I think he's making some of the right reads but as you say he's missing them. But I think he's also making a fair few incorrect reads. He's missed the easy option at times.

In many ways I think we were dazzled by his athleticism and it hid a lot of it that this is now just becoming very obvious. What's worse..... R-words fans were trying to say "oh boy, he's the next RGIII" when he shredded his knee in 2017. My comback was always "No, he can read a defense". The last two games are making me question some of it. I'm really hoping this is just rust from not having a proper TC\PS I was hoping the lack of training camp/preseason was the issue, but in reality his mechanics have been questionable since the knee injury. It's mind boggling how badly he misses high on passes over the middle and on dump offs to the RBs. Also, I feel like our screen passes have been incredibly awkward looking the last couple of years (setup and execution) but I'm not so sure that's a Wentz issue as much as it's a Doug/scheme issue. The whole process just looks ugly. I think you're bang on with the athleticism point that you brought up. Look at some of the incredible plays he was able to make in 2017 that were made purely on athleticism. It masked some of the deeper mechanical issues in his game. The raw talent is most definitely there, but he has some issues that he really needs to clean up. Time to stop living off of the athleticism and the aura of the magical 2017 season. It might as well have been a decade ago at this point.

September 27, 20205 yr So I called DTV to get my Sunday Ticket back, and according to the lady I spoke to, apparently, they were already giving it to me for free this season. 😮 She even found a loyalty discount and dropped my bill $45/m. Glad I made that phone call!
