While it appeared everyone was in agreement that Hurts was still the QB of the future ahead of today’s game, it seems some Eagles legends might think otherwise. Gardner Minshew had a phenomenal game against the Jets, completing 20 of his 25 passes and looking incredibly accurate. 

Both Brian Westbrook and LeSean McCoy noticed the changes on offense and voiced their opinions during the game. 

Minshew displayed incredible accuracy, hitting Dallas Goedert for several touchdowns in heavy coverage alongside a nice throw to Quez Watkins in stride. Alongside this, he was great at recognizing coverage and knowing when to kill a play when nothing was available.

It’s hard to think negatively of Minshew after today, and he proved he could be a starting QB in the NFL. Granted, it was against the Jets, but there’s not much more he could have done better today.

The Eagles have a bye week this upcoming week, meaning there is bound to be a lot of QB controversy talk everywhere, and rightfully so. But Jalen Hurts should still be the guy going forward for the franchise.
