Game are won on the OL or DL.  Its the core of success.  Until this team has stable OL/DLs its going to struggle.

I like Minshew, he's not the long term answer.  He's sure fun to watch!

Raw rookie Burrow is performing pretty well behind, arguably, the worst OL in the league.

I was thinking the same thing while watching the game this past Sunday... until I realized the defense that he was up against.

I think at this point Minshew will be fine.  Is he ever going to be a Mahomes?  Probably not.  I think that he has the potential to be a Phillip Rivers type QB.  Pretty good, just not enough to put him over the top.  It's not necessarily all on him, the supporting cast around him on both sides of the ball have a lot to do with it.
