Are the other areas of this team in your opinion good enough to support Wentz as a complimentary QB?

 

Also, on an unrelated note, do you think the offense would have been better this year if Rivers returned?

Rivers would have been awful this year with our OL. I love Rivers, but he's not good with a bad OL.

 

I think we actually have some talent that we simply don't use. Reich's play calling is vanilla, and makes it easy on Ds to compact the field. We over use Pascal for blocking purposes. Our early reads are too often rinse repeat possession routes.

The experiment is over with Wentz and Reich owned this one.  Total failure on his(Reich)part to beg  Ballard to trade for him....

Wentz still has some value, trade him to a needy QB team like the Broncos, Panthers, etc....I believe we can roll with Ehlinger with a year under his belt.

i would tank get rid of all the veterans like ty doyle fisher rhodes .   play sam and try and get the a high draft pick

My wife is from Philly and her family are season ticket holders. They warned me. 

I still think Wentz could be the guy, just get him some weapons and a full training camp, along with a more imaginative play caller.

In Week 1 with no training camp to speak of - alot different than in Week 18 with our season on the line.

In his first game with only the second team he ever played for, and it was a season opener no less. No, Rivers would have won this game, or at least not lost it by 20+.

 

Wentz is simply not good when he doesn't have an OL.

Look at 2019. 23 TDs and 20 INTs when sacked 34 times.

He was one of the least sacked QBs in 2021.

 

I love Rivers, but we all know he goes better with good OL play.

    • That’s a nearly 20 year old article.  Not exactly relevant right now with the advancements in techniques and rehab.     He’s the youngest QB in the league, with the least experience in college.     This is his tryout year.  Have a little patience.   
    • I Respectfully disagree.  I do agree that Shane is trying to win games.   What I don’t agree on is that he’s using AR to his full advantage to do so.  It may be injury concern, or that he feels AR isn’t quite back to 100% from surgery.  But he’s not using him like he did last season.    I’m not saying it’s wrong, and I hope it’s for the best.  But I think ARs development is more important to the franchise than winning right now.   I gave the example of Daniels.  They’re letting him run, it definitely helps them to stay in games.  That may not be a smart strategy if he ends up like RGknee, but you can see they’re trying to win now.  
    • To use an off season surgery as an excuse is bollocks....    He needs to step up his game and start performing. In many ways he honestly looks like one of the 5 worst QB´s in the league and again, to use a shoulder surgery as an excuse is just pure bollocks.   There simply is no development in his game, and his huge upside is what? tell me?    I don´t think one second that we will ever come close to winning anything with him as our QB.   and to make things worse read this: https://www.espn.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=2176813
    • And yet, PFF didn't grade him all that high last year.  My response to this is that the scheme is designed for the MLB and the SS to make most of the tackles.  And they do. But last year, Franklin allowed a 77% completion rate with 10.2 yards per completion, and 7.9 yards per target.  In summary, he makes a lot of tackles by scheme, but he also allows a lot of completions. I don't think of him a Great.  Or even Good.  He's Fair.   https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/F/FranZa00.htm  
    • Probably still won’t shut people up lol. But that is interesting  We are 3 games in after a shoulder surgery. What are you talking about.
