Dobbs to Jacksonville

[BigOrangeMojo]

Good news for Dobbs as he's been traded to the Jaguars. Should have decent chance to earn starting role there while Foles is injured.

I have mixed feelings.

Better being a starter for potentially 6-8 weeks in Jacksonville than inactive in Pittsburgh...

 

[Rockytoptalker]

I believe that’s a better situation for him. Hope it works out.

Excellent! Joshua escapes the "burgh" & should have a great opportunity in Jacksonville.

Minshew looked freaking good* for the Jags yesterday. It would be a really bad stroke of career luck for Dobbs to get stuck behind this guy. He's probably going to get to be the starter for at least two more weeks until Dobbs can get his feet wet, and obviously he'll stay the starter if he keeps doing well.

*22/25, 275 yards, 2 TD's, 1 INT

I like Dobbs and all but if he's playing when the Titans play them, I hope he sucks.

The truth is nobody is likely playing much in Pitt unless Ben gets hurt and Randolph apparently already beat Josh for next man up on that list. With the Jags (and Foles out "indefinitely") there's a real opportunity for some meaningful snaps. Of course what becomes of that...

JD will lead the Dolphins to 3 super bowl wins and earn 3 MVP awards. Soon!

How will he do that from Jacksonville?

Good for him, glad he is getting an opportunity where they don't have a clear starter.

I think Minshew proved he can play. At least for the immediate future

The real test will be what he can do when defenses have some film on him. Some guys look awesome and then they've used up their bag of tricks and get exposed. I didn't see anything from him that made me doubt his future potential, tho.

Dude, this guy is the best player ever. He can do things no other can. So winning super bowls for a team he's not on is nothing

Matched or set a few first start records. Crazy he could have played at TN

Yeah but at least it's not Ben sitting in front of him. Not saying the starting role is his, but certainly an easier one than what he was looking at in Pitts

Philly should have traded for him. Only a matter of weeks before Wentz goes down

Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) out for the year

Bad timing; but then again he wouldn't be starting now. Rudolph beat him out.
