Not looking like a great trade trade for the Eagles. Can’t wait to see what bust Howie drafts with the Indy pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShutDownDB Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 This is how many times now the Colts could have sat Wentz at the end of games? Like others have said, all the talk about preserving the first rounder seems to be all media and fan driven. If he were playing like 2020 then yeah, I could absolutely see them benching him to keep that pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring a new injury, exacerbating his current injury, or just completely ishing the bed, they are not sitting him if he's healthy, (by football standards) and playing well.

D-Shiznit Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Yeah, this game did the trick. They aren’t going to pull him. They’ll win against Jax and trash teams like they did today, but get rolled against the better teams. Should net us a top 12ish pick, barring injury.

I knew you would climb out of your self pity rock when you boy beat up the hapless Jets. At least have the stones to be there for your guy when the was at his lowest. You Wentz beanbaggers are a bunch of fair weather losers. Only show your faces when your boy beats up on the crap teams in the league. I’m done with you. In short don’t be a fair weather beanbagger.

time2rock Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Wentz most definitely playing much better this year under Reich than he did last year here under Doug. They aren't going to pull him, so we should get their 2022 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that could prevent that from happening at this point will be either him getting a legit injury or something Covid related. Odds seem pretty reasonable at this point the pick will be the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see it being top 10 as it has been when the season ends. Hopefully closer to 11-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggles_Phan Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 For those interested... I believe the number is currently 99.17% of snaps played through 9 games. Over 17 games with the number of offensive snaps on average (67 rounded up) snaps per game... that's a total of 1139 snaps. Let's round that up to 1150 snaps for the sake of argument and to have a bit of cushion... 75% of snaps would be 863 (rounded up). He's played 596 snaps. So, he needs 267 more snaps. That's just under 4 games worth of snaps... meaning (as previously projected) the magic game is Week 13. If he plays all the snaps through out that game (and every game leading up to it), the pick is fairly secure by that point. He has missed 5 snaps total this year, regardless of the blowout status. I don't think the Colts have any intention of benching him to preserve the pick. If they did, they'd have been pulling him from games for kneel downs and garbage time all season. They haven't done it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent chance he doesn't sustain drives as well as Wentz does, possibly lowering the average snaps per game taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all started because Howie drafted Hurts in the 2nd round and then they (probably Howie) benched him for Hurts. Howie’s F’ed this team up in so many ways.

He was the worst QB statistically last year up until being benched. He deserved to be benched because his play was horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxeaglesfanxx Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Colts won again so while it lowers the pick in the first it will also help keep the pick a first rounder if they have a shot at the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wentz wanted the money the Eagles gave him that’s all we really know because he signed a contract. The Eagles wanted a player who they could count on in the playoffs. They didn’t get that, so they drafted some insurance so they didn’t have to go with a 40 something year old backup. Maybe if Wentz handled the drafting of Hurtts like Rodgers handled the drafting of that kid in the first round it never would have happened. You can try to excuse it away all you like with assumptions, but the bottom line is Wentz requested a trade. Ben Simmons signed an extension with the Sixers. It doesn’t mean he ever truly wanted to play for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
