The boom plays are great for highlights, he'll bring back some big plays to the offense, but the bust plays he seems to have are game killers.
Remember this is a 50% passer minus screen plays. 30th in the NFL.
I stand by that Ron needs to draft a back up plan and add quality depth to the position via the draft.
If it works out w/ Wentz then great, you still have TH and a drafted player that's in your system. If it doesn't work you have a guy who may be your starter in 2023 already in place w/ a year of being a back-up.

You're absolutely right. And there's no arguing the concerns about his on field performances and intangible issues are legit. But I still think it's quite telling about the overblowing of this whole narrative, that even this supposedly cut inducing awful final game didn't actually look nearly as bad as advertised.
I'll probably go through a couple more games before September, but that's now 2 games, including the supposedly worst one, where I didn't see anything that
really concerned me.
We'll see...
In any case, I wouldn't be opposed to drafting a QB is there's somebody they really like though.
