Nobody talking about Minshew?

[BurnNChinn]

Had great game and could of got him for a whole lot cheaper! 

[Ivan The Awesome]

I was about to make a thread about it. Could have had him for a fuging 5th round pick. lol

 

 

Also, iirc, there were several huddlers that wanted him instead of Sam. Honestly it would have made more sense given that you could literally given up nothing for him. 

 

Could have had him AND Jaycee. OH well, ce la vie.

1. Even Darnold looked good against the Jets.

2. Minshew's problem has always been consistency. He'll look great a couple of games, then look terrible. You want to see it for more than one week. If anything, his performance today might cause Hurts's ankle to need a little more time to heal.

Um, how can you be consistent when you are surrounded by absolute poo? Minshew performed and lost several games but it was not because of him. He won shootouts and several games from behind. Unfortunately he was in a poo team. At least he was a proven QB with a poo roster. Also durable.

Bs he had weapons in Jacksonville and 2 season to show consistency.. Played them into to 2 top 5 draft picks 1 being his replacement..

STop lusting over mediocre QBS..

Minshew is just Fitzgerald. He'd make a great backup, but not a good long term starter. It is feast or famine with him.

[LinvilleGorge]

I said all along we would've been better off trading for Minshew than trading for Darnold and trading for Darnold still shouldn't have eliminated going after Minshew too. If we were going after an afterthought vet, my choice was 1. trade for Minshew 2. sign Trubisky. Trading legit assets for Darnold should've never been on the table.

Yeah, you would think after the last 2 seasons Panthers fans would learn.

Better than feasting on an all you can eat buffet of flaming dog poo which is what playing Darnold is.

[Khyber53]

Glad he did well, but he's not the guy you set off to rebuild a franchise with. That being said, we've already tried three others that should have been much surer things...

Probably should have kept Heinicke.

[ForJimmy]

Minshew would have been a good vet backup, but not the guy for all season. Trading a 5th for Minshew and drafted a QB would have worked. We would still have our 2nd and 6th this year plus not waste that money on Sam’s 5th year (still blows my mind). 

[Cpt slay a ho]

Was on the boat to go for him in offseason, showed enough when he was playing tinder potential and the stats backed it 

[IRONMAN]

I don't think anyone wanted him here to be the savior of the franchise. When you consider what we have invested in all of our QB's he is as good as any of them and would have cost far less. You use someone like that to tread water until you draft or trade for you guy. Unfortunately we've drowned.
