News: ESPN: Eagles' Wentz says stress fracture is still healing

[gimmesix]

Them giving up on Foles is the best thing that could have happened in the NFC. I don't see a guy who 'brings it' in the 4th quarter of important games. He's missed playoffs with a pretty solid roster two out of three seasons.

Like Dak, though, he's not a finished product yet. Coming from North Dakota State, in some ways his learning curve should be even greater than Dak's. Now, I don't wish injury upon any player, but since he plays for Philly, I hope that he is unable to improve his game (at least while he's there), but I don't think we can count him out yet.

If he can't get it done this year, though, I think the Eagles will be forced to consider what to do next, and probably regret letting Foles go.

Well, The team we have now would probably make the super bowl with Tony Romo at the helm, so I’ll take it

He's a vastly overrated injury prone diva........they should extend him now while they're still under the dilusion that he's an "elite" franchise QB........his career has started like Romo's ended.

Back injuries never get better and while medicine has come a long way it will never go back to feeling the way it does. Pity, was hoping to see Dak vs. Wentz for many years.

I was just reading your signature. Want to know something crazier than zero that went on to lead NFL offenses? Check this out, Since the Cowboys hired Garrett:

Eagles 2010 QB coach: James Urban, currently QB coach in Baltimore

Eagles 2011-2012 QB coach: Doug Pederson, went on to become OC in KC for 2013-2015, then Philadelphia HC from 2016-present

Eagles 2010-2012 OC: Marty Morningweg, then was NYJ offensive coordinator in 2013-2014, then Baltimore Ravens OC 2017-2018

Eagles 2013 QB coach Bill Lazor: Miami OC 2014-2015, Cincinnati OC 2017-2018

Eagles 2014 QB coach Bill Musgrave: Oakland Raiders OC 2014-2015, Denver Broncos OC 2018

Eagles 2015 QB coach Ryan Day: Ohio State OC 2017-2018, currently OSU head coach, which is nearly as impressive as NFL head coach

Eagles 2013-2015 OC Pat Shurmur: Vikings OC 2017, New York Giants HC 2018-present

Eagles QB coach 2016-2017 John Defilippo: Minnesota Vikings OC 2018, Jacksonville Jaguars OC presently

Eagles 2016-2017 OC Frank Reich: Indianapolis Colts HC 2018-present



Still holding out hope with James Urban, especially with the work he’s done with Lamar Jackson he might get a shot. That would complete the clean sweep.

Nice work. Yah Garrett is a joke. And it’s not like our offense hasn’t had some good years. Still no one is impressed.

Not only is he a china doll, but he also appears to heal very slowly...heck when Romo broke his back he was ready to get back in the game.

 

[lukin2006]

After those losers cheered the playmaker on the turf, maybe this is Karma...I doubt he will last 10 years in that league...and he'd be out of the league if he played when Aikman played...

 

[Sydla]

Eagles fans are acting like this isn't that big of a deal but frankly, if this were our QB, I'd be nervous as hell.

Hey Lion.

So if he gets hurt again, say he has the same injury issue with his back....does Philly start looking for another starting qb? The Cowboys were in the same scenario with Tony and stumbled onto Dak.

Just curious what an Eagles fan has to say. If Wentz gets injured again, the FO has to start to ask themselves, "is it time to start looking"?

Nate Sudfeld is the reason we let Foles walk. Pederson loves him, and in real games he was 20-25 for us, he can sling it.

Money is the reason you "let Foles walk".

But it's Sudfeld now? OK, somebody is obviously drinking Kool-Aid by the gallon.

Oh yeah, i forgot we're in cap hell. Memory comes and goes sometimes

I honestly think that all three teams - Rams, Eagles, and Cowboys - are facing crossroad decisions on their quarterbacks, and whether or not to lock in for big-money long-term.

For the Eagles in particular, Wentz, and by extension the Eagles franchise are facing tremendous pressure, arguably more than any other quarterback in the league. The guy that won you the Super Bowl and saved your 2018 season is now gone. And now you're hoping that Wentz can stay healthy and win over a split locker room.

If Wentz gets hurt again or struggles, I have to wonder if Philadelphia extends him or looks for alternatives.

Where was that said? Your diversion attempt is woefully transparent.

Try harder.

 

[John813]

That's too bad. I dislike the eagles and all, but that man can't catch a break injury wise.
It would be one thing if the guys was unlikable like Vick or Leaf.

Wince is unlikable. Ask half of that iggles locker room.

 

[Doomsday101]

It will be interesting to see how Wentz fairs. I think he has more talent than Foles but his team did not seem to respond to him as well as they did with Foles. In starts that Wentz made his team went 5-6 under Foles they went 4-1 in the regular season.

 

[HungryLion]

Ouch, just last year we embarrassed you by taking godert, lmao I'm gonna drop the mic here

Connor Williams was higher on the cowboys draft board and was going to be the pick regardless.
