Minshew would've been the way to go. That way you can also hold an open competition, Trey gets his reps, and if Minshew stinks it up, at least Trey comes in with a better grasp on the offense.
With that said, I won't pretend that I was on board with trading Jimmy in the offseason and going with a vet + Trey. I definitely argued with NY about that as well. Overall I didn't think this was a SB team (had us 10-7 in the PYWLwhatever thread) but I thought we could be very competitive and you never know what happens in the playoffs.
And with all the crap I've given Jimmy over the past year and a half, I still believed he can be good in this offense and was kinda hoping 2 years removed from his ACL he would return to that 2017 form. With all these weapons on offense, I figured there's no way he can suck...Ya injuries have played a part again, but he's been playing very poorly outside of the Lions game.
Now obviously I was wrong, and we definitely should've traded Jimmy and gone with a vet like Minshew. I doubt he would be doing any worse than Jimmy has...And at least you get Trey more ready, which should be the focus 100% going forward because I don't see us making the playoffs anymore.
I really wasn't for or against Jimmy being here...I understood all of it, my main point was you can not pay him what you're paying him. The team was not good enough to pay a avg often injured QB top 5 money in 2021. I think we all can agree with that now.
Everyone thought best case scenario and trading him for a million picks after the season... No one was really being logical about it and realizing there was never a real market for him and he was more than likely gonna be cut after this season. Fans value their own players more than the rest of the league does.
Whatever now...they made their bed with Jimmy. He's gonna be the starter until we're completely out of the playoffs, then what Kyle is gonna toss Lance out there with a bunch of guys that know they're out of it? great.
It's like someone declared Jimmy as stud status.
Ya, you lol!
up until we drafted Lance and then then you did a 180 on Jimmy
Should've traded him after the SB
I was high on Jimmy in '17, like the rest of the goddamn sheep. I have since dumped him - since the Super Bowl.
dude...took like 10 sec to find lol
