It's one thing to say Wentz is better than Taylor. Ok we know that, but that's really not saying a lot. It's another to say he is better than and has a better future than Carr. I don't get that stance at all. How does Wentz have a better future than Carr? The Raiders have arguably the best wr and when healthy arguably the best TE in football. They'll probably have a better scheme and a more stable situation.
Wentz could not have come to a worse situation if you ask me. He could have all new coaches if he makes it to 2023.

I ain't much for the pecking order of mid-tier NFL qb's, but I feel like the whole "2 teams didn't want him in 2 years" thing is a stretch. It's clearly obvious now that the Colts decision to let Wentz go was from Jim Irsay and not the coaching staff. Irsay didn't like what he saw and pulled a Danny - meddling in affairs he has no business in.
Is Wentz an elite qb? Obviously not. But he's clearly better than Heinicke - every week last year there were a half-dozen plays where Taylor missed wide open guys because he can't go through progressions. We needed an upgrade and we got it.
I just need them to do something about MLB and I'll be happy.
