I've seen speculation that he has a groin problem. It's anyones guess if that's true.

I really hope that or some other injury is the actual problem.  Gives more hope he'll improve once he's healthy.

Of course that brings up the other issue of being injury prone...

Lol I remember when I wanted him. He's rarely healthy now

You can't hit the under if you're not taking any snaps!

He’s reaching Agholor levels of unlikable.

Also obviously not good for today. Now whose going to align right while not contributing to the passing game?? Burnett will need to step up.

It also brings up the issue of a piss poor strength and conditioning staff.

That's actually a massive insult to Agholor.

Clearly, JJAW has just been traded for John Ross .... good job, Howie?

JJAW chose to duck right when we desperately need him???  I blame Joe Douglas!

Interesting that Bubba Baker is playing with his UCL and then going surgery. Every sprain is different and Reagor plays a different position and uses his hands different than Baker, but given what happened with Desean last year, this feels like deja vu all over again.

Carson’s footwork is crap and he is inaccurate partly due to using his arm strength to muscle the ball.  Out the last week of TC with something called "lower body”.  Sorry, there is that deja vu thing again. Hurts is active because it is possible that Carson may need to be pulled because of aggravating whatever that lower body thing is.  

Instead of being honest about injuries, the new norm in the NFL seems to be lying about them to the fans.  Anyone notice that this seemed to surface about the time the court case was moving forward that legalized gambling?

But according to the head coach he's the guy we can lean on in this situation.

That one little clip is all speculation.  For all we know, he may still play today.

That may have been nothing...but based on the Ertz speculation/fight we also heard about, a GM really shouldn't be getting into it with players on the field.  That's just not their place.

Things are really, really bad when we are waiting on the JJAW game status with bated breath.

For most of his career until these two games he's been pretty good, but go off.

Outside of 2017 he’s been wildly inconsistent.

But, even if I were to concede "pretty good”, that doesn’t even come close to meeting my expectations.

Maybe our standards are just different.

Why does everyone have to fight over Wentz?  Let's just call it like it is.

2016: standard/good rookie year for a top of the draft QB.

2017: MVP quality, ended with injury.

2018: inconsistent return from injury, ended with injury.

2019: inconsistent start, heroic "did more with less" second half, ended with injury.

2020: started horribly.

Wrap that up into whatever you want for the one liner on what kind of QB he is.

Crazy the difference on this board in a year. 
 

last year I said Wentz needs to play better and got bombarded with the "but there’s no run game... the receivers suck... blah blah” 

this year I’m defending him because he’s getting compared to Kevin Kolb

If Wentz throws 4TDs today and the Eagles win, it’ll be "It’s the Bengals” ..... if he leads the Eagles to a win over SF it’ll be "The Niners are injured” ....

Either that, or they will disappear until the next loss, then re-emerge with the ITYS

JJAW is playing, so I'm guessing there wasn't anything to that confrontation...

You are so dedicated to 8-8 football that it's borderline admirable.

Not for me.  I know Wentz has the ability to be great, as he has shown it.  The problem with him is consistency.  He needs to show it throughout the year, which includes staying healthy and not fumbling.  I will give him a pass for the last two games if he doesn't have anymore games like that this year.  It's time for him to put up or shut up.  No more coddling him.

That one was different IMO because it was a dirty hit from that a-hole Clowney that gave him a concussion

I still have the under for 2.5 receptions and 34.5 yards for him.

Why would howie be talking to JJAW, doesn't look like he's hurt howie doesn't have say in whether or not a player can go that's on coaches trainers so why is howie talking to him and sending him off the field.

Only reason I can think of is maybe  howie traded JJaw so he can't play or JJaw had a positive covid test show up pre game???
