I think his "struggles" were overrated by people putting standards in play not used with any other young QB and done because of draft position lack of pedigree. Outside of the end game mess in London, GM never looked lost like rookies do.

I also think he was handcuffed with the end season preoccupation with volume feeding Fournette that caused lousy first halves. Once that got corrected, Minshew went back to his earlier form.

Seeing the videos of him in the locker room and how the players respond to him was telling for me. I suspect that being snubbed for OROY will fire him up even more for next year. I'm all in on his future. I suspect the FO is too. I think that Star Wars pregame video was revealing.
