that is probably why I find it easy to root for Josh Dobbs.
QB 1 (?) Josh Dobbs
- Thread starter Ronin
- Start date

I would like the Cards to give Dobbs a nice contract to keep him as a back up like they have done over the years for others qbs like on McCoy and Drew Stanton.

The most amazing stat is 72% completion percentage only being 4th best...haha What an amazing QB league.

I liked the end of the mic'd up video where Dobbs asked the referee if he could keep the football and then said, "thank you" when the ref told him he could keep it.
Humble and class. I really like that. Not enough of it these days

Help your boy Josh Dobbs out!

Hold onto the ball, Murray!
Yeah, Pittsburgh sports talk radio was trashing the Cards for this today. And rightly so!

It's funny because he was posting this last week and nobody noticed until they beat Dallas...lol

Yeah, I didn't even read about it here.
This is why Dobbs is so likable. He isn't afraid to poke fun at himself. Between the dart throwing post and this jersey post it's hard not to root for the kid.

Great underdog story too. Prior to the NYG game, about four people on planet earth believed in Josh Dobbs and that included himself and his mom.

At first I wasn't sure about JD, but since I was always sure about Monti, I felt pretty good about him.

I was super-skeptical Garth, based on JD's past numbers. Very, very glad that he's exceeded all expectations.
Origin story for your name please sir!

Crimson, I'm not sure what you're asking. Please explain?I was super-skeptical Garth, based on JD's past numbers. Very, very glad that he's exceeded all expectations.

P.S. While it seems that JD, after his playing days, has an interest in Aeronautics, but if he changes his mind, he seems to have a lot of qualities that you look for in a coach.
Like I did with the "Josh Dobbs sucks" takes I'm going to have to say let's not get carried away.
He had a good game, and he's playing well. But QB's like Dobbs are inconsistent and limited when required to operate outside the script.
There are probably going to be some bad games. We might even see one on Sunday.

Agree
He will probably never be great. However, he’s efficient, he’s seeing the field, reading his progressions and you have to say he’s fearless.
He will undoubtedly be our best backup qb for this team.
For sure, but I would caveat this with "at the moment". Guys like Dobbs can often catch fire for short spells until they get figured out. Or they can be inconsistent.
No doubt he will be a good backup though.

I'll add that I don't know if he ever got a real shot to be a starting QB. Maybe as he's gotten older, he's gotten better. I know I have.
The 49ers will make us look very ordinary. We will be burying Dobbs by Monday morning clamoring for the return of Kyler. It’s the nature of being a fan.
I see us losing 31-17. But if the 49 er’s score with 2minutes left it will mean it was a close game.

We should be losing to SF and that's not just my opinion, but also what the pro's in Las Vegas think. It won't affect my opinion about the Cardinals. I'll wait to see how we react to a loss.

I would consider any loss short of a blow out to be a huge step forward for this organization and team.
You’re not wrong. But he beat the Cowboys. We hate the Cowboys. Whether we’re 13-4 or 2 and 15, the Cowboys must be beaten.
