Re: What now? A golf analogy
Some good points being brought up...and it made me curious who Dobbs was playing behind at each of his respective teams: 2018-2020 - stuck behind Big Ben 2022 - behind Ryan Tannehill 2023 - emergency QB for Ari and MN This year, in roughly 400 attempts, he is throwing at about a 65% completion rate ...

Re: What now? A golf analogy
Dobbs is 28, and although he has been with a variety of teams and been in the league for a while, he still has yet to surpass 500 career passing attempts. In fact, until this year, the most attempts he has had in one year is 68. Even though he is a veteran, he still has a lot to prove, and playing t...

Re: Who Starts?
I'd like to see one more week of Dobbs after the bye week and (hopefully) with JJ. If he still screws the pooch, I'm ready to see what Hall has to offer...

Re: Cleveland to the Jags
Anyone pleasantly surprised yet? No? Have to make the playoffs first before you give Dobbs any credit? The super bowl?
Not sure he is Elway but he is doing pretty damn good.

Re: Vikings at Falcons
I'm guessing the Vikings have some some tape on Heinicke. I'm guessing Hall will struggle a bit and KOC will be calling pretty conservatively. Both defenses are basically at or near full strength. This might be a 2 hour game with all of the running and short passing. Maybe each team takes a shot or ...

Re: Cleveland to the Jags
Dobbs might surprise you... Did they say what we got for Cleveland yet? Like Keenum surprised us and then Elway? As in...he might be a competent QB capable of getting us to the playoffs. We're only 1 game back...I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet and I'm glad the Vikings aren't. Dobbs has been...

Re: Vikings acquire Dobbs
Dobbs is a decent veteran journeyman option at QB, especially under these circumstances. I think the Vikings had to make this move because Mullens is on IR. If he weren't they'd be OK putting Mullens in. I personally hope that Hall gets his shot. Neither Dobbs nor Mullens are the future at QB. Hall...

Re: Cleveland to the Jags
Fire Kwesi right now except he got Dobbs for us for nothing. :whistle: Let's see. Trade away PFF's 7th rated guard for a 6th round pick. Get a career back up QB for a 6th round pick. I'd say the scales tipped towards the negative with that one. He essentially traded Cleveland for Dobbs and a 7th at...

Re: Vikings acquire Dobbs
Dobbs is who Hall can be in a year or two (which is why it would be nice to extend Dobbs), but Dobbs needs to be starting ASAP!

Re: Vikings acquire Dobbs
Much better (and less expensive) trade than i thought they would get in such a short time. Dobbs should be happy, he has never been on an offense like ours. Dobbs has been decent in AZ, surprisingly so. This was the guy I had told my brothers I was hoping they would target, but I didn't expect AZ t...

Re: Should we trade for a Quarterback
I'll leave it up to your judgements to decide which options are bad and which are worth looking into. Just wanted to see who MIGHT be available. Here we go: Tyler Huntley: 25 years old. On the cheap in the last year of his contract-could also be an audition. Andy Dalton: If we could "pry"...

Re: Vikings acquire Dobbs
We basically got a competent QB for free. Much better value than the Sam Bradford trade!

Re: Vikings acquire Dobbs
Love this move as long as we did not give up too much!
Not a flashy QB, but high IQ and mobile. If he does well, we can extend him a couple of years for cheap until our new QB is ready...whoever that is.

Re: Should we trade for a Quarterback
The word is they just traded for Josh Dobbs of Arizona, who I know nothing about. If we didn't give up too much, I love this trade! A lot of potential. This will be his audition for an extension. He might be a legit starter, or he might be a starter until a newly drafted rookie is ready to go. This...
