Dobbs against the Saints is probably going to go a long way towards answering whether Dobbs is the starter going forward or if Hall’s gonna get his job back. Maybe the decision lasts another week or two depending on how far Dobbs needs to go with the playbook for KOC to be completely comfortable with him down the stretch.

I don’t think it’ll strictly be a “if we win those games it’s Dobbs job to lose, if we lose those games we’ll go back to Hall” thing. KOC talks a lot about emphasizing the process, so he’s not just gonna be looking at outcomes. But obviously winning games makes it easier to keep Dobbs as starter, and losing them makes it eaiser to go back to Hall.
