QB 1 (?) Josh Dobbs

[CardNots]

eastcoastDave, not saying you're wrong, but Kyler's talent aside, I think that our offense still has MORE shotgun plays than under center. I say that without having any stats to back up my claim. Do you know?

I saw numbers previously posted, you are correct. I want to say it was a 70/30 mix which surprised me. My guess they’re setting the mix for Kyler’s return.

We are running 65% shotgun so far this season. I did a breakdown through week 4, after the Cowboys game. Under Kliff it was 87% shotgun.

See, I read your stuff. Only off by 5% which is within the margin of error

Is there any team that runs majority of plays with QB under center? I don't think so.

Not since the 1960s.

Too far back…

It will be nice to launch someone's career instead of watch it fizzle out for a change. When was the last time we brought in a player and made them better?

When the medical personnel ask me my height I just say 6ft last century and if you determine something different I don’t need to know as it provides no value to me

Right?
It still says 6'2 on my driver's license... 5'10 1/2 be damned

Right? More like since the 90s.

5'10 1/2, so you're like a giant. Wow.

I caught Michael Wilson on BRR, gushing over how hard Dobbs works. Talked about him staying after practice to work with Wilson on routes.

Really like hearing this

Presuming we don't have the #1 pick next year, which seems like a fair assumption, I hope that Dobbs is resigned next year. He's a solid back up for Kyler and legit starter when he is out. No reason to use our #1 next year on another QB if we can make this work, lots of needs elsewhere to use draft picks on.

At this pace, Dobbs might get a shot as a starter.

Dobbs is Trent Dilfer 2.0. He is a serviceable qb that needs a very good defense.
If Purdy was on this team he would not be “ great”. He would struggle.

I was thinking earlier today that Dobbs is somewhere between Dilfer and Matt Hasselbeck.

Dilfer was way better as a passer

Not nearly as good. The disrespect in this statement is huge.

Hasselback was a 3x Pro Bowler.

 

[Chopper0080]

Hasselback was a 3x Pro Bowler.

Imagine essentially saying that Dobbs and Matt Ryan are the same quality of QB. (I argue that Hasselbeck and Ryan are comparable)

In 13 years Dilfer had 58 wins, over 20k yards, and 113 TDs to go along with a Pro Bowl and a Super Bowl title. In 5 years Dobbs has 1 win, 1400 yards passing and 8 TDs.

Matt Ryan was an MVP. To me, he’s one step up from Hasselback. Hasselback is comparable to Eli Manning for me.

Either way, putting Dobbs in the conversation with any of these dudes is unhinged.

Don’t forget to mention the outstanding defense he had. He never had to carry the team on his back.

 

[slanidrac16]

P.S. I’m not comparing Dobbs to any other QB. I’m saying he would need a very , very good defense so as not to put the team on his back.
As of now he is being asked to put up 30 or more pts a game to win. That’s not happening and he is not capable of doing that.

 

[kerouac9]

Football in the late 90s was just different:

2500 yard Pro Bowl season. Good gawd.

I don't know about this statement to be honest. Dilfer wasn't a good passer in an era where they threw a lot less. Dobbs would be fine in that era, but he's not a good enough passer today.
