Without deflections or moving the goal posts, please explain how calling 141 passing plays vs 52 runs the last 3 weeks is making things easier for the QB.  And of those 141 passing plays, I believe 6 designed roll outs.

I stated that Pederson simplified the offense and posted more than one source confirming that.  Whether you agree that it was "simplified enough" or "not simplified" is between you and the coaching staff.

You taking concussions lightly just shows how little you know about concussions and their lasting ramifications. 

I don't think there's necessarily evidence about a single mild TBI causing permanent loss of executive functioning.  I think there's some evidence that it can cause a potential chronic condition meaning that it lasts more than a year.   So it could be the concussion but I don't think we know that it is.  Additionally, if it is the concussion then your question should be whether the condition will resolve over time.  I think there's a likelihood that his condition would continue to resolve rather than be permanent.

Not me, I was truly sick winning the Dallas/Giants week 16 and 17 Wentz's rookie year. Forget the order, but I knew going into those week's wed win and I was sick to my stomach

7 and 9 got us Barnett instead of 5-11 getting us Jamal Adams 

Naw. Those wins helped propel this team’s confidence into next season. Specifically, Wentz.

And I will say the Eagles running game since the first Giants game has got better every single week up until this week. Meanwhile the passing game since that first Giants game has gotten worse every single week. So does it make a lot of sense to be pass happy when you run blocking had been improving over four weeks and your passing game has regressed each week 

Giants 23 for 156

Browns 25 for 106

Looking at the Browns and Hawks box scores, they ran the ball pretty ineffectively, but they stuck with it.

Yeah that clearly helped in 2012 and from last year to this year

It's always been my opinion .  99% of the posts in this blog are people's "opinions".

 

And yet you said you deal with 100% of facts.....

And yet again you try to prove it as it was factually true for multiple posts when you were debating with me. Bravo. 

I posted "evidence" to back my opinion.  Unlike many others in this blog, most of my opinions I can back with evidence.

You are posting an article that is making a statement with no facts, please explain how calling 141 passing plays vs 52 runs the last 3 weeks is making things easier for the QB.  And of those 141 passing plays, I believe 6 designed roll outs.  Having a 25:75 run pass ratio IS NOT simplifying the offense.

80% of the time

I deal with facts that help me form my opinions.  Yes, you are correct.

Actually the Seahawks are sticking with the run because their defense had gotten torched so they are trying to limit possessions of the other team on offense. Hence their defense much better the last three weeks. Also throwing it all the time Wilson’s turnovers had accumulated (7 in 3 games) and he was getting hit way too often.

Bless your heart. Frankly don’t care enough to have this. You did what you did and everyone can see it.

Maybe....the funny part is that I still reason better than most Wentz-Bots in this blog.  So what does that tell you?

So you are telling me the coach of the Seahawks is going with a 50:50 run pass ratio to protect the defense and helping the early MVP front runner to not turn the ball over so much ??  Weird, I wouldn't have thought a coach could do that.

25:75 ratio is nice and clean much less complicated than say a 58:42 ratio, that's just wonky😉

Please explain how a 25:75 run pass ratio is helping the QB.  Pete Carroll has done the last two weeks what Doug Pederson should be doing.

Carson Wentz, 2017, MVP caliber season.  The two losses, 46 and 45 passing attempts, the two highest totals of the year.

Problem is Doug gets down 10-0 in the 2nd qtr and to him it feels like they're down 50-0 so he gets pass happy.
