Another Dooley swing and miss...

I hope something clicks with Dobbs and Peterman between now and August, if not, we're in huge trouble.

Nice article, thanks.

If you didn't appreciate Justin Worley before today, you might want to get on that.

Damn straight.

He made some great throws in the Georgia game.

I think Peterman will improve with some reps and a better Oline. That said IDK how high the ceiling is with him. It was a bad situation to come into.

No we aren't!! We will be fine! (1) Dormady gets on campus while we have bowl practices. (2) Next season's running game & defense & tight ends will keep us in games in the earlier part of the season. (3) Dormady will play every game but will be the starter after the Florida game.
(4) each week, he will improve a little more and by season's end, he will be fine.


Look at Bray. Look at Ainge. Look at Manning. Look at Casey Clausen.

All the same formula and we went to a bowl game in Manning's freshman season, Bray's freshman season, Ainge's freshman season, we played in the S.E.C. Championship and a bowl game during Clausen's freshman season.

We will be fine. Surely Dobbs can hand the ball off the Hurd, Scott & Kamara. Surely Dobbs can get the ball to Helms & Wolfe. Surely Dobbs can run a few times on the option read and gain some yards.

The defense will lose (1) senior, that being A.J. and the defense will return with a year of experience and we will get help coming in from the freshmen D.E.'s & D.T.'s... and Cecil Cherry.

Once the teams see Cherry at L.B., they will likely forfeit the game on the spot..................

I think next years we will have enough weapons that our QB can be more of a game manager than have to be a "Johnny Football/Tebow type", "everything hinges on QB play". We will have ultimately the same receiving core we have now + some additions.

Dobbs was thrusted into ridiculous circumstances as a true freshman last year with injured WRs and playing Alabama first game. Forgot which game it was, but he pretty much accounted for most of our offense and was the #1 rusher in that game.

That being said, another year of development in the program and knowing the system if Dobbs can put his intellect to use on the field and be a decent game manager I think we will be ok next year. I can see why Jones did not play him on Saturday so potentially he could be redshirted. Dobbs also had a higher completion % than Worley last year. Grant it, he was no Worley, but overall he was not a disaster for a true freshman.

Is Dobbs the future? Probably not. If he gets us past another year of development of some incoming QBs then I think he will have served a good purpose.

I'm not being a Dobbs cult follower like some of the ridiculous Riley posts I have seen on here. Just being fairly objective. Peterman's problem is 100% of his play we have seen the last 2 years he has been a disaster, particularly on turnovers.

Peterman had the same OL that Worley had. Peterman also gets plenty of reps in practice. I know he is still young, but if he is SEC quality QB, he would be ready to go in, in relief when called on.
