He was absolutely culprit #1 the first two games, and he had his share of mistakes today, but he put together that game tying drive and he made a beautiful throw to Ertz that should've set up the game winning FG. Penalties and cowardly play calling stole a tie from the jaws of victory after that Ertz play.If the Eagles want any kind of chance to get back into the season this year, I don't see how they can keep starting Wentz. It's not like last season where the entire team was falling apart and Wentz got a lot of unfair blame just because he wasn't good enough at times to will a substandard offensive supporting cast to victory over better teams. But he's actively costing us games right now. Like, a better QB would at least have the Eagles at 2-1 right now.
I get that we can't trade or cut Wentz, thanks to his contract. I know that, because I was saying exactly that when everyone here seemed to think Hurts was drafted to replace Wentz. But he can be benched. And if the Eagles want any chance at winning, they can't keep starting a QB who's costing them chances to win.
Even if you truly believe handing the keys over to a rookie QB fresh off a covid offseason is the move to make, it's not gonna happen. They're too invested in Wentz for 20 & 21 and it's in everybody's best interest that he gets through this rough patch and gets back on track, whether he's gonna be here in 2022 or not.
