And when Hurts has a bad game...Wentz is here to stay. Whether he's starting or not will be the question.
Does Hurts have potential to be successful?Wentz is here to stay. Whether he's starting or not will be the question.
Or Hurts plays well but then gets hurt and out for the year and Wentz plays out of his mind then what?And when Hurts has a bad game...
”Doug are you thinking about going back to Carson?”
And around and around we go. It’s a F’ing nightmare following this team for as long as I have.
Give it a couple weeks.Wentz should have been benched long ago.
I liked the move and hope hurts continues to start
Under this coaching staff no. From the scouting report that was linked too on here last week it doesn't sound great unless the new coach is gonna scheme the offense to get guys open for you. Thats why he was successful at OU as the team scheme the plays for him. I don't think it was as much talent as it was coaches putting him in a good position.Does Hurts have potential to be successful?
It was worth the wait.How did I know he'd show up in here after this?
There’s no win. None.Or Hurts plays well but then gets hurt and out for the year and Wentz plays out of his mind then what?
Yeah that was my point. I think we need to hope Carson gets back to what he is. I'm all for starting Hurts rest of the year. Hope he plays well. Wentz comes in plays well and he can rest final 2-3 games as the Eagles clinch playoffs and Hurts comes in and plays well. Team trades Hurts after next year. I just hope he plays well enough in general so we can trade himThere’s no win. None.
Hurts plays well and you have $25 million dollar back up
Hurts plays bad- QB controversy
The Hurts echos will forever be here now as long as both are on the team.
Look at the reaction this is getting for 2 quarters of mostly garage time. He wasn’t the focus at all during the week and while he made 2 good throws and showed ability to move all the negatives were there. His accuracy is an issue and as long as the same OL and receivers are here he will only get worse week after week
You think it will be any different than usual?Dougy P Presser on soon should be interesting
He could well be Alex Smith'd if Hurts shows he's demonstrably better. Too expensive to cut so kept on in case of injury.Wentz is here to stay. Whether he's starting or not will be the question.
I'd rather have that predicament than the current one.Or Hurts plays well but then gets hurt and out for the year and Wentz plays out of his mind then what?
That probably wouldn’t hurt Hurts’ development and gameplay either. He’d probably enjoy all the Wentz questions after a below average performance as a young player.He could well be Alex Smith'd if Hurts shows he's demonstrably better. Too expensive to cut so kept on in case of injury.
it's a bit. Doug isn't as snippy or avoiding all of the questionsYou think it will be any different than usual?
It's almost like we saw this coming on a Friday night in April.“Carson Wentz says he doesn’t feel like he can benefit from getting a game off.”
This will get worse than I ever imagined.
The biggest troll on the board returns. Great.It was worth the wait.
To all of the people that were angry we kept Wentz over Foles, you kinda get your wish: This team's got a Nick Foles now. Back-up QB with a shockingly great season in the rearview mirror that makes 20x what the starter makes just in case you need to have him go in if Hurts gets injured.This franchise will take the hit every single day until 2024Wentz dead money...

I said it here, if they can trade Miles they should. (if they can get value of course, not for less then they paid)I made the mistake to look at Bleeding Greens Facebook updates. Excuses already there. One guy already wants to trade Everyone not named Hurts and Reagor including Miles.
Hopefully Peters is done too. Herbig needs to play to get that development. Something this team is do bad at providing.Jeffrey getting all this playing time is inexcusable though. No one is trading for him, he is slow and done, Fulgham, Ward, and Reagor, with Hightower coming in as a 4th. That's it.
Foles has been pretty rough since leaving Philly. Both times. I believe in Carson but something is seriously wrong... something needs a shake up in his head.To all of the people that were angry we kept Wentz over Foles, you kinda get your wish: This team's got a Nick Foles now.

The ignore feature is your friend.The biggest troll on the board returns. Great.
At this point that might not be a bad idea. We need to either realize we are a playoff team or a couple years away. I'd almost hit the reset button at this point and just go crazy on youth this offseason.I said it here, if they can trade Miles they should.

Should be able to get at least a 2 for him.At this point that might not be a bad idea. We need to either realize we are a playoff team or a couple years away. I'd almost hit the reset button at this point and just go crazy on youth this offseason.
Exactly. He's a good piece - but we aren't going to be competitive until after we'd need to extend him.At this point that might not be a bad idea.

People don't really trade for RB's much anymore though. When's the last time a big named RB was traded and what was the compensation?Should be able to get at least a 2 for him.
Difference is he still has 2 years on his rookie deal and fresh legs.People don't really trade for RB's much anymore though. When's the last time a big named RB was traded and what was the compensation?
Just trying to think of Win Now teams that need an RB.Difference is he still has 2 years on his rookie deal and fresh legs.
I don’t disagree that he doesn’t look the same but just from watching it’s the sum of many parts.Foles has been pretty rough since leaving Philly. Both times. I believe in Carson but something is seriously wrong... something needs a shake up in his head.
Belichek will give up a first for Wentz and win 2 super bowls at least with him.I don’t disagree that he doesn’t look the same but just from watching it’s the sum of many parts.
Like @Insein mentioned above, you could see this coming in April. Then the injuries started. Then we saw Doug take a step or 10 back as well.
I saw a tweet a few minutes ago and it kind of made me laugh a little.
“Newton is 21-37 for 153 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs, 4 sacks over the past TWO weeks! Patriots have won both games lol.”
Thats a win over Arizona and a dismantling of the Chargers today. Why did it make me laugh a little? This city and fan base is supposed to be knowledgeable. How can they not understand the importance of a supporting cast and how vital good coaching is? I’m fine if they start Hurts. There’s nothing to lose now. Be thankful Wentz isn’t physically hurt and give him a break. If people are expecting Hurts to look better for a while with this coaching staff and supporting cast that seems absolutely crazy to me but it is 2020
ShahBucks, is that you?LOL !!! Wentz on the Bench !!!
I told everyone Wentz Sucks and everyone got all offended !!!
Actually I am going to step it up a notch !!!! This Season he is the Worst QB in the NFL !!!
He makes Darnold and Lock look good! And he never was as good as Foles !
Already 1 too many replies to this guys post. Hopefully the rest can ignore it.ShahBucks, is that you?
Hurts will win the NFC EastSo coming up...
New Orleans, Arizona, Dallas, Washington
Think we get one win in here?
Hope not. Crazy to think that if Jax had pulled that off today, we woulda been close to getting Fields.So coming up...
New Orleans, Arizona, Dallas, Washington
Think we get one win in here?
That was the loss they had to turn to a W. As long as they win the games they should, they got this now.He played fine, but Eagles won't win. I think the Giants sealed it by beating the Seahawks today.
I'd say it's a lock.Top 5 pick looking and more and more likely.
