The Minnesota Vikings offense was riding high against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday afternoon when they came away with a 27-19 win.
Josh Dobbs got his first start and showed a lot of positive elements. One of the best things that Dobbs showed was how well he managed the pocket.
Throughout the game, Dobbs stayed in the pocket and looked to attack down the field through the air before taking off on the ground. That is exactly what you want to see and having Dobbs be there after being in the building for 12 days is astounding.
The Pro Football Focus grades are out from Sunday’s game and the Vikings scored extremely well.
