Dobbs worked with the 1s today!

What makes you say Dobbs wouldn't have done better? You have no proof.

If he couldn't beat out Nate in practice, he wouldn't havedone better. Practice results are multiplied so much more in a real game. If Dobbs sucks in practice, he really sucks in a game.

Whatever you say buddy.

He wasn't as good as Worley, which ain't saying much for sure, but the gap wasn't very wide. Had a better completion %, 60 to 55, threw for more yds in a single game than Worley did (240 yds vs Mizzou), was certainly light years better running the ball. Both had 1 SEC win as a starter.
 
Just heard on the Radio that Josh Dobbs got extensive work with the 1st team today. Wonder what CBJ has up his sleeve....hmmmmmmm

So... you think this is going to fix the o-line issues? QB is not the problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:thud:

So how do you explain Peterman looking really good in practice and being historically bad, absolutely awful on Gameday?

IMO, it would be stupid to play Dobbs now. You wasted a year of his eligibility playing him late last year, and you're going to do the same now?

One of those SEC wins is Jones' signature win.
 
I'm willing to look at whatever they can throw against the wall to see what sticks. Worley needs a mental and physical break. He's lost confidence. Early on he was a gunslinger with accuracy. Now he's hurting and unsure. Bad combination.

Injured in his only start where he got main reps with first team. Next two games he didn't practice with most reps with first team. Plus the X factor of being the Swamp, Hedges, and Vaught vs top 15 defenses. Please tell me any other QB who has had those conditions.

Yeah I'm sure the fact he's had about 10 times the in game opportunity has nothing to do with it.

Dobbs never looked as awful during his playing time. The only reason Peterman plays before Dobbs is because coaches want to redshirt Dobbs. They tried it last year, but Peterman got injured too, so they were forced to play Dobbs. They're trying the same thing this year. So, yes, if anyone else starts this week, it will be Peterman, but I'm here to argue on behalf of not writing Dobbs off. He has more upside than any of our current QBs.
 
Well, I understand that half of those sacks Worley has taken where because he 1) never paid attention to corner blitz 2) steps back3-4 yds more post snap out of the shotgun....where no OLineman can protect him. Is that hard your you to understand?
I do understand that if what you have stated is an actual problem and CBJ and staff are not coaching him to correct it then there is a problem with the coaching. Wouldn't you agree?

But I can bet you that he is doing it right 98% of the time.

As I've mentioned before Dobbs played both SEC division champs last year and BAMA and still put up better numbers than Peterman. I don't know how much proof you need.

You can't argue not writing off Dobbs and then condemn Peterman to being a grocer for the rest of his life.
