Wentz responds to story: 'I'm not perfect'
11257.jpg

Responding to a January article questioning his character and 2018 attitude, Carson Wentz said "I'm not perfect."

Wentz was surprisingly introspective responding to the wave-making PhillyVoice piece, disputing some specific assertions but acknowledging some of its broader strokes. "I know I’m not perfect. I know I have flaws," Wentz said. "So I’m not going to sit here and say it was inaccurate and completely made up. I’m not going to do that." Wentz also said he's unlikely to change. "I’m 26 years old; my personality, to some extent, ain’t going to change. ... It’s what’s gotten me here, what’s gotten me successful. I’m not going to say, ‘Oh, now I’m going to have this free-spirited, Cali-guy vibe.’ That’s just not going to change." They are fascinating, candid answers from a quarterback who has had a bizarre 15 months since injury likely cost him the 2017 MVP award. Wentz will have plenty to prove in 2019. He has the skill to do it.

9. Eagles QB Carson Wentz sat down with a handful of local reporters, including Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, to clear the air after a Philly Voice story called into question his character and place in the locker room—and I like the self-awareness in how he came off. “I realize I have my shortcomings,” Wentz told the group. “Yes, I can be selfish. I think we all have selfishness inside of us. There’s human elements to that, that I really look at and say, ‘Well, I can get better.’”

Wentz is intense, and that rubs some the wrong way, but he’s also not the first quarterback to not be universally loved in his locker room. The nice thing here, for the Eagles, is that he’s at the very least cognizant of it, and wants to work on it.

I wonder how alot of players today would have reacted to Troy Aikman calling them out and screaming at them on the sidelines and in practice, too many prima donna's and not enough football players in todays NFL

Dak? He was our Walter Payton man of the Year candidate this season. Not that Carson might not have been, too, you know, if he hadn't lost his starting job late in the season and had the rumored issues with his teammates.

Michael Bennett was a Walter Payton man of the year candidate.
 
Seems like he’s a diva.

I’d try to trade him and 3 1sts for Mahomes. And pray the chiefs don’t ask for more.
