Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell, right, had time to introduce himself to Joshua Dobbs, left, but not much more than that, at practice last Wednesday.
The man studied rocket science in college and interned at NASA. This serves as important context when analyzing Joshua Dobbs' debut as Vikings quarterback. He's literally the smartest guy in the room.
Even so, five former quarterbacks could only marvel Monday at what Dobbs did in engineering (pun intended) a 31-28 comeback win over Atlanta five days after joining the team.
Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton gushed that the circumstances made Dobbs' performance "impossible" given the complex nature of the quarterback position.
