Pass yds-2,717

Dobbs' numbers multiplied over a full season.
Your "mediocre" argument is idiotic at best.
...the stupidity on this forum never ceases to amaze me.

20 td 13 int : super mediocre
2700 yards: mediocre
1000 rushing yards: pretty swell
18 rushing TDs: very good
The issue is, his rushing is only average so he would get decent totals from a large # of attempts, and taking a large % of red zone opportunities.
He averages less than 7 yards per pass and 4.5 yards per rush which isn't bad at all for a running back, but it's actually pretty mediocre for a running quarterback.

And he won't be playing in garbage time throughout the season. We have film of him now.
You can adjust those numbers down a bit...

Dobbs (2014 predicted)
Passing - 241/384 (62.7%) 2,613 YDS 20 TD 13 INT
Rushing - 225 ATT 1017 YDS 17 TDs (4.5 YPA)
Of course, this is a stupid extrapolation, because Dobbs played the following defenses (total defense ranked):
#12 Alabama (267 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT)
#94 South Carolina (467 YDS, 5 TD, 1 INT)
#77 Kentucky (345 YDS, 4 TD)
#23 Missouri (208 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT)
#70 Vanderbilt (183 YDS, 2 TD, 2 INT)
#22 Iowa (205 YDS, 3 TD 1 INT)
It looks like Dobbs made hay (812 YDS 9 TD 1 INT; 406 YPG, 4.5 TD/G, 0.5 INT/G) against two terrible defenses in SCAR and UK and then was pretty mediocre-to-bad against the rest of the schedule (863 YDS 8 TD 5 INT; 215.8 YPG, 2 TD/G, 1.2 INT/G).
To put it in perspective, Justin Worley (who was not a threat with his legs at all and whose per-game yardage average included -105 rushing yards) had the following game averages in the first 7 games:
210.6 YPG
2.1 TD/G
1.1 INT/G
Dobbs is an elite QB when he is playing against 2014 Kentucky and 2014 SCAR, and a mediocre-to-bad QB posting nearly the same game yardage and scoring as Justin Worley against everyone else.

All the more reason why Jones was an effing moron for trying to redshirt him. Not only did he squander a golden opportunity to break the Florida streak, he spotted Alabama a 2 TD lead by starting the Special Olympics kid before finally taking the redshirt off Dobbs. Even though he knew he was going to play Dobbs, he waited until he was down 13 to put him in...and Tennessee played Alabama even the rest of the way.
I'm not necessarily down on Dobbs as a QB, but the more you prop up Dobbs, the more of an imbecile it makes Jones for not playing him.
