I feel like I'm living in the Twilight Zone, everyone seems to list him as a Top 7 QB. ***?!

Wentz was tough last night. The kid can ball no doubt.

I agree. The way he plays, I dont think he lasts a full year. Too tough and reckless to be smart about things. He gets killed out there.


i think thats the main consensus, "will he last a year"

sure there is always the chance but its easier to bet the field

I'd take Dak over Wentz right now, given their body of work over over three seasons.
When both have performed at extremely high levels, it has been with excellent supporting casts. Wentz in 2017 had a better cast than Dak has had up until MAYBE this year.
We'll see long-term. I think both will be really good for years to come, health permitting.
I do believe Wentz has more physical talent, but Dak has the edge as far as actual results.

Arm talent. But Dak is polishing his craft daily, and has off the charts intangibles.

Look, Dak's the superior QB by every measure. While everyone is waiting for the glass slipper to fall off, his play is bubbling into elite level company.

Everyone keeps laughing, but Dak is actually laying the groundwork for a potential HOF career.

EVerything but the bold is true. The bold is nonsense. Wentz is as likeable a guy as I have seen in the NFL. I like him a lot just can't stand who he plays for. He is a good guy.
Several of his teammates disagree with you.

“Sources describing him as “selfish,” “uncompromising,” “egotistical,” one who plays “favorites” and doesn’t like to be “questioned,” one who needs to “practice what he preaches" and fails “to take accountability.”

Numerous sources confirmed Wentz was once verbally attacked by a highly respected teammate for not being “a team guy.”

What’s funny is I was thinking this on Sunday, his teammates have to hate his attitude. He made a few bad throws and looked like he was getting pissed at receivers. Seems like a guy that doesn’t want to take the blame. I much prefer Daks demeanor at this stage in their careers.

Eli will definitely get in to the HoF... 2 titles, a big market team and the Manning name will make sure of that, he’ll probably even be first ballot which makes it even worse.
As for Wentz, I think he’s got the talent but he doesn’t have the chemistry with his team that Foles had.
If he can shake the injury bug then things might improve, but if he misses games again this season then the murmurs get louder that they should have traded him and kept Foles... and that’ll just make it harder for him.

As overrated as he is

Eli is the most overrated QB in history. Will be the worst player ever inducted into the HOF

Yup. Not even close. Eli Manning is a below 500 QB for his career and has never done anything spectacular except ride the coattails of two all time great playoff defenses

Wentz is a good qb, but he isn’t going to last in the NFL.
Dak is a boss.
