Tvd Ken Dorsey Comparisons

[Hurricane4lyfe]

Does his game looks similar to Dorsey?? Thoughts just heard him on Packard and Durham show

 

[Crystal Ball]

nah

 

[NYCane89]

No. Much stronger arm and more mobile.

Dorsey was a great "game manager."

 

[RoboCane]

In terms of reads and progressions, yes. TVD's arm is stronger though and he has better accuracy.

Thanks I thought so too just a breath of fresh air right now for our program

Love me some KD, but I think TVD is more athletic with a stronger arm. It’s early yet, but he’s showing a lot of promise.

Mannn former Caneinorlando going spazz in here lmaoooo

The similarity for me is in the apparent maturity. We have seen far too often that immature QBs-unless the talent is just through the roof-usually cannot overcome immaturity. The last guy that we had that exhibited this maturity was Kaaya who was a very good college QB. TVD is more talented athletically than both Kaaya and Dorsey so he may be able to eclipse individually what each accomplished. We'll see . . . still a long way to go.

His rapid progression reminds me of Dorsey. I recall Ken’s performance against Va Tech in 1999 ...by the end of the season he was solidifying his claim to be Miami’s quarterback of the future. That more than anything reminds me of TVD...Van Dyke has progressed VERY rapidly.

He’s gotta better tools but obviously ken was a very successful and clutch player. Also had great talent tho. I think the release may be similar. Kens release may have been quicker. Ken was also a great athlete in his own right even if it didn’t show up at the combine lol

 

[Go Canes!!]

TVD has the potential to be a far better player. Dorsey couldn’t physically do what Tyler does, not even close.

 

[WestEndZone]

No.

 

[Brains]

No

 

[SWFLHurricane]

No

 

[caneworld]

Nope... different player other than potential for success.

But if we get the right HC, TVD's legacy could be bigger than Dorsey's.

 

[jackedaround]

no. he can run and throw better.

however, they both appear to be leaders and winners.

 

[itsacanething]

This. their games are nothing like each other. dorsey had a pretty weak arm.

Kenny was rarely if ever under pressure in 2000 and 2001. He almost always had a clean pocket. Different game today though with RPO and offensive lineman being able to cheat downfield. Long gone are 5- and 7-step drops. Last Saturday is the first time I've seen where both teams were called for illegal man downfield in the same game. Almost unheard of these days.

Really interested to see how TVD is going to perform these next 4 games.

Much different kid than Kenny.

 

[Maskoff407]

Ken Dorsey?!?!? Nahhh. Not even close. Stephen Morris is the ONLY QB in the last 20+ years to have an arm as elite as TVD's, and I'd still give it to TVD. Although, I do believe Stephen Morris would dominate the game had he been playing right now.

Ken Dorsey lost us that Ohio State game as much as the refs ever did.
