Foles is the right decision at this point, and nothing about Marrone suggests a guy that would make a totally different call just because he's worried about getting fired. Moreover, this is not just about winning now, but also about looking at our future because the Jaguars must know precisely who they have with their $88 million investment. They know precisely what they have with Minshew. 
Which is what exactly? What do they know they have in Minshew?

I knew Marrone would go back to Foles because he has consistently played every single scenario safe or scared.


We have more than half a season of evaluation on Minshew to pretty much know precisely how he plays, and for that matter so does the rest of the league now. They know he can scramble and make good decisions even if he tends to avoid check-downs and TEs. They know he can make most of the throws although his deeper passes clearly lack the arm strength and accuracy that Foles provides.

Meanwhile, we have virtually nothing to go on to know what we have in our $88 million investment. This has nothing to do with playing safe or scared. This has to do with making the right call.

Also, there shouldn't be this panic that Foles might struggle taking right over having been out so long. He's come in cold twice before and brought his team all the way to the Super Bowl, winning one of those.
