He may have some pretty cool talents besides football. He has the iconic look with the shaggy hair and mustache already going. I think he would make an amazing exotic car sales man. He also looks like he could have a promising future in porn.

Hou had Fuller and a decent TE that year too, as I recall Actually I wish you hadn't helped me recall. It really rotted my socks that HOU won a playoff game with Brock Freakin' Osweiler and a 9-7 record at a point where the Bills hadn't even been in a playoff game in 17 years, including 2014 when our record was...9-7 7 minutes ago, K-9 said: Not really.

Sherlock Holmes Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Minshew II is a boss... he easily has a backup career waiting if Dumb Marrone benches him
blacklabel Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 I understand where Minshew is coming from. He may have thought he was just hurt and could shake it off. And yeah, he probably felt like if he had to miss time due to injury he'd lose his starting gig but if I were him I'd have some confidence in myself and say, "It's Mike gotd@ng Glennon, I can beat this guy for the #1 spot."

I mean look at Chase Daniel...the man has made almost $38 million to throw an average of about 20 passes a year over his 9 year career... Glennon has made almost $27 million in his 6 years in the league...backup QB is the easiest position to make a ton of money and have a long career to literally never play. In fact, it might be the only position in the NFL that you may get paid MORE based on potential than on actual ability...IE, you might get a bigger contract when teams THINK you are going to be able to come into a game and play well as a backup versus actually getting in a game as a backup and possibly not living up to their expectations. Being an unknown quantity as a backup QB can actually work in your favor as long as teams THINK you can play without having any proof one way or the other. Didn’t come in w EJ in 2013? Christ that would make this his 8th season? Lucky bastard
Nelius Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Mike Glennon? Nathan Peterman might truly be up next. There's not an, ahem, very well known unemployed QB that was tearing it up 5 years ago during the exact same time that Mike Glennon was already proving to be a bust still available? It's crazy to me that Mike the Neck Glennon is still somehow an NFL quarterback.
Charles Romes Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 It’s too bad they have too many wins to catch the Jets in the tank for Trevor race.

I guess I understand that the Jags are playing for nothing in which case Mike Glennon is probably the perfect QB, but I can think of numerous QB's that have come and gone since then that inspire more hope than Mike Glennon. Cardale Jones? Heck, maybe give me EJ? And I'll ask the flat out obvious - who would anybody rather have? Kaepernick or Mike Glennon? They played at the same time! Glennon was eating a bunch of high hanging flowers on the sideline while Kaep was winning playoff games.
Freddie's Dead Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 North Dallas Forty showed the dirty side of the training room. Amazing how little has changed in 40 years.
Nelius Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) To be fair though the Cowboys are about to start a guy at QB whose own neighbors may not even know that he plays football. Some of these 3rd string QB options are unreal...are their dads just friends with the GMs or something? Going through the league right now and I truly haven't even heard of some of these guys. Easton Stick? It's like I'm in the 17th season of Madden Franchise mode. How in the world is Fitz not getting millions of dollars thrown at him right now? Edited October 30, 2020 by Nelius

Minshew has had discomfort in his thumb since Jacksonville's Oct. 11 game at Houston, a source told ESPN. He did not tell the team about the pain until after the last game, which led to a postgame X-ray in Los Angeles. The Jaguars didn't know about Minshew's injury until this week, per sources. It is uncertain whether Minshew will be able to play when Jacksonville returns from its bye to host the Texans. My question: Was it a dick move for him to keep this to himself for so long? Or would most/all fringe starters do the same for fear of losing their job to injury? (Glennon is his backup, so I can't really see that happening) Maybe his fear isn't Mike Glennon. Maybe his fear is that Jacksonville ends up with the #1 pick and gets Trevor Lawrence. At the very least, the Jaguars will probably be in talks for one of the other top guys like Justin Fields, Trey Lance or Kyle Trask. The upcoming QB class is supposed to be very good, and this may be Minshew's best shot at keeping the starting job.

He doesn't have great arm strength, he isn't particularly accurate - but he's a gamer, takes what you give him, gets the job done.
