He's really bad, like shockingly.

Maybe he has the 'yips', like when Chuck Knoblauch couldn't throw to first base.

I have said it since he was drafted that I do not think he's a great quarterback and it has nothing to do with him being on the Eagles.

It started with this horrible mechanics that he had his first year and while he has improved some in that area, I think it's made him less accurate and consistent.

He is not a bad quarterback, just not nearly the "great one" that the media was drooling over the first few years.

I know there were so many Wentz slobberers on this website. Currently, it looks like Dak is the better QB.

Would any of you trade Dak to the Eagles for Wentz and two first round picks? They might take that deal right now.

I'd take that in a second. I'd take two firsts for Dak w/o Wentz, and Wentz will be cheap and may be salvageable.

2021 base salary is $3.9M, with an $11.5M not likely to be earned escalator built in

the lack of an OL Hence the sacks, no wrs to throw to, lack of run game and etc etc lead to him holding the ball too long or not having enough time..

there are reasons to why a QB regresses and this is obvious even as a DC fan , the dude has nothing on offense and so he looks like Dalton now LOL a 33mil Dalton but this was beginning to happen to dak at times in his a career ie 2017, 3-5 start in 2018 we went an got Ac for him, 2019 8-8, 2020 got him Lamb the beginning of this year the INt and Fumbles were up, when you have NO OL and start losing your stars

Take cooper and Lamb off this team and add dak back this season with this OL and im betting dak is struggling.. Goff went through a phase like this as well..Carr at one time was labeled a bust here, doesnt look like a bust now, Tannehill looked like a complete Bust, lifer at backup but an ACFCG now in his quiver and what not..

when you cant blocks and have no one getting open QBs tend to look broken..

hes pressing hard and that when mistakes happen in sports..I know piling on an opponent like the shegals and wentz is part of our DNA and im glad hes struggling but as sports fan i can see he doesnt suk, his team does..
The guy’s problems started with his knee injury and it has only gotten worse due to a terrible line and no talent at the WR position. He has the talent, but no QB could do well in that situation.

I love how a lack of an offensive line is an often-used excuse for Wentz.

But look at the season Dak was having without Tyron Smith, La'el Collins, and Travis Frederick and there's still an army of Cowboys fans that want Trevor Lawrence.

The Eagles are stuck with the worst contract in all of professional sports.

Wentz is the worst starting QB in the league, and they have to pay him over $30 million/year.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer team.

Its only funny until an Eagles fan hucks a battery at you.

The guy is shell shocked at this point. He watches the rush more than he watches his receivers downfield. Conversely, the Eagles have done a really poor job of assembling a good receiving corps. Fulgham has been a nice surprise, and it's too early to make a true assessment of Reagor, but Arcega-Whiteside is a stiff, Greg Ward is replacement level at best, and DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery can never stay healthy. Their WR group is as bad as any in the league.
He is looking a lot like another talented QB that was shell shocked in another era, Jim Everett

If he holds the ball for the big play, that's something that he can easily fix. Just ease off the big play tries. But if he holds the ball too long because he doesn't have the "clock in his head" that the great quarterbacks do, then there's little hope he can improve...
He always tries to make the big play, has since his rookie year. His ability to read the field and pull the trigger is not good at all. Last week's pick six, he had a wr running wide open, instead of throwing to him, he threw late to the flat to the RB and it was picked.

He is also so inaccurate...wrs are constantly trying to adjust for his horrible throws, most are too high.

I had to double check to make sure I was was on a Cowboys fan forum after reading this. This scrub of a QB gets more love than the QB of the Dallas Cowboys by some around here.
