"Rookie mistakes" are usually dumb interceptions, lack of anticipation, no pocket awareness, no knowing the scheme etc etc 

We haven't seen much of that yet at all. 

We've seen QBs like Darnold look awful for the first half of the rookie year and then a light comes on for the 2nd half. So will Minshew get even better as he gets more used to everything, or will teams "figure him out" so to speak with much more tape to go off of

I’ve thought about that but I’m not sure you can figure out a QB like Minshew because his approach is so simple. Ok that sounds stupid, but hear me out. He doesn’t seem to have a real favorite receiver, he just seems to throw to whoever is open and he throws accurate. He hit what, 9 different receivers against the Broncos. You can’t say just look for him to throw to Chark most of the game. You can’t make him throw inaccurate because the guy throws beamers under extreme pressure. Only way to beat a guy like that is to lock down every target on the field, which is damn near impossible to do all game. 

This is why Brady has been so tough to beat for so many years.

I agree. It not like the RG3/Cam early days where they had to figure out how to stop their running attack and whatnot. 

Minshew just makes plays from the pocket and has that pretty much unteachable ability to create something out of nothing. There's not a ton to "figure out," he's just good.
