What They Aren’t Telling You About Josh Dobbs…

[@SheGotSports]

Sorry about the Vol pronunciation! I'm just saying it how I hear it on TV but my NY accent might be messing it up lol. But thank you for all the support on this video it truly does mean a lot, as a ton of work went into it! Appreciate you all!!!!

[@commonsenseentertainment5487]

No worries. We've heard worse over the years. Thanks for the shout out to the Passtronaut. We need great stories like this; especially these days.

[@adamrutherford8298]

Why don't you think he's a franchise quarterback?

[@MrTerrytheplatypus]

Yeah you gave zero reasons. Josh Dobbs not a franchise QB bc why exactly?

[@KilledByThatTrain]

Awesome video! Thank you! 😁 Here in Knoxville, TN, hometown of the Vols, Joshua is revered. He's such a hard working and humble kid, and he really made a difference when he was here, both on and off the field. I'm so happy for his success, it couldn't come to a better person!

[@KmartToaster-th2hm]

thanks for the apology - I pulled out half my hair before I saw the apology..... try pronouncing it as "Vawl" instead of "Voul" - your pronunciation is how you say the rodent - remember that Vol is short for volunteer (due to the high rate of Tennessee citizens volunteering to serve in the US military)

[@mv223]

4.0 as an athlete, and in a field like Aeronautical Engineering, and earning the Torch Bearer award. Quite impressive. Not to mention how fast he is learning with the Vikings. Dude is extremely sharp. Now I see why they call him the Passtronaut, because of his degree and being a part of SpaceX. Awesome.

[@grangesaves33]

Aeronautical engineering is planes. His specialty is Astronautical engineering

[@SheGotSports]

I think that def played a huge part in him picking up the playbook so quick! Great point!

[@DAVISNAVY-777]

Yes, he also worked on the Artemis Rocket during his internship for NASA. He watched a SpaceX launch with Musk & Trump. Yep..... he's incredible.

[@greenwave819]

we call him Space Dobbs, the first QB to land on the moon and prolly Mars too

[@andrewpeterson3302]

Dude throws 4 picks in a game, fumbles every game so far. Can't hit wide open players down the field. Keep him in space and far away from the football field.

[@APizzle90]

Josh Dobbs is Him!!! As a fan of the Tennessee VOLS, I’m so damn happy he’s finally getting his chance!

I feel in my soul that Dobbs is gonna do great things for the vikings. The PASStronaut.

[@greenwave819]

Space Dobbs!

[@andrewpeterson3302]

Fumbled in every game. 4 picks in one game. Sacks 12 yards behind the line of scrimmage, safety, throwing balls behind receivers, and several intentional grounding penalties. He will do great things.... For every team he plays against. This dude sucks

[@chrisginoc]

Dobbs is playing like his career depends on it...which it does and he knows it...this is his chance to change his career trajectory and no longer be a journeyman.

[@Untieabl]

As a Vols fan we have all know how good this guy is. He was handcuffed in Tennessee by terrible coaching, glad to see after 6 years of bouncing around he is given an actual shot at being successful.

[@rickyharden1123]

After all that build up, you say you personally don’t think he’s a franchise qb… without saying he playing like one and potentially can be… just feels like a low blow. I believe Dobbs is special and severely underrated and will continue to prove the doubters wrong. SKOL

[@thecockerel86]

I would think history is on her side. On balance, it is unlikely that he becomes a starting qb at this stage of his career, but not impossible. He has his opportunity to make his case with the Vikings now though, and like most who see this video, I'm rooting for him.

[@SuperLooneyrooney]

And the thing is he doesn't have to be a super star and play at Mahomes like level week in, week out for the Vikes to have a legit chance to make and thrive in the playoffs. You have to remember that the head coach and play caller is also an NFL QB who also never got his shot and he has an above avg OL and skill players that are the envy. You could make the same case for J. Hurst, Tua, Purdy, , Goff, Dak and a few others.

[@JWM-s3y]

Dobbs is plain ole better than at least 10 starting QBs. Maybe more.

[@moemonte88]

It's crazy to get hired to a new team on Tuesday and start a few days later. And then to win. that's wild.

[@generalhyde007]

Well now Josh Dobbs is on the greatest story teller team in the nfl. All we need is maybe 5 victories in the regular season and 4 victories in the post.

