Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
My understanding of the disagreement referenced with Sproles was someone said the team would have had the exact same season with Foles starting and that Foles would have had the team at 11-2 if he played the whole season. Wentz disagreed and said without him 11-2 wouldn't have happened. Jeffrey Lurie confirmed that in his interviews this week, without Wentz there is no Super Bowl trophy.

Vegas odds on them losing those two games was just shy of +3,000 or 30-1. Call it whatever you want I guess.

Cancer in the locker room in short.
I neither agree nor disagree with that, but that’s what he was/is saying.
If that is the case it says way more about the players that didn't play with full effort than it says about Wentz. The ones that are petty and play without effort because they supposedly hate Wentz are the ones I wouldn't want on my team.

If you go to three different teams and can't win as the 2nd overall pick, then there are no more conspiracy theories to be talked about. You just aren't very good.
So, let's see what happens in Washington. The NFC East was the worst division in football last year, so if you can't win there, then I think it's obvious. I mean, the AFC South was absolute hot garbage other than Tennessee, and the colts still couldn't make the playoffs, so now he's going to the bottom feeder conference in NFL. Let's see what happens.
If only he hadn’t been drafted so soon he’d be a better player. Expectations really screw with perception.

Jesus you’re pathetic. I heard Carson didn’t spank enough teammates on the ass while in Indy and that’s what got Irsay all hot and bothered. Call the papers!
I hope when UND gets a #2 draft pick NDSU fans don’t go making a fool of themselves like this on the SS. Really wouldn’t want you to go taking a big exception or anything :hide:

Yeah man, totally normal when a guy who spent a dozen plus years in the NFL and is widely respected has to be separated from going after the injured starting QB.
The people on SS make a fool of themselves regardless and have the same inability to actually have an open-mind that maybe the person they are worshipping is actually part of the problem. But it is probably all just a big coincidence and conspiracy against CW. Which is unfortunate because I have zero doubt that he's a stand-up guy 100% off the field.

Sounds like a disfunctional locker room..
And my Vikings still found a way to get blown out by that team...

Again there has been zero proof of this supposed action. One player says something and all of a sudden it's spread as fact doesn't make it so.

Lol ahh yes, the UND fan coming to Bisonville to only throw mud is the open-minded one. How could I possibly have thought otherwise? Most people here are calling him what he is: a decent mid-grade starting quarterback, and the stats back that up. Yes, we do defend Carson when speculative stuff comes up and yes, we're also biased (and so are you). It is what it is. Ironically it's the people that wanted him to fail are the ones that put him on such a high pedestal in the first place. I have not seen one Carson supporter compare him to Brady or Rodgers and yet I've seen Carson haters do it multiple times each in this thread alone.
Two guys allegedly "needing to get separated" or "taking exception with one another" are such nothing burgers it's hilarious that you keep bringing it up. I was in locker rooms from middle school through college that had guys getting heated with each other. None of them were bad locker rooms or had cancerous personalities. Sports are very competitive.

Just glad Carson was finally able to land at a good ethical franchise with solid ownership and no controversy what so ever.
