WINCE has gradually been diminishing over the years since that mvp type performance of 2017. He's gotten so bad that he's now ranked 31st out of 32 starting QBs in 2020. How bad has he plummeted? Check out this article showcasing his numbers...
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Carson Wentz is in his fifth season since the Browns traded their No. 2 pick in 2016 to the Eagles, and it’s safe to say now that the Browns blew most of the picks they acquired in that trade and the many spinoff trades.
But Wentz, who will face the the Browns Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium, is on such a steep decline this season, the Eagles can’t necessarily claim a huge victory either.
Granted, Wentz went 11-2 in his second season before blowing out his knee and watching Nick Foles win a Super Bowl. That 11-2 record alone might tip the scales in the Eagles’ favor, but Wentz has never been the same since those ACL and LCL injuries and then suffering a season-ending fractured back in 2018. He’s gone 17-18-1 since 2017, including 3-5-1 this season.
He’s having such a bad year that folks wonder if he’s close to done in Philly. He’s 31st with a 73.1 rating, has thrown a league-leading 12 interceptions, and his completion percentage of 58.2 is last in the NFL. He’s also lost four fumbles and has been sacked a league-high 35 times.
In June of 2019, the Eagles signed him to a four-year extension worth an average of $32 million, but they have a potential out after next season with $24.55 million in dead cap money.
Some of Wentz’ 2020 woes can be attributed to injuries to running back Miles Sanders, who returned last week, tight end Zach Ertz, who’s still out, and several offensive linemen. In fact, he’s had eight line combos in nine games.
But others just wonder if he’s not all that, and the Browns were in that camp when they traded that No. 2 pick. Later that year, Browns Chief Strategy Officer Paul DePodesta revealed that the Browns didn’t believe he’d be a top 20 quarterback in the NFL, and that’s certainly proving to be true this year.

It's sad to think of how many supposed Cowboys fans would prop up Carson WINCE and prefer him over our very own stud in Dak Prescott over the last several years. Well, time has shown they were wrong. Who is willing to own up to their mistake?
As for me, I'm sticking to our continually yearly improving and bonafied stud QB in Dak, injury included.
What say you?
