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

Possibly but I think it has to be more than just win. If he plays really well and they win it will make it hard to start JJ. If they win and he has 175 yards a TD and no INTs then I'm not sure JJ couldn't do the same thing. Bottom line, imo, it's going to be hard to keep JJ on the bench without an impressive showing.

If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's wins and losses mean way more than how the QB actually plays.

I’m not so sure… if Wentz keeps winning, maybe they stick with him until he loses or plays poor. I could also see them go back to JJ again for a game or 2 and then he gEtS iNjUrEd again after playing poorly again and Wentz gets the rest of the season…

You are correct. I don't understand the rush to play JJM over CW. HOw many seasons did Aaron Rodgers sit on the bench in Green Bay before he got his shot at starting? Oh...... impetuous youth

If Carson can play anywhere close to the final drive against the Browns there is no way KOC benches him. Wentz made that drive look easy. Get the ball out quick and let the playmakers make the plays. I think KOC likes Carson and I know he feels like he can run the offense he wants to run when Carson is playing. Against Atlanta KOC was completely exasperated with how poorly JJ played. Carson is by far the best QB on the roster and only the idiots that listen to and believe the NFL media that hates Carson believe that isn't true.

Tell him to throw the fucking ball away. He's too old to be running and taking unnecessary hits.

Pretty interesting article about this and some other things I thought, pretty complimentary of him in general https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/672...les-gratitude/

Gotta love it when Mahomes took a hit going for a first down last week, the commentators loved it, and were like "Who else does that!?!". Wentz does, and gets admonished for it. People speak in awe of Kobe Bryant shooting a free throw and walking off the court under his own power with a torn ACL - Wentz threw a touchdown with a torn ACL! Put that in the tough guy HOF.

First down or second down? Please slide. Third down, a yard away from the first down marker? Be you.

I have always had a hard time liking the star players in any league because TV crews can't help but gush over them constantly and everything, they do is so smart, so amazing, so perfect even when like you said it's such obvious hypocrisy. It's a huge reason why I can't stand Mahomes and watch his games hoping to see him lose. That and his stupid fake like he's stepping out of bounds and then knowing the defender has to let up takes an extra step forward. I wait with bated breath every week hoping someone lays him on his ass when he does that shit.

EDIT: Also, GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

Is it wrong to hope for Carson to do good and the charges qb to get hurt this weekend?

If you hope for injuries for anyone, it makes you a terrible person.

I'm with you. LeBron is the one I can't stand. Mahomes has climbed that list rapidly with his whining to the refs.

Even if their backup went to NDSU?
