This is all personal preference when it comes to developing a QB. My personal preference is to play the rookies right away (1st rounders that is) and let them take their lumps and learn on the job. And if I was Marrone, once I saw Minshew play well, it would have been the end for Foles. Foles is an average QB with high highs and low lows. 

Minshew has flaws right now. That's true but Foles also turns the ball over, takes bad sacks and misses open guys. In 5 games last year, he threw 4 interceptions, took 9 sacks (behind an elite Oline) and had 3 fumbles.

The funny thing here is that I'm not even completely sold on Minshew. I think that's the main thing here. I want him to play as much as possible to determine if he really is the guy because these next two drafts have some very interesting prospects and with the 1st rounders we have, we could make a play on one if we need to.

We don't need Minshew to play as much as possible to know what we have. He had 9 games with 8 starts. We know what we have with him. Potential.
IF we're in position to draft a franchise changing QB, we will. 

Minshew played great against bad teams and not so great against better teams. There isn't much else we need to draw from that. It isn't about what he's learning on Sunday it's about what he'll do in the off season to get better.
I'm not trying to put Foles up on a high horse at all... just trying to bring the mania back down to a simmer. It was fun, but he didn't play as well as some people think. 
And my entire point is, putting him on the bench isn't going to hinder him from developing. He isn't a first rounder. We don't have to start him.

People might wanna get used to the idea of Foles (if healthy) being our starting QB... for 2020. He wasn't signed as a one year stop gap.
And Minshew really didn't play so out of his mind that you HAVE to move on from Foles. Especially if he plays well the next few weeks.

Our upcoming draft (2020) should be used to build up the team around the QB position. OL, DB, TE, LB, NT
QB won't be readdressed until 2021. And banging the table about starting Minshew is why people may think you're all in your feelings about it. It just ain't happening my dude. It's Foles for now. Minshew maybe later.
