QB Jacoby Brissett vs. QB Gardner Minshew II

While both teams will rely on their running game and defense’s to win on Sunday, it doesn’t mean the two starting quarterbacks won’t have a say in the end. Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew II are two, young quarterbacks that have seen everything this season, but they’re still standing and both of their teams believe in them.

As Minshew II is a creative and risk-taking gunslinger at his position, the Colts QB1 is the complete opposite. Despite the criticism that comes his way (and rightfully so to an extent), Brissett is a turnover-free quarterback, who possesses real arm talent and can make all of the throws when needed.

On Sunday, we’re going to see which quarterback between JB7 and GMII can do just enough to lead their team to victory. They might not be asked to do much, but you just never know. Especially in the case of Minshew II, as this will be his first time starting against the Colts’ defense and vice verse.
