What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.

I have had Sunday NFL Ticket for years and have watched every single game that Wentz has played in the NFL. He was the toast of the NFL in 2017 and then he blew out his knee in week 13. Nick Foles took over and played mostly like crap until the NFC Championship game against the Vikings and the Super Bowl against the Patriots. Foles being the QB on the field for that Super Bowl win ended it for Wentz in Philly. Most of the media claimed that if Wentz had not been injured they wouldn't have won the Super Bowl. It ended up causing a locker room divide and the ones that preferred Foles went public with complaints against Wentz. The media and fans ate it up and liked Foles from his previous time with the Eagles.

This season Wentz was playing very well up to and through the Bucs game. His play in the 2nd quarter of that game was the best I had seen him play since 2017. He lit them up. That was the game where the Colts ran a bunch of RPO's. Wentz made the correct read and they didn't run Taylor enough according to the fans and media. The turnovers Wentz had in that game were all down near the end zone so the fact that the Bucs scored on them meant the defense didn't rise up and stop them.

After that game the Colts pretty much quit using the RPO and made Taylor the focal point of the offense. They didn't have Wentz pass much unless the down and distance was big enough to force it.

The entire team collapsed in the final 2 games of the season. Taylor and the offensive line couldn't get a first down or touchdown on 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 at least 3 times in the Jags game. The 4th and 1 was at the goal line and a TD would have changed the game and put the Colts right back in it.

I watched multiple NFL QB's throw picks as bad as the one in the end zone in the Titans game and every one of them got a pass as they brought up Wentz and laughed about Wentz. Stafford threw 2 of them the week after that Wentz pick. Kyler Murray threw 2 of them in different games.

Wentz is unfairly criticized and I think it is his outspoken Christianity and the fact that he isn't a partier. He goes to the facility does his workout, watches his film, goes to his meetings and goes home to his family.

That said from all accounts Wentz fit in very well with the Colts and was well liked in their locker room. The plastic comment in McFooley's article was not included in any articles I read about Wentz this year and I don't think I missed a single one of them.

I hope Wentz is given a true shot to lead an offense and lead a team. I think he would have been much better in year 2 with the Colts but it seems the owner wants nothing to do with him.

I have never seen a guy get treated so hot and cold even here on Bisonville. People on here treated him quite poorly when he was hurt at NDSU and worked his butt off to come back and win the title for us after saving us the year before and I couldn't figure out exactly why. Kleiman never had a doubt who was starting. I am forever a Wentz fan as I told my son that when has there ever been a player drafted and starting as a QB in the NFL from where we live. I am also a realist by nature and believe he has had some average years statistically, but some of his plays have been downright ugly. But his stats in 2019 and this year were quite similar 27 TDS and 7 Int which simply is not bad at all. By the way this is with very average to poor (Eagles) receivers over the past few years. I think the Colts dump him because of the Owner being ticked about not being vaccinated, which is quite comical cause people that were vaccinated missed about as much time as Wentz did. I really wish they would give him one more year or that he ends up with the Vikes and their ridiculous receiving corp. For whatever the reason he is a lightning rod and I believe it is unfortunate.

Its one thing if you injure your knee, its another thing if you injury your heart. Former is okay, later men can never recover from. He is not the same ever since, you know what. He looks unsure and very indecisive in key moments.

[unbison]

You are 100% correct. Can't explain that to the libtards here as they are blind to their own bias.

The political section is closed so this may get deleted ..: but I’m gonna try and explain how that attitude actually makes you the sheep…. What each political party wants is us as Americans to busy fighting with each other over subtle differences which we could overcome if we would sit down and actually talk about it… all the while we are distracted clamoring about the other side they are free to work together on their moneygrab… while placating the masses with talk of liberals and conservatives… sorry you can hate all you want and flame on… but really stop and take a look at what is happening we spend years changing to only spend years changing things back trillions of dollars spent to spin the public and keep them engaged in shenigans …. It’s a awful shame

The whole Colts team looked like crap after the COVID outbreak this year. I am wondering if they were still feeling some effects. I know my head isn’t always in the game when I don’t feel well. Even a cold or flu can impact high level performances. Wentz played crappy in the last two games, but the whole rest of the team played crappy too. I have not heard anything about locker room issues this year, so is Irsay just throwing a temper tantrum?

I was surprised at how many masks the Colts had on hardknocks. Wasn't just Carson. That team was full of antivaxers. They should have bought fake immunization cards.

Possibly long haul effects from covid? Brain fog perhaps?

Don't know the answer for sure, just speculating

Irsay had dinner with Wentz in Nashville on Saturday. then all this hubbub got put out there by chris mortensen.

I say Mortensen is just throwing poo at the wall and got the clicks he needed (Schefter has taken his nfl jock throne)

if Jonathon Taylor Loves Carson Wentz and the Head Coach Loves Carson Wentz... then Carson will be a Colt QB next year.

What are the local media saying? I'd trust local media in a small market where everyone is a Colts fan x1,000 more than the ESPN news factory where every thing is a story. Philly media was really no different in their desire to generate clicks, drive agendas, etc.

I have yet to read one negative thing out of anything from Indy.

Ah yes, John Sigler. Funny how Yahoo Sports doesn't post a link to his bio, wonder why?

Oh yeah, because he's a random Saints fan that graduated from Southern Miss in 2015. Lol. Got your and my clicks, so I guess it worked. Nice job
