If you roll all of them into 1, you would have a decent QB. Separated, that's a nothing burger group.

On a personal level, I like Hurts. If he played for any team outside of our division, I'd like for him to succeed.

I think something is going on with Hurts. He was pulled before the game last week, didn't play this week, and now they trade for another starting quality(not elite but not bottom tier) qb? Something ain't right.

Definitely, Because you simply don’t bring this extra stress to his starting job if it wasn’t serious. This is kinda ideal for Minshew to be honest, it’s bad news either way, healthy or not, for Hurts.

Lol. What an ass he is. Blaming your struggles on scouting reports that he most certainly received but used to wipe stripper goo off his new sofa.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason

Thought Dallas would be the ones getting Minshew. Dak goes down they are toast. Not that the Eagles are all set at qb.
I think it was smart for Jacksonville to trade him and not have Trevor be worried about getting yanked. Same deal with Hurts.
Personally I think Hurts is awful and Minshew will be starting in no time but if you want Hurts to be the guy going forward putting a starting caliber quarterback over his shoulder is counter productive though.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason

Siriani probably wants a high octane passing attack with their shiny new receivers but has come to the same conclusion as everyone else, Hurts isn't suited to that kind of offence. They paid virtually nothing for Minshew, especially when you consider how much we gave up for Kyle Allen, so they have multiple options and, given the lack of good backups in tge league, if a starting quarterback goes down injured before the trade deadline they can flip one of them for a high pick. As much as I hate the eagles you have to admire the way Howie continues to turn FA QBs into high draft picks

Giants’ LB Ryan Anderson has been suspended for the first six games of the regular season for violating the NFL Policy and Program on Performance Enhancing Substances.


Wow, he really didn't pan out.

He needs to ask for a refund - because I certainly didn't see any enhanced performance from him.

That was my initial thought, but I actually don't think that is the case. I think they just found an opportunity to upgrade the 3rd string QB. Minshew has been available for a while now, and Mullens has showed nothing this preseason that would make them feel comfortable about the 3rd QB position.

Maybe, but the 3rd qb spot is filled by JAGs on every team and Flacco had a very good to excellent preseason. Minshaw was competing for the starter spot in Jax and had shown competence in it. Although maybe Philly trades Flacco and some picks for Watson, then Minshaw makes a lot of sense.

I think if you can add a quality 3rd QB, especially with COVID still looming, it's the right thing to do. After all, you want to upgrade every position if you have the opportunity, and the 3rd QB is no less important.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason

There is simply no way in hell I’m starting Cam over Mac Jones

Mac Jones has easily outplayed Cam in the preseason

I think so too. In fact, if Davis doesn't play up to "stud status" the hindsight cries for jumping up and grabbing Jones will be pretty high I think.
