They shouldn't be held to account by being interviewed and asked questions? They shouldn't have to answer for poor play as a team or as an individual?

Since when does a backup QB speak after the season anyway? Seriously, I give up. You got me on this one.

He's apparently the guy that Lurie and Howie want to lead this team despite the garbage he produced this last year. He should have spoken to the media. He has every other year even when he's ended the year on IR. There's no excuse for him not to speak to the media. He didn't speak because he didn't want to because he's being a little bish and the rumours that he wants out are true.

The fact that you can't see the difference between this year and every other one shows how you lack a shred of objectivity. If he wants out, we will know soon enough and you can then cry or celebrate. I just hope we don't stick with the throwing running back as the answer.

The difference between this year and every other? Yeah you're right. This year Wentz sucked. Even more reason to speak up and answer questions.
January 18, 20214 yr Rumor is the Panthers should trading pick number 8 to us for Hurts. i mean its the guys first post but he seams like he knows what hes talking about :) Time to close down the threat.

Would you feel like coming out and speaking after a horrible season and a benching and finally a healthy scratch? Would you want to speak after you coach appears to have deserted you? Since when does the backup QB (as many declared) speak after the season? There is really nothing he could say that most would accept. Every word and movement and pause would be overly dissected. Its human nature to want to know, but he owes us nothing. He stunk it up and he knew it. The rest is ALL rumor mill. This right here. Anything he says will get twisted and he is probably counseled by the team and his agent to just not say anything. Just like all of the other players.

So much for saying to foles when picking up the Lombardi -“it’s gonna be me next year”- ya right. Hold big dk nick’s jock wentz and soon hurts’S too. Atleast hurts tried and u could see the games were much more enjoyable as a fan. Let’s be honest folks and not be howie’s poster boy so him sitting on the bench mouthing the words "it's not right" when they pulled him for Suds isn't whining? Got it.

When did Hurts answer any questions as a backup? Or any other backup quarterback in the league for that matter? You guys have to stop looking for reasons to hate.

At the end of the season though? Hes a leader he should have spoken to the media especially with everything going on.

The same media that has been slamming hi at every turn? He's not obligated to do ish. I can understand he would take time to let it all settle. The guy has been humble enough....for most rational people. I agree with @greend This habit the media and the fans have in Philly of getting a pound of flesh and running players out of town is so damn tired... Oh this is beyond ridiculous now. The defense this guy gets from some fans. He must be the second coming of Jesus. He's a leader on this team, he should have come out and answered questions following a diabolical year from the whole organisation. That's leadership, that's taking responsibility. Instead he declined to speak to the media on more than one occasion. Once again a rational balanced view can't be bad on a situation because some fans defend certain players, coaches etc no matter what. It is Foles vs Wentz all over again.

It's only irrational when posters like you, try to pile on the guy for stupid ish. There was turmoil, obviously. It's best to let the dust settle and not come out and have the media spin ish on you. 100% correct. Especially when you have Myth's McLane waiting for any comment for his next hatchet piece.

Looks to me like his leadership role was mostly gone. I still don't understand why a few feel that he is obligated to speak to anyone, especially as the backup QB. Everyone knows full well that nothing he said would have been taken at face value and would have still been being analyzed by the media and "fans".

Way to blow it completely out of proportion! On this subject, you are slamming people for not agreeing with your opinion. Yet, you routinely post around the board that this is an opinion board and everyone is entitled to one. Interesting dynamics at play.

You can't answer a simple question. When did Carson request a trade?

The FACT I have is Carson DECLINED an interview/opportunity to prove the rumors false. All you have is your unwavering support for a bottom five quarterback. Good day sir.
