AZ_Eaglesfan Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 19 minutes ago, NYRaider said: The sad part is that Jalen Hurts will probably be up and down the first 6 weeks, Sirianni will feel the pressure to bring in Minshew Magic week 7 against us, and he will dart our defense for 7 TD's like Foles did then become the starter, lol. This absolutely could happen but reality is Minshew is a third string QB right now and likely will not be active most games. Hurts could be terrible and Minshew could be starting games… who knows. But this is just a giant moving of the goal post when your original post implied us trading for Minshew meant Hurts wouldn’t be our starter.

I said he wasn't guaranteed to be the starter in the preseason GDT so it was a little odd that Joe Flacco was brought in as the backup. I retract my statement now and would say this probably means Hurts is the starter, I'd imagine Minshew surpasses Flacco on the depth chart pretty early because he can do some of the same things Jalen can in terms of running out of the shot gun, RPO, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Minshew could last a long time as a reliable back-up, someone who can come in and win you games in a pinch, especially if you are a contender-level team.

Kiwibrown Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 When you get a deal this good you have to wonder if it is stolen goods. You have to wonder has Minshew been human trafficked or something 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 7 hours ago, ///mcompact said: Eagles found their QB1 Just because technically someone has to fill that role on the 53 man roster, doesn't mean the Eagles actually have a true QB1. Minshew sure as hell doesn't change that fact , that's for sure. This is nothing more then swapping out Mullens for Minshew. Both suck but I'd rather have the latter as my 3rd TBH.

SkippyX Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 8 minutes ago, Duluther said: Why? He ran like a top level dual threat QB and he has a legit NFL arm. He dominated at 2 different colleges. He's looked fantastic in camp and scrimmages this summer. I guess you could ignore all that and stick with the cold take guys that hate him because they thought he should have been drafted in round 3 or 4? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was commissioned by Bud Light or something. It’s an ode to the super bowl for sure but everyone here doesn’t revere it was some special commemoration of those guys. It’s more cheeky than anything else. At least that’s what we told Wentz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
