Week promises to be eventful for Steelers QB picture. Dobbs starting last preseason game says team still evaluating him. Dobbs and Landry Jones have garnered interest from some NFL teams, I'm told, but Jones a tough trade b/c of experience. So many scenarios can play out

I don't think Dobbs is that good.

I'm not too certain Jones is that good either but I'd give up something for him before I would Dobbs (wouldn't be much, though).

Dobbs has a FAR superior physical skill set, age, injury history, and salary to Bridgewater, who himself is not that good, and just commanded a 3rd for one year.  Bridgewater is a good guy but so is Dobbs, an engineering major to boot.

Dobbs may be a superior athlete, but he's not a good quarterback.

There are reasons why the Steelers used a high pick on a quarterback this year despite the fact they already had both of these guys.

Gilbert and Heinicke have been with a head spinning number of teams.  Why?  Because by your theory AND in reality...they suck!!!

The Vikings have only had one franchise QB in franchise history (four decades ago), were DESPERATE for Teddy to be the savior, then discarded him like used trash after his disastrous injury, and he just commanded a 3rd for one year on a huge salary.

No one has yet to put a more logical solution to this short and long term (by NFL standards) problem than a late pick for Dobbs.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
