Why is Marrone going with N.Foles as his QB instead of G.Minshew??
Gardner Minshews 2019 stats :

Year 1 : Rookie
Yards : 2,285
Percentage : 61.2
Touchdowns : 13
Interceptions : 4
Rating : 92.8 (NFL.COM)

Fumbles (11) YIKES!

1 game of 100+ Yards
6 games of 200+ yards
2 games of 300+ yards



-------

I don't get it. I don't watch the Jaguars often, but how can you bench a rookie who is performing this well, and is only 2 games back from your division leader?

In my opinion these types of changes are what get a head coach fired.

Because a starter shouldn't lose his job due to injury.

On one side they invested $50 million (guaranteed) in a proven SB quarterback. On the other, a 6th round pick and $2.7 million.

This isn't really up for debate. At all.

Minchew Magic ran out. Just flat gone. Poof. Disappeared.

Still, Foles will get injured again soon so Minchew will get another bite of the pineapple.

Minshew is a much better QB than Tebow - he’s a well above average backup. He just isn’t a long term starter, though.

The only answer is because Foles has a huge contract and was signed to be the starter. You can bring Foles back, let him steady the ship, and Mishew can learn behind him. It's going to be great for the rookie to have come in, have won four games, but also have seen adversity and realize it's more complicated than just slinging it.

This is the right decision.

Because they paid Foles alot of money to be their QB and he got knocked out in the first game so they don't know what they have yet. Also they were keeping toe to toe with us until Foles got knocked out so if Foles gives them that ability to play with the best then they're going to use it. It makes sense.

I mean really? This one seems pretty obvious. Gardner Minshew, if he's lucky, will be Alex Smith someday. You're not burying Pat Mahomes or Russell Wilson here. He's gonna be a solid but unspectacular game manager. When people were saying "wait until the league gets tape on Mahomes" it's because we live in a world where Gardner Minshews exist.

And when that's his apex and you can't release Foles next season either, you absolutely need to either 1) pump Foles value for a trade (which would actually be viable) or 2) Get him as many snaps in this system as possible so you can regroup around him next season to truly decide what you want to do with him from there.

Sticking with Minshew would be completely asinine. This isn't a guy with All-Pro potential - he's a walking meme who had a few good days and has also shown some truly awful tendencies that will be picked apart the more he is exposed. You don't bury a guy you're paying $45 million over 24 months for that.

Oh ok yeah I’m reeruned and so is my op then lmao. I had no idea Foles was being given that amount of $$ for 2 years and I also didn’t realize he was not playing because he was hurt.

My fault for not doing the research I suppose but that’s what I have this place for!

Agreed. But the sad part he is better than anything we've had since Brunell and that's sad.

Foles is actually worth something to them in the short term and could possibly turn it around for them so the season isn't a total waste. He's a pro, had some decent coaching and they paid him. He needs to earn his salary. If the "Shoe" had 4-5 more touchdowns at this point in the season it's an entirely different story.
