I don't mean that like I hope it falls out, but lets be honest he was a 6th round pick that many didn't even think would make the team. Now he's playing incredible...what happened? Has this just been a fluke? God I hope not maybe I am worried that if I get 100% on the train I will jinx him lol. I will say that should Minshew just fall flat I felt like Foles was playing well before he got hurt. As far as Fournette I don't know I feel like he's average. I understand the stats and I understand how he's playing now but he's no MJD or Fred Taylor. Maybe it's not fair for me to compare him to MJD but I just am eh on him. The defense? I was actually surprised to read that our defense was middle of the pack, I thought our defense was playing pretty good. As far as our team as a whole, I know that KC game wasn't considered "close" but to me it was close had they called that horse collar call when Fournette fumbled who knows what would've happened. The saints are a pretty good team, I think they are like 7-1, we barely lost to the Texans and the Panthers are also a decent team. All of those games we were in them. The teams we beat we beat like we were supposed to. I really think 12-4 is a possibility but unlikely simply because that would mean we'd have to win 8 more in a row. I don't know now that I have commented we are probably going to go 4-12..sorry lol

With Minshew, I think it's a demonstration of how much of a crap shoot the draft is. Everyone drafted has some level of potential, that's why they get drafted in the first place. But talent evaluators sometimes get lost in the measureables and forget the actual results of what a player did in college or downplay the results because of the conference a guy plays in. Anyway, I'm glad we've got two pretty good QBs on the roster.
