I'd sit Wentz if Lane Johnson is officially suspended.  The offensive line is average at best as it is.  The last thing I'd do is risk putting my franchise quarterback in the line of fire without a running game to rely on or receivers to throw to without at minimum a good offensive line to keep him upright.

Daniel couldn't be any more disposable if he tried.  If he gets killed out there, so be it.   Not so much with Wentz.

so you want to bench your qb because 1 tackle is out (lane is playing at least in week 1), thereby wasting essentially his 1st season in the league?

hes 23. not 22. not 21. hes a football player. he needs to play football.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

I'd sit Wentz if his risk of injury is heightened by Johnson's absence.  I know he's eventually going to have to take the training wheels off but I'd actually rather him watch and learn for a year.  I know that's not probably going to happen but it's what I would prefer.

yup...most of your improvment in year one comes off the field anyway....20 starts at north dakota is not going to have you ready to play in the nfl...he needs to first earn how to be a pro then spend mad time in the film room studying how the pro game works....it will make the year way less interesting as theres literally nothing a chase daniels led eagles team give you to look at it...so the selfish thing is to want wentz thrown to the wolves...but long term its not the right move

the biggest thing for wentz is to grow accustomed to the speed, size and talent of the nfl....he cant do that watching film or standing on the sidelines watching chase daniel suck

i dont get this mentality of keeping him in bubble wrap. aaron rodgers was kept in bubble wrap for 3 years and struggled his 1st year in the league. wentz is already 23. just get on with it. most qbs struggle early. im guessing that will be especially so for someone coming from such a low level of college ball. but lets see how he plays. hes not a prima donna loose cannon. hes a jesus freak all american honkey from north dakota. throwing for 150 yards and 3 picks isnt going to break him because at the end of the day jesus still loves him.

Speaking of talent, they have none on offense unless DGB turns out to be the steal of the century. If he isn't, then all a rookie QB is going to learn is how to check down and hand the ball off on a 3rd and 10 draw.

The man. The myth. The legend.

QB Eagles

If Johnson gets suspended as seems likely, Wentz will also learn what it feels like to have the same ribs rebroken.
