QB Nick Foles praises Jesus after comeback win in first start with Bears since 2020

We do not win the Super Bowl with Wentz.

I know it's fashionable in Philly to trash Wentz.

And in all honesty, I am a Foles guy and thought Wentz should have been benched earlier in 2018/before his vertebrae problem.

But facts are facts. You're right - Jake Elliot doesn't have a chance to hit his 61-yarder without Wentz faking out the Giants, and so on. Wentz proved himself in 2019 and we may have beaten Seattle if Clowney didn't cheap-shot/concuss Wentz.

And for all of the Front Office talk about Wentz - who clearly had confidence, control, attitude and other issues- being "our guy," they draft a QB in the 2020 first round!?!? Then when Carson is uneven - which he was - they bench him and act like it's all his fault!?!?

If Wentz was broken when he went to the Colts, the Eagles were the prime batterer in that relationship.

I am audibly cheering for Wentz and the Colts. And Howie can take a long walk off a short pier.

Then in Dallas, Bledsoe got injured, and Tony Romo never looked back.

Because he was in the ground most of the time with his brittle bird bones

I meant that if Wentz had been our QB in the Super Bowl, we would have lost.

That may be true. Except for a few years early in his career, Nick played his best when he was stepping in to a crisis situation. He was supremely calm in the playoffs and the Super Bowl. Not just that, but the team rose to the occasion when St Nick was leading the team.

He may be the Tug McGraw of the Eagles.
