It's quite true that the Eagles OL is poor and that Wentz doesn't have the high-quality WR he has had when successful. But I've seen the point that you and others are also quite correct that Wentz has outlets and open WR short that give him plays he simply isn't taking. His cast has changed and he's failed to adapt. It inspired me to make that "what's in your head?" post about Josh because listening to Kollman's breakdown Josh does have some of the same tendencies and I don't want to see him get entrenched in that "push ball down field at all costs" habit. Wentz reminds me of Josh. Rookie Josh. That is who he is playing like. Josh is about 20 times more advanced at this stage and while he enjoys a bit of hero ball from time to time there is no way he is making these sort of mistakes routinely. 3
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 On 12/2/2020 at 7:19 AM, SoTier said: There's a serious lack of talent on the Eagles, especially on the offense. They simply haven't drafted very well in the last 5 or 6 years. For example, Wentz is their only Pro Bowler that they've drafted during that period. Their OL, once the best in the league, gave a remarkable facsimile of some of the Bills' worst OLs from the Jauron era against the Seahawks. I think the FO needs to be held at least if not more responsible for the Eagles failures as Pederson. Their offensive line is basically shredded. They had peters come out of retirement when Dillard got hurt. Brooks missed the entire season at RG. Johnsons been banged up all year and now hes done for the year. Peters missed time. Seumalo missed half the season at LG. They legit have only had Kelce start 11 games. There's talent along the line, they just haven't played. Buffalo's had a lot of moving parts on the line, but you have to remember how incredibly top heavy Philly is with all those big contracts given out. The drop off is huge. I think the front office gave out some contracts that they shouldn't have, and now they're hamstrung cap-wise. 1
mannc Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Wanna see the worst 41-yard completion in history? Carson Wentz should not see the field again this year... Edited December 7, 2020 by mannc 2

It was the easiest touchdown in the world if Wentz just threw the damn ball on time from a proper base and where it needed to be. Edited December 7, 2020 by GunnerBill
Doc Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Reportedly the drafting of Hurts has destroyed Wentz's confidence. Ouch.

Wentz is one of my favorite players in the NFL because of his work off the field, he is a very good human being. However, maybe its time to focus solely on the work off the field if this is the case.

I think they have a talent problem (maybe QB) and he is not the GM and it wasn't that long ago he was toast of the league. Dude won a Super Bowl with Nick Foles.
