Unfortunately, I missed the games tonight. Judging by the box scores, it seems like no one really stood out.

Hooker completed 7 of 10 passes for 38 yards and added 27 yards on 3 carries. Kyle Allen had better stats with 7 of 10 for 120 yards but threw two interceptions and two touchdowns.

Looking at the numbers, Dobbs didn’t impress either, completing 5 of 12 passes for 45 yards.

In the Browns game, Dylan Sampson ran the ball twice for 6 yards.

Sorry but just the opposite, Kyle Allen came in and threw TWO TDs and looked really good. Unfortunately, there are articles out saying Hooker might be done in Detroit.

My bad. I looked at the box score wrong, apparently. I must have looked at it cross-eyed or something. lol. Corrected.

If you didn't see the Detroit game don't bother. Hooker time there has probably come to an end. Even worse he didn't even get to finish his half, pulled him with about 5mins to go in the 2nd qrt, two sacks and two fumbles won't cut it. Worse is Allen came in and threw a TD and looked good for what he did

Dobbs didn't do too much better

We get to see Milton tomorrow, hopefully he plays well

Think Milton is supposed to get major playing time tomorrow. Also saw where he threw a 75 yard TD flat-footed to a Cowboys receiver, and the receiver caught it.

Yeah probably don't want to risk Dak getting hurt before the season starts.
I plan to watch the game

Unfortunately, I think someone saved a ton of $ by Hooker getting hurt. Had he finished, he'd at least have been in NY, maybe winner maybe runner up, smoked Clemson (if Milton did what he did, imagine Hooker), got an extremely high draft pick.
Maybe I'm undervaluing the injury, but I think Hooker was an incredibly college player who never had a chance in the pros.
Obviously I hate the injury for him because it hurt his wallet, Heisman chance and who knows how he'd have turned out. But it seems he just isn't cut out for the NFL. Would be interesting if Milton had a better career than he or Dobbs.
I'd love for Hooker to at least be like Dobbs, a good backup in a pinch. He will always be one of the GOAT Tenn players. Such a pretty deep ball and one of the best leaders they've had.

The best thing for Hooker is to sign with another team.

Honestly, and I don’t even mean this in an insulting way-I think he needs to consider the CFL or XFL. There’s no shame in playing in either league, and he may be more likely to succeed in them.

It’s hard to see him getting another NFL shot after last night. But then again, if Tim Boyle is still jumping around NFL rosters…….

True but what little bit we saw last year and preseason, his age would you want to bank on that when you can get an older QB that at least have game time experience. He doesn’t have the arm that Joe has. Like the other poster said. He may want to look at the CFL/USFL or start his coaching days.

Guess we’ll be posting later tonight about Joe’s day.

Because as I said. Why would a team sign Hooker after what little we seen this season and last? If I’m signing an older guy he’s going to have some experience already. The Lions brought in a retired gym teacher last season to be a backup.
He may be out of options to make 10x more in the NFL. He also has the ??? of if he’s just a gimmick system QB
