Here's what bothers me about the whole wins/losses thing

If Minshew plays poorly in a win next week, I could see them saying "Well he's done very well but he still needs to be brought along a bit more slowly if we can help it..." and benching him for Foles, I could see that make sense. But what if he DOESN'T play poorly? What if he balls out again, and come week 11, he has 14 or 15 TDs to 2, maybe 3 interceptions? Even if they lose next week and he plays great, what would putting Foles in change?

What happened to Foles sucks. And if Minshew weren't playing as well as he was, i'd be excited to see the guy come back to start the team off. But Minshew's been anything but your typical rookie QB. It's not Foles or Gardner's fault or anybody's fault, but Minshew really has stepped it up to an excellent level. I just can't figure what Foles is going to do that Minshew hasn't already been doing. Getting the ball out faster, maybe? Saavy NFL veteranship? It's a [BLEEP] situation in that you don't want to see Gardner sat unless he plays absolutely atrocious, but you don't want to have a guy you paid TONS to to start not play either. But it's nice to have a genuine QB controversy around having TWO good QBs on the team for a change, eh?
