“For those wanting Carson Beck to start a win like that pushes that timeline a little further down the road. Definitely not happening next week. Jacoby wasn’t great but he moved the offense with long sustained drives and made the biggest completion of the game to Brooks to set up the winning field goal. It will be Brissett behind Center for at least another week but more likely even more than that.”
While some Arizona fans may be unhappy with this news, there isn’t any way to justify a change after a win. Yes, Brissett did throw a rough interception early in the game. The 33-year-old also didn’t engineer a touchdown during multiple trips deep into Rams’ territory.
At the end of the day, the team captain made enough big-time throws, including the completion to Jalen Brooks that set up the game-winning field goal.
The next test? A contest against a ferocious Denver Broncos defense in what might serve as a reality check.
Read more below on what Brissett can do to maximize his window as Arizona’s starting quarterback.