[@subtlefps]

We may not think he’s a franchise QB, but we don’t really know yet because like your video explained, he’s really never gotten a fair shake. He’s got height, 4.4 speed, physical skills and the best brain in the league with some of the best skill players around him? The Vikings might have struck gold. I think he will easily get a nice contract and a steady backup low starter role at worst next year and it’s only been two games. He actually has a shot to do something insanely special with MN this year. If he’s a lot better than advertised, with their offense and vastly better defense, they might not just make the playoffs, they may do serious dmg….

[@diyfitness50]

I wonder how much his interests outside of football hampered his production on the field . To take on an engineering degree the way he has ( 4.0 grade) and internship at NASA can't allow for dedication to football. Maybe now he's fully dedicated to the NFL and it's showing? I disagree and think he can be a franchise quarterback. Yeah he's been a backup, but at the same time he's still in the league which alot of NFL hopeful QBs can't say the same.

[@sombatkhnor5720]

​@@diyfitness50100% agree!

[@SuperLooneyrooney]

@@diyfitness50 I doubt that his off field interests had any impact on his on-field performance. Look at who some of these players hang out with in the off season

[@choosecarefully408]

I don't think people have realized how pivotal all of this is. Anyone think he wouldn't have won Every Game with that Browns defense or at least made them close? Now the Browns' #1 QB is out for the season. He couldn't win with Arizona. But now that just shows Kyler Murray doubters that they should stfu. Dobbs may only be high mid as a QB. But in a season where we only have a couple of really high QBs not injured & a bunch of under-performing ones, this stands out. Would you rather have him or Derek Carr? To me he's also something Extremely Important to the Vikings: the anti-Kirk Cousins. Cousins puts up great counting stats & loses games he shouldn't. (The Ultimate Minnesota Viking in many, many ways). Dobbs wins games people don't think he could. He's doing more with less. Can't wait to see what happens when Jefferson returns & he has the opportunity to do more with more.

[@roryolson61]

This is the perfect fit for Dobbs with KOC as his coach!

[@AJHyoton]

He's won two games as a starter and one as a Viking. I am happy for the two wins and all, but am not about to hold my breath

Yeah, but he'd be riding the bench. I'm happy he got a starting job. I think reality will catch up and he'll throw some picks. But, with so many starting QBs down and the poor play across the league he has to be a top 20 QB. Kyler's top 10 already though.

[@DAVISNAVY-777]

You did a great job with this video. Really liked the clips & the music. A lot of them I hadn't seen. I'm wired to be a fact checker & I've been following Dobbs for quite a few years. You made a couple subtle errors that stood out to me but I'm sure no one else noticed. Other than that any encouraging positive videos about Dobbs is appreciated. Most people wouldn't believe the amount of negativity endured while he was at AZ. It was weird. Came to the conclusion that people have "Oklahoma Syndrome". Yes, I made that up. Fans have it with Mayfield too. They're the fans that perceive their guy like Murray & Mayfield to be untouchable. Probably will happen with Hurts too. Players are made into an idol. Maybe fans thought Dobbs was a a threat to their guy Murray but the dislike was unwarranted. I'd never seen anything like it anywhere. It continued even after the Dallas win. Near the day of his trade, he was being blamed for everything & I mean everything. This came from fans & professional AZ media. I was so thankful he left AZ. I was so thankful he left the Browns. His time of sitting behind a multi-millionaire QB were finally over. Yep, referring to Watson & Murray. Actually, Big Ben too. He was finally being given his own unique opportunity. So, thankful Coach O'Connell saw in Dobbs what many of us already knew. Again good job. Appreciate the overall positive video. New sub! Oh, & I have a sincere question. Why can't he become a franchise QB? Not saying you're implying that but I've heard it a lot & would like to know why people think that way. Ty!

[@emmanuelporte4201]

The most unlikely thing of all of this, is that the Vikings have been running like a strict pocket passing offense when each of the formations needed a running quarterback. Historically that's where the success lies. So it was just some odd twist of fate that he just clicked to a certain degree that allowed the Vikings to function as well as they have. In truth I think the biggest disadvantage they have right now is time. If they can just keep the success rolling a bit until the bye week, they should have a little bit more time to practice and give Dobbss the opportunity to understand the playbook even more. The thing that I found the most hilarious was that Atlanta was QB hungry and had Dobbs right there to be the hometown boy and they missed their opportunity and watched as he spanked them after 5 days on a new team in front of his parents.
