POLL Should the Eagles Keep Foles and Trade Wentz?

[eaglesnut]

All football players get injured. Point is Foles doesn't out himself at risk by scrambling like Wentz does. And Wentz says he won't change his style? Yikes.

Most QBs get hurt more in the pocket.

Exhibit A: Mike Vick got hurt more in the pocket than out of it. Ribs, throwing hand, etc.

Once starting, Foles got injured faster than Wentz did in their respective careers.

Just facts for you.

Will be hard to watch Philly possibly make the same mistake twice by letting Foles go a second time.

Only reason he's a back up is because they let him go once, and Jeff Fisher can't coach up a QB to save his life.

What if he goes to Washington and beats Philly?

Eagles FO holds all the cards on this . They can easily control who they trade him to.
That's if Foles does want to be trade to go start some where else.

That's true. Good point. Could still go to an NFC team like AZ tho.

I would love to see that for him..
but at the same time he really hasn't come out and said " I'm a franchise QB play me or trade me"!
Then there is this whole knee injury for Wentz, Foles is still under contract and most likely starts the season as the starter...

Mike Vick never learned how to operate in the pocket. Was hard to watch.

Also a fact: Wentz blew his knee knees out running. That doesn't concern you?

First I've heard this. Thought he would be traded. Hopefully Wentz doesn't have an Andrew Luck situation going on.

If Philly trades Carson Wentz, they will spend the next decade trying to draft the next, well....Carson Wentz

No. It doesn't.

Most of his runs were great and if he ever gets hurt Doug Pederson will make the next QB play awesome.

So you voted trade Wentz?

Would the Browns give Philly the #1 pick for Wentz today?

Guess depends on how that knee looks. I'd like to know why they passed on him to begin with.

 

[eaglesnut]

So you voted trade Wentz?

No. Wentz dominates whenever he's healthy and develops within the offense into an unstoppable force like the first 13 weeks. And Pederson gets anyone else finishing the job in historically dominate fashion like the last 3 weeks.

The Browns know who the good QB's are....that's why they pass on them all.

 

[eaglesnut]

Would the Browns give Philly the #1 pick for Wentz today?

In isolation, yes. Of course.

In context, they can't because they had the chance already and passed.

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

That's how the debate started. Good argument for this opinion.

Who trades away a Superbowl winning QB?

Cant you ask who trades away a league MVP?

I think most people agree that was Wentz' award if he didnt fall off a cliff the last few weeks

 

[RobBase]

No. Wentz dominates whenever he's healthy and Pederson gets anyone else finishing the job in historically dominate fashion like the last 3 weeks.

So it was in your opinion Pederson and not Foles who deserves most credit. Okay. Maybe. Guess we have to wait for Wentz' next injury to prove that theory.

I suppose it's possible both Wentz and Foles are system QB's. Tho I hadn't thought of that until you mentioned it. Interesting.

I hear ya. Almost MVP vs SB leader and winner. Tough choice. That's why there's a poll.

 

[redseat]

"Doug Pederson is the best coach in the league" should have been one of the choices.

Certainly has the biggest BALLS in the league. That's for sure!

Play hard or don't play at all.
The hungry dog runs faster...

How can they both be system QBs when it wasn't the same system? Think. Pederson is smarter than every other coach. All the good QBs in the league he can dominate with. The longer he gets to work with any single one the most dominate the combination will be.

Read it twice. So you get it. Actually just keep reading it over and over until you've successfully internalized it.
