Really, that's what you gathered from the OP?

I took it as he was trying to say.......if our O-line pass protection wasn't as bad as it has been, his passing numbers, especially downfield, would have been even better. At least I hope that's what he meant. Downfield passing plays obviously take more time time to develop. Many times, I thought, Josh had to hurry his throw, or ended up scrambling for his life.....which often times ended in a positive play. I love watching Josh Dobbs, gonna miss him.

Thanks Freak.

Dobbs is on my all time favorite QBs to play.

Im not sure why he never really got the love or the respect he probably deserved. He did have a few bad games and got thrown to the wolves a few times.

Also he is the MODEL of a student athlete. Great young man with a very bright future.

I was looking at Dobbs' stats this morning. A few numbers...

-Highest completion percentage in the SEC for quarterbacks with at least 300 attempts. (63%) Not bad for a guy labeled as "inaccurate."

-Highest QB rating (150.6)

-Led the conference in passing touchdowns (27)

-I was surprised to see he was sacked 25 times.

-Think about this: Dobbs was Tennessee's leading rusher in three out of the Vols' last four games (Nebraska, Missouri, Kentucky) and also against Virginia Tech earlier this year.

-He was 17th in the SEC in rushing (831 yards) and tied for 6th in rushing TDs (12)

-I don't have the combined yardage stats (rushing and passing) but I'm sure he led the league.



I think one of the most amazing things about Dobbs is how many of us thought he'd make it through the last two years in this system without getting injured? He took some big hits at times.

Yep, Dobbs will surely be missed, but many people can't see it. It will become painfully obvious next season how important Dobbs was to this team and program.

Dobbs' durability is what really sets him apart. Dobbs is a smart gamble for an NFL exec. He may even go before the 5th round.

Well, since everyone else is looking at Dobbs' stats.....I will, too...

Against RANKED TEAMS---either when we played them or in the FINAL rankings:

VT 10/19 91 yds 53% 3 TD 1 int

FLA 16/32 319 yds 50% 4 TD 2 int

UGa 16/26 230 yds 61.5% 3 TD 1 int

aTm 28/47 400 yds 60% 1 TD 2 int

Bam 16/27 92 yds 59% 0 TD 1 int

Totals: 86/151 1132 yds 57% 11 TD 7 int


KY 11/17 223 yds 65% 3 TD 1 int

Miz 15/22 223 yds 68% 3 TD 0 int

Van 31/34 340 yds 91% 2 TD 0 int

Totals: 57/73 786 yds 78% 8 TD 1 int...


Draw your own conclusions.....

Dobbs is behind Casey Clausen and Manning in combined passing and rushing yards.....and behind Clausen, Ainge, and Manning in career pass completions.....

And NEITHER Clausen nor Ainge were able to make it in the NFL.......

As a die-hard VOL fan...I think Dobbs is up there with the greatest VOLS of all time....:salute:

cfbstats.com has split stats (and situational stats). They have Dobbs playing 4 ranked teams (theirs are based only on "ranked at the time the game was played"). His passing efficiency is 25th in the country, at 129.31, but ahead of him are 6 guys who only played one ranked team, and 5 who only played 2. That puts him at 14th for anyone who played against at least 3 ranked teams. Ahead of JT Barrett (123.99), Jalen Hurts (119.16), Lamar Jackson (119.09) and Jake Browning (115.97). (And, just to remind everybody...we're just talking passing.)

Thanks for the awesome statistical breakdown.

Since becoming a full time starter Dobbs has really only had a couple of truly bad games. SCAR this year being his worst. On the flip side some of his most impressive games ended in losses (2015 FL, 2016 Vandy)..... shame the defense couldn't bail him out during those flip flop performances.

Oh well... I'm so glad we had him. He is one to remember.

That win against Florida this past season was pretty nice with complete dominance by Dobbs. 5 Touchdowns, 3 through the air with over three hundred yards and 2 on the ground with over a hundred. It doesn't get more complete than that.

You know he played sore and banged up and never complained. If we could have somehow kept his redshirt he would be a Heisman leading candidate . Especially with the O line improvements we should see next year.

Wow, 25 sacks! That shows how bad the O line really was at pass protection at times. Trey Smith, come on down!
