Gardner Minshew II

Minshew has been surprisingly effective as a passer this season. He's the QB17 in fantasy, which won't surprise many people, but he's also 13th in yards per attempt, third in passing yards per game, and fifth in CPOE. Mustache mania could be back. We'll find out this week as he gets a Carolina secondary that is struggling outside of Jaycee Horn. Carolina has allowed the tenth-highest yards per attempt, the second-highest passer rating, and the sixth-highest CPOE.

Gardner Minshew II completed 30-of-38 passing attempts for 276 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens.

Fantasy Impact

The Raiders were able to pick up an upset win over the Ravens on Sunday, and a lot of that can be attributed to the efforts of Minshew. He played well and limited mistakes against a tough Baltimore defense, and he was able to move the ball well enough to pick up the win. He is inconsistent and shouldn't be started in the majority of fantasy leagues moving forward.
