Why, because of performance, injury..?

So you think they gave him that massive contract extension, barely over a year ago, and then decided they had seen enough by the 2020 draft?

The writing was on the wall, he was always hurt and honestly he really isn't that good, he's a Kirk Cousins type of QB. Mid tier

I think Hurts was brought in as insurance because of the injury history, but I have to believe that they weren't expecting Wentz to fold like a lounge chair this season. Hurts was drafted only 9 months after they gave Wentz that huge payday...

Who knew his psyche was so fragile. I think it's 100% mental at this point.

No, it's 90% mental. The other half is physical.

100.

He still has talent, he is shell shocked or thinking too much or something.

If he goes cheap, I would be totally on board with taking a flyer on him.

Agreed. If you can get him on the cheap, I think Washington would be a good place to give him a second shot. I mean the guy had 2 MVPish seasons to start his career... We can question some decision making, but our coaching staff is proving to be a good players motivating staff, so I say why not bring him in and make him compete with Alex ? I don't think he has work ethic issue, he just looks scared and stressed out of his talent.

Re: Around the NFL week 14

Ok. I'm officially scoreboard watching from here on out, until I don't have a reason to. Since it's the Christmas season, here's my wish list for week 14.

Wins by:
Arizona -1.5
New Orleans -7
Tampa Bay -6.5
Houston -1
Green Bay -7.5
Washington (of course) +3

They are all favored with the exception of Washington.

I can see that. He's already proven he can play at the highest level physically, and it's not like he had an injury that would change his playing style.

If Philly wants us to take Wentz and their first round pick (we need compensation for that contract) in exchange for our 7th or 6th, I'll do it.
