Re: Welcome Carson Wentz

What is odd to me is why did the colts give up on him? Especially Frank Reich. I watched the first hard knocks episode last night, that guy loved Carson. They don't have a QB in the wings and we gave them really nothing to solve that issue in the trade.

I can see why the Eagles moved on from him, they had Hurts who they feel is better, fine and that got a 1st round pick for Carson.

Just red flags too me.

I definitely get the concern about two teams moving on from him.

BUT...

Considering this is going to be the 6th straight season the Colts start opening day with a different QB, maybe it's worth asking what red flags are coming from that organization too.

I bet Reich would have liked one more year of Wentz and not be put in the conundrum they are in at QB now.

NFL Network this morning reported that it was Irsay that wanted to move on not Ballard.

This makes me feel a lot better. Another owner with a history of dumb calling the shots over the GM who wanted Wentz to stay? Everyone should should feel better about this

Yeah I think it was mainly Irsay driving this move.

Decent read:

https://www.nj.com/eagles/2022/03/ca...th-the-qb.html

Jim I is a fucking whack job himself. All the owners are pretty much whack jobs. In that article Wentz even tired to reach out to Jim I to clear the air. I think a sane person would have been like lets try one more year with Carson and get him some WR help, then make a decision in 2024. Nope instead trade him for song and lets go all in on trying to get a Jim G type guy. Maybe its me but not sure jimmy G is much of a upgrade over Carson.

If they want to just have someone hand the ball off 30 times a game Jimmy G can definitely handle that.
