Seems like the reporter was kinda dogging Wentz. Carson is not a star QB and he certainly had his ups and downs with us, but he genuinely seems like a decent, professional guy, and I don’t like seeing a former Colt getting torn to shreds in the media. I feel bad for the guy, hope he has a good season (just not when he plays us).

I saw the clip of the interview. There is no doubt the reporter was a jerk. There are some difficult topics that are legitimate to question Wentz on but the way this reporter approached it was wrong, IMO. Carson handled it as well as anyone could have though. 

 

With that said I don't think it was a good move for Wright to go on social media and post what he did. I can appreciate his desire to stick up for one of his players but I don't think his statements are what you want from the President of an NFL team. 

 

Reporters play an important role and asking tough questions, ones which teams/players don't like, is a vital part of it. Wright would have been wiser to let the interview speak for itself and move on.

Agreed. I don’t think responding to inflammatory comments with more inflammatory comments is helpful. Wentz took the right approach here, and I think Wright should have followed his example. I do understand sticking up for your players, but attacking the media, whether they deserve it or not, is playing with fire.
