His all-time starting record? 22-50-0. His starting record while with Arizona? 3-16-0... The main issue with Brissett at the helm is the offense's inability to get into the end zone.

Brissett's high volume and solid completion rate mask red zone futility; source calls for benching.

Brissett's 2026 season has been marked by inefficiency in the red zone despite adequate volume and completion percentage; he is averaging 37.3 attempts per game (well above the 28-attempt league average) but generating only 10 touchdown passes through seven games. His all-time starting record stands at 22-50-0, with a 3-16-0 record specifically with Arizona. While his completion percentage has been strong (65.0% overall, with games at 73.0%, 73.1%, and multiple games in the 60s), the offense ranks dead last in red zone efficiency at 44%, converting only 42.86% of red zone trips into touchdowns. The source argues this is unsustainable and suggests benching Brissett in favor of Gardner Minshew or rookie Carson Beck to see if a change at quarterback can unlock the offense's ability to finish drives.
