At this time last year everyone was writing him off to even make the roster after the Steelers drafted Mason Rudolph in the 3rd round. All Dobbs did was ball out in the preseason and win the backup job behind Big Ben. Josh Dobbs is simply playing behind a future Hall of Fame QB that just led the league in passing yards and set the franchise record for passing TDs. This is no different than when Aaron Rodgers didn't start his first 3 years in the NFL because he was playing behind future Hall of Famer Brett Favre. So please get your facts straight. I have no backed off one inch over my expectations for Josh Dobbs. I fully expect him to be a superstar QB in the NFL when he gets his shot." @VanS Annnnd, here is his shot!! "Can't wait."

They traded/released 2 other QBs in their franchise history that eventually became Hall of Famers elsewhere (Johnny Unitas & Len Dawson). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you just seriously compare Josh Dobbs to two Hall of Famers? And this is also the STUPIDEST logic I have ever seen. Pittsburgh has released a lot more quarterbacks in their history than just Unitas and Dawson. I never saw Landry Jones and Kordell Stewart amount to anything.

Elky Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) I can't stand people who try to hype up random/obviously bad players and then try to wow us with meaningless facts/stats that no one cares about. This is the same guy who thinks Josh Allen is going to be in MVP talks. Edited September 9, 2019 by Elky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying its a law of physics that every QB the Steelers trade or release becomes a Hall of Famer. Calm down. I'm just a well-known Dobbs fan who is rooting for him.

Last night , dobbs or riudolph could have been better than ben, but thats speculation considering moncrief dropped a record number of passes etc. What a terrible game, but good luck to dobbs. I never understood the smh towards him either. Colbert drafts dobbs in RD4 then trades him for a 5th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even think his mother thinks he's that good. Edited September 9, 2019 by Elky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not about what he's done. Its about what he might do. If he ends up having a better career than Mason Rudolph then the Steelers will regret the trade.

He's got starting caliber arm strength and elite athleticism. All he needed was an opportunity. He's got that now. Lets see what he does with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, sure displayed that by being unable to be Ben's backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
