July 24, 20205 yr Not to rock the boat but ,wentz is overrated, lots of fumbles..poor record against teams about 500, always injured. Where to begin? Now four years into his NFL career, Wentz has been unable to finish three of those seasons due to numerous injuries. Sure the concussion he suffered in the playoffs last season was an outlier, but this has to be concerning to the Eagles. How much so? They exhausted a second-round pick on quarterback Jalen Hurts in April’s draft. To make matters even more interesting in Philadelphia, this former No. 2 overall pick is playing under a four-year, $128 million contract. At least statistically, he’s not even the best quarterback in the NFC East. That honor goes to Dak Prescott with Daniel Jones set to take off as a starter. Could the Eagles already be ruing the decision to extend Wentz despite backing him publicly? It’s more than possible. Currently not top 15 qb. Imo.

OK - Do you think he played at an MVP level in 2017?
July 24, 20205 yr Played well ,but imo couldn't have matched foles ,run. How many playoff games has he won? Record against teams 500 or better? How many turnovers?
July 24, 20205 yr Don't care what happens in 2020 so long as This Tape is played in the D rooms. Especially LB's/DE's & S's . NFL Defense has gone soft. What's all that BS by Drake gotten the Kings of the Combine? Give me the 77 Raiders/ 86 Giants over any stupid "measurable" unit. Heck I'd take anyone who even remotely resembles Ronnie Lott <g> #NoQuarter

July 24, 20205 yr Mahomes Wilson Brady Brees Dak Rodgers Ryan Cousins Jackson Watson Some young ones I personally would take over him ,murray being one
July 24, 20205 yr Nice thing with today's nfl,no such thing as a pro ready QB, QBs that never had a shot before, ie air raid guys, are pro ready. This years qb draft is silly ,ready..imo one of deepest qb drafts in quite a while. And my two favorites arent even eligible Slovis and Howell ,two best QBs in college both true freshman last year, Lance is my 3rd favorite....yes over fields and Lawrence

Very unbalanced report that can do without the editorial comments on Douglas and Gase. Adams’ quotes reaffirm my opinion that he will be a detriment to whatever team is dumb enough to mortgage the farm on him.
July 24, 20205 yr How many playoff games has wentz won? Record against 500 and better clubs? Turnovers? Dont name call just elaborate

July 24, 20205 yr Just now, Original Sin said: How many playoff games has wentz won? Record against 500 and better clubs? Turnovers? Dont name call just elaborate Every QB functions in their own environment and it’s largely irrelevant to try to rank them 1-32. The only serious question regarding Wentz is whether he’s the right franchise QB for the Eagles and, if not, what are the organization’s options moving forward? Wentz is still early in his career, as many franchise QBs are playing until 40 or over. His contract is fair if not team friendly compared to the contracts signed after him. He is objectively a top 7-8 QB league-wide; any assertion that he is outside the top 10 from a talent and playmaking standpoint is lacking in objectivity or football knowledge — you can make your own decision which you fit into. The organization will make a decision on Wentz’s viability as it relates to his health; that was likely a factor in the Hurts pick. If Wentz can stay healthy all indications are he will be the Eagles starting QB for the next 10 years.

July 24, 20205 yr Sorry Manu, I thought we could have a educated exchange, but I was wrong....if not all rose's, som e get feelings hurt

July 24, 20205 yr 9 minutes ago, 4for4EaglesNest said: He has to be referring to the wrap around into the 2018 season. I can’t say I disagree with him. If Wentz never got hurt and played like he did the first 3/4 of 2017. He’s got a point. Got it. I totally misread that. Yet his post still says TO was a bigger loss. Whoever says losing TO was a bigger loss than Wentz in that moment can't be serious. Eagles were still easy favorites to get to the SB without TO. Sorry to hear about your dad that same week. Glad the Birds went out and won one for him.
July 24, 20205 yr 9 minutes ago, Original Sin said: Simple question.... How old is wentz? How long has he been in the league? Very simple question; not so simple to see any relevance. Wentz is 27 and played for 4 seasons — why, is that pretty much the end for most NFL QBs?
July 24, 20205 yr How many playoff games has he won to date? And his record against teams 500 or above? And how many QBs with the same stats went on to win a superbowl at the age of 27 ?

He wants old school defenses that are hard-nosed and mean. Despite the safety rules of today's NFL, he would rather the defense take someone's head off even though they would be ejected immediately. <g> #NoQuarter - This is referring to either Blackbeard the Pirate or Led Zeppelin.
