There are a number of throws in here that we have NEVER seen from a WSH QB.

He's definitely capable of highlight reel plays... there was that play from a few years ago where it looked like we had him sacked, and he came out of the pile somehow and took off on a big scramble. He never gives up on a play, sometime to his detriment though.

Here's the play I was thinking about, crazy

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

No question Wentz is going to stretch the field.

Defenses will have to honor the deep passing accuracy. No more more creeping safeties up or letting corners just sit on routes cause they know Hieneke can’t beat them deep

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

Heineke's arm looks much worse in person than on TV.. The TD Pass to Terry vs GB, It was a miracle he came down with that LOL. I Like the dude but def the weakest arm in the league

He was in the top 10 of QBs this season 20 plus yards in the air.

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

We won 7 games last year with a tough schedule and TH under center … what throws does Taylor make that Carson can’t ?
So if Wentz comes in adds the threat to go deep and does no more than Taylor in the short pass game that should get us more wins IF the rest of team Defense shows up .. Wentz is a upgrade for sure !!

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

Keim wrote a nice article on the team's QB search progress. I originally wasn't happy with the move, but the more I read details about Wentz and how the team tried to find a QB, the more I feel like the team made the best move given the limited options.

Nice idea to sit down with Gibbs at the start, just Ron and Joe. I am sure Gibbs has kept up to some degree with the evolution of QBs and must have some great insights into finding QBs and what to look for

Looking at where a team like the Panthers stand at right now makes me thankful the team made this move.

They're basically rolling with Darnold and probably, and will need to pay up for a QB in the draft.

This team could very easily win 7 games w/ Wentz.

It's all on him, if he can play like he did last year then I'll say we will be in the NFCE Mix.

If TH had 27 tds and 7ints we would have been in the playoffs.

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

Wentz does not have to play lights out for us to win 10 games .. just take what’s there and cut down on the turnovers .. the deep threat should open up the underneath game …

I'd clarify that; cut down on the fumbles. In only 2 years in 6 his INT's exceeded 7 (weirdly 7 in all 4 years), and one of those was his rookie season (though yeah, his worst years were the only 2 full seasons...). Fumbles though, he's had almost half as many of those as TD's! He's only lost 28 of 66, but that's still averaging 11 fumbles a season (4.66 lost per). Needs to improve.

Statistically he comes in between Goff and Prescott, from the same draft. If he can get closer to Prescott in performance and kill the fumbles, I agree we could be challenging for the East quite easily.
