nipples Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Anyway this is pointless because regardless of what is said, nothing will convince the Wentz fanboys of his shortcomings. All you have to do to know that he has accuracy issues is watch the games. It’s always been an issue with him, stemming from poor mechanics. This is no secret.

When all you complete is 7-8 yard passes to Ertz it's easy to pad your numbers. You have problems opening your eyes and believing what you see, I don't. Rodgers and Brees also throw a lot of quick short passes. In fact more than Wentz. But don't let your hate blind you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is saying he did not play poorly last year, but it is not all on him. He is the Eagles single season leader in TD passes, completion percentage, yards. It's not like he is some scrub who has never done anything. Why don't you wait for a new staff, with a non predictable offense do its thing first before writing him off. I have a buddy up here in Washington that is a huge Hawks fan, but watches a bunch of Eagles games because of me. He said to me once the Pederson to Seattle reports started, "I hated Darrel Bevel as an offensive coordinator, but I would take him back over Doug Pederson" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in trying to make them understand reasonable logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in trying to make them understand reasonable logic. They have Michael Bradley on one of the local shows every Tuesday, and the local guys asked him about Carson Wentz and the issues with the Eagles, his response " If I was going to talk about the problems with the Eagles in order, I would need to be on several segments before I got to Carson Wentz " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is still a bigger problem but hopefully he learned something form his last round of stupid drafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick passes are what the G.B offense is known for. Do they ever throw down the field? Absolutely. Consequently that's exactly what we should have done here last year. Quick passes and take shots here and there. Also run the ball in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody knows that except Wentz haters. Wentz was the biggest problem last year. I was a huge Wentz fan and I believe he was very good in 2018 and 2019 given the situations. Last year though he was flat out terrible. One of the worst QBs in the league. If he had been benched earlier in the season we likely would have won the division. Although at this point I certainly prefer the draft position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so sure about that. Hurts beat Taysom Hill, led the Eagles to points on 2 of 24 second half possessions. He completed a lower percentage of passes, and was on pace to have more total turnovers than Wentz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes that comes at the expense of going unscripted from the actual play call and WRs that are open. He is still a work in progress about being able to stop himself from scrambling and learning to progress through more than his first read. I was hoping to see more progress in the last week, but he looked even worse in that last game. Maybe new coaches can help him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
