Agreed. We are not a playoff team even, maybe even with AR. We may make the playoffs but we’re so deficient in many aspects that if we play a truly elite team we’ll be handled.

I trust Steichen to make that call more than any of us.

Agreed. And Steichen said it best. He thought his defense had a higher chance to get one stop as opposed to two. Hindsight is 20/20

Cuz it’s a message board?

Defense was atrocious.

He’s a backup. He’s a backup for a reason. My expectations have always been tempered. He was not the only reason we lost today. I would argue the defense was every bit or more culpable by giving up 34 points. He's not terrible but he’s not elite. He very well could be the best backup. Well look at it after the season is over.

You’ve been saying all thread how terrible Minshew is and now you’re backpedaling. What fallacies and I arguing? You stated Minshew is not a good backup. Manning says he’s one of the best. You state Manning is wrong and provide stats. I’ve provided that stats alone don’t tell the story. Manning has far greater insight on what it takes to be a QB in the NFL than any of us here and I will always defer to that level of intellect than someone on a message board.

You know more than manning. Sure thing hahahahaha

Best backup means the best in the class. Elite means playing at the top level of any backup for all time

Literally no one is telling you not to have that opinion though. People are disagreeing with you when you say he stinks and that people call him elite. Hane your opinion but others, including Peyton Manning disagree.

Stats aren’t the whole story though. We’ve lost games cuz of Minshew and we’ve won games cuz of him.

I’ll take manning over someone in the internet.

So you know more than Peyton manning now?

But no one called him elite. You’re reaching now.

The colts defense made browning life incredibly easy. Let’s not pretend this is who will always be as a QB.

Where did they say he was elite though?

Do you know how rare it is to have a good backup?

Keyword: Backup Both sides need to temper expectations.

Make the claim, back it up.

Who will not be a backup next year if he keeps playing like this.

They want a Peyton manning type for their backup.

Agreed. We won’t be able to win enough to take the division. Wildcard is our best play for playoffs.

Their offense is just as taxed as our defense but yet they don’t seem to be struggling.

No, it can only be Minshew. It cannot be anything else. Backup QBs must play like manning or their trash. Yall are crazy

Did it twice last week.
