Why isn't Dobbs starting today for S.F. ?

I thought he was secured as 49ers backup

They don't want a QB controversy. They're about to give Purdy a $300+ million contract.

He was not. He was awarded 3rd string after preseason even though he clearly beat out Allen. Allen apparently has pictures on Shanahan.

They wouldn't have one with Dobbs

How did he clearly beat him out?

I declared it. Ha! No, actually much of the media stated he did and Dobbs himself said he thought he had earned the #2 job.

Allen playing might be move for trade bait.

If that were even remotely true, they wouldn't have signed Dobbs in the first place. But it's not because last year Dobbs proved he's at best a stop gap.
