This has been beaten to death but Wentz was the best we were ever going get in the off season. He is a upgrade over TH.

Honestly be happy we didn't sell the farm on Wilson that been a real blow.
I agree a change needed to be made but the real point is that Wentz is Snyder's guy not Rivera's guy. Once again a coach is being forced to use a QB that he doesn't want.

I guess, but who would have been RR's guy (that was available and willing to come here)?

Matt Ryan

Marcus Mariota

Jimmy G

At this point Jimmy G was probably the best to get out of that QB class of trades and FA's but no one wanted to take a chance on his shoulder

The problems of this team run much deeper then the QB spot and Wentz.

At this point i say ride out Wentz and WHEN its clear as day we are out the playoff picture, ( some could argue its pretty much now) then I run Sam a few games to see what we really have in him so we make a sound QB decision for 23/24 season.

Don't wanna believe it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

This franchise has more red flags than China.

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

Snyder has always picked the QB.
Why is this news?

Exactly and the biggest problem isn't who is picked its the picker. Until the picker is gone this franchise will spin wheels for years and years.

I'm not arguing that Wentz was the wrong decision (I liked it). Who would have been Ron's guy, who knows? But again the owner is meddling and screwing up the team. That's probably why Wash gave up draft picks to get Wentz, it wasn't Ron's idea to do that it was Dan's.

I agree, ride Wentz and see what happens.

Most likely.

Which makes me wonder if RR's comments about the NFE East and QBs earlier this week was more a dig at DS then CW.

My sources say it is Dan Snyder's attempt to wag the dog

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

I would like to point out that Riverboat Ron was force fed Haskins on day one and Wentz in Season 3.

No way he took the job expecting full control, dude is here cashing check.

Knowing what we know now it most definitely was.

I disagree. I think he thought he was getting full control but quickly realized he had been lied to. Now he's cashing his check like every other coach Snyder lied to knowing he will be out of here soon.

Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

I don't think he was force fed Haskins. He made the best choice in his first year to see what first round pick Haskins had to offer in his system. I think it was the best choice, even though it didn't work out. Then he not only replaced him, but eventually released him. We all know Haskins was DS's pick, and by how he handled the Haskins situation, RR showed that he had full control in year 1.

I don't know if I'm buying the idea that Wentz was forced onto RR either. Maybe it is true that DS wanted Wentz, but it's probably more likely that the decision to bring him in was ultimately Ron's. I still don't think it was a bad move. It hasn't worked out well so far, but in my opinion that has more to do with the poor decisions with regard to the O-line, and the numbnut calling the plays.

Honestly, not addressing the center position with Chase coming off a broken leg, and of course bringing in these two terrible guards to replace Flowers and Scherff were just dumb decisions, and the biggest reason this team has only (barely) won one game.
