Gardner Minshew II – Quarterback 

Gardner Minshew had his first game where he struggled. Let’s see how he bounces back now. It was only a matter of time for him to struggle, every rookie Quarterback struggles at some point. What is important is to see how they bounce back the next game. Minshew faced a very good defense last week against the Saints.

This week against the Bengals it is a different story. He is one of the key players to watch this week, just to see if he is able to bounce back and continue playing like the QB of the future for this franchise.

The Bengals defense is not very good and is a big reason why they have yet to win a game this season. They do have some talent but overall things just have yet to come together. Minshew and this Jaguars offense is still a bit of a work in progress as we saw last week, but they are a bit ahead of schedule from where we thought that they would be. Look for Minshew to throw over 250 yards, two touchdowns, and have zero turnovers this week.
