Can't let 2 games with a combined record of 1-14 blind the fact that the Saints exposed the gameplan on how to fluster Minshew and that he also struggled against the 0-8 Bengals. Now... I LOVE ME some Minshew... and he is the future. Right now though, I got to give the edge to Foles when he is healthy and let the stache learn and grow.

It really could work out that way. 

Another poster and I were chatting about it and I said that Minshew will extend some plays that Foles can't and he's converting on quite a few of those. His counter was that Foles may find his open guy quicker at times and not need to buy time.  Watching some of the all22 stuff, I know that's very likely. 

Tricky trade-off, but I don't have any trepidation about inserting Foles in week 11 like many do. Feeling pretty confident in either option at the moment.

Team chemistry is a real thing... Minshew and this team have been building that for 2 months now in live fire, while Foles rehabbed.. If they bench Minshew for Foles, there's going to be no grace period/excuses for him, or for this coaching staff/FO. He better be great from the very first snap he comes back and we better go on a multiple games win streak/make the playoffs or else...

Simply because, what other reason would there be for benching Minshew, unless you/they truly think Foles is the only one who gives us the best chance to win... So, if that's the case, he better win, or heads need to roll for making such a stupid decision.
