Final QBR: Wentz 106.2 v JG 60.9.
Pretty solid, particularly in heavy rain

But be looked pretty fast tonight on a few of his runs
Also he missed most of training camp so he was probably still learning
Well said! Really great to see things turning around for Carson, coaches, and all concerned on a lot of levels! Even the announcers sounded delighted at several times!

He played great. I'm still waiting for the Wentz hating mafia to come on this thread. Where did they all go?

He pulled it together after a rough start and a batch of questionable throws. Then he pretty much played like he always does. They have a decent running game and receivers who can catch so Wentz doesn't need to press like he had to at the end there in Philly. O-Line gave him time in the pocket last night too. Really good team win for Indy and Wentz was a big part of that with some clutch throws on money downs.

It looked like Carson was having fun other than the squirt fumble that is pretty much the ONLY video I can find on the web for this game other than a TD run he had. BTW, that kind of sucks because I am trying to do him a favor by not watching him on TV anymore and thereby jinxing him. Example: I turned on the game for one play... some sort of LOS scrimmage pick that left a receiver wide open downfield and Carson pretty much shotput the ball to him for what would have been a HUGE gain if not, you know, for the drop. I took that as a sign to follow the game via twitter where 90% of the tweets about Carson were about how much he sucks (the one thing the two loudest and dumbest fanbases, Cowboys and Eagles, agree on, apparently.)
I'm just happy Carson is out of Philadelphia. So happy. I've got nothing against the new Eagles QB, but the Eagles are averaging less than 1 TD per game in the first half this season.

Even the crazy squirt fumble was influenced by the rain, but it is true that play probably goes bad whatever the heck he was trying to do. that was the one play I though he really screwed up on. The conditions were so poor.......

No. He still has ankle issues but getting better every week.

Good things happen when you have pass catchers that can catch and an OLine that can block?

If he intentionally batted or kicked the ball I believe it would still be a touchback but now you have a foul for illegal batting or illegal kicking that would be enforced from the spot of the foul.
I was so happy to come here and see Bison fans generally understood the rule and didn't dwell on it. Great job!

We understand the rule. But it is a really stupid one.

Okay, so in 8 days, our fanbase wants to:
A) Re-define what a forward pass is,
B) Get rid of the illegal formation penalty, and now
C) Re-define long-standing touchback rules.
Are there any other ways that the game can be improved?
