I'd like to say this is all Irsay just going straight butt hurt bitch mode and maybe I would if any other team had traded for Wince. But it wasn't and this is Washington we're talking about after all. Which makes me worried every damn thing Irsay is saying about Wince is absolutely true.I mean, he didn't have to say all this. Did Wentz take away Irsay's crack pipe or something?
Irsay: Wentz had issues with leadership
Not only did Wentz not carry the Colts through Jacksonville, he apparently also failed at showing leadership in the clubhouse, which Irsay discovered after speaking to several players.
And there's more. Irsay also mentioned that Wentz wouldn't change his playing style despite head coach Frank Reich and the coaching staff directing him to.
But hey, I am sure Washington will get a different Carson Wentz than the one we saw in Indy and Philly right? They have such a good track record of getting the most out of questionable characters!
Colts owner Jim Irsay calls Carson Wentz era 'a mistake'
Irsay didn't hold back when talking about the Carson Wentz era in Indy, which he said the team 'had to move away from.'sports.yahoo.com
Jimmy G is far better placeholder QB than Wentz. You could draft a QB with Garoppolo and it wouldn't freak him out. Draft one with Wentz and the whole "you're wanted here" thing kinda dissolves.
Yeah, I can definitely see that. JimmyG is definitely a better locker room presence. I think as far as QB play on the field, both Wentz and Garropolo make boneheaded mistakes at bad times when they are asked to come up in big moments so that's kind of a wash. I would say Wentz has a stronger arm and the ability to make big plays better than JimmyG but JimmyG is a little better at the simple plays and game management.
I think Wentz and RG3 were that good to begin with but clearly they weren't the same after injuries. Goff can still be good if you play to his strengths. Unfortunately for him offenses are tending to be more spread and scramble orientated and he really needs a more traditional 6 or 7 man blocking scheme with the RB or TE chip-blocking. Goff has a high ceiling but he also has a really low basement.
Snead could throw the ball all over the yard if given some time. Not a whole bunch of talent in philly in those days. Norm may have won a playoff game actually playing, I'm not sure.
There’s no question that Wentz can make throws Heinicke could never make, and every few possessions having that in your arsenal matters.
There are other owners who could/should be fallen prey to karma. There are also other bad owners. The level to which the Skins have fallen hasn't really seemed to take a toll on Snyder. He just hires people to take the bullets he deserves and keeps on keepin on. Redskins fans on the other hand continue to take hit after hit. And Snyder hasn't learned shit. Even after the Griffin fiasco he had no problem making Haskins his #1 train wreck pick. You think he's learned his lesson in that regard or taken ownership for the blunder? I don't. So who's really been made to suffer time after time during the Snyder Era. Is it Daniel Snyder? He purchased majority ownership of the the team for 750 million in 99 borrowing almost half of that money. He just purchased 81% of the team for 875 million getting a 450 million debt waiver from the NFL that needed approval of 24 of the league's 32 owners. His sister owns 12.5% of the team and his mother the other 6.5% effectively making the Snyder's 100% owners. At present the Commanders are worth 4.2 billion dollars give or take. Snyder just purchased a 192 million dollar yacht a couple years ago. He could literally wipe his ass after taking a shit with 100 dollar bills and it would put nary a dent in his finances. The NFL has been his #1 shield against any efforts to take control of the Commanders away from him. And even the talk of the NFL tiring of his bullshit and taking the team away from him of a few months ago has turned into less than a whimper of late. If this is the results of angering the gods where do I sign up?
Seems like they're not very good at any tactic.
Should have just gone with Washington Generals and embraced their destiny.
