Who Should I Start? Tyrod Taylor or Joshua Dobbs

Saturday, November 8, 10:07 AM

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor would be a low-end streaming option in Week 10 if he gets the starting nod for the team's home bout with the Cleveland Browns. Even after a bye week, head coach Aaron Glenn has still not seen fit to name a starting quarterback. The 36-year-old looked like he might get a shot to run away with the starting gig back in Week 8, although he was eventually ruled out with a knee injury. Taylor looks to be over his ailment, carrying no designation into Sunday's contest. The sentiment around the team, however, seems to be that Justin Fields will again lead the Jets' offense. Whichever of the two winds up calling signals for New York will be met with a challenging outing against a Browns unit that's been unkind to opposing offenses. Through eight games, Cleveland is third in total defense (276.9) and has forced the fifth-most interceptions (eight) while yielding a dreary 12.13 rushing yards per game to QBs.

New England Patriots quarterback Joshua Dobbs completed 11 of his 16 pass attempts for 106 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during Saturday's preseason win over the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran backup looked solid, albeit against the Vikings' second-team defense. With only Drake Maye and Ben Wooldridge alongside him in the Patriots' quarterback room, Dobbs is in line to earn the backup job ahead of Week 1. The 30-year-old has seen increased opportunities over the last few seasons, including the 2023 campaign in which he threw for 13 touchdowns with the Vikings and Arizona Cardinals. He spent 2024 backing up Brock Purdy in San Francisco but did attempt 47 passes through two games (one start). If Maye were to suffer an injury, Dobbs possesses the experience, mobility, and arm needed to keep the Patriots competitive down the stretch.
