@@SheGotSports ok
Nick foles had 90 yard game winning drive vs the best defense in nfl bears at soldier field and then the next game would have beaten saints if not for Jeffries drop
Stop that interception in the super bowl was a perfect throw to jeffries who dropped it
Hey, not to be mean or anything, but how did you go from looking like that in your old video to looking how you look now? I'm just wondering?
@@youngmasai1347 the old video in this video from after the eagles game?
Nick Foles playoff run was nothing short of legendary, came off the bench and brought Philly a chip. On another note, your reaction to the giants loss has been me over the last 5 years after every game the bills have lost in heart shattering fashion. Which are endless
In 5 seasons Carson Wentz has 0 playoff wins 52 fumbles. He is 7-20 vs teams over 500. He has no heart no desire to win. His teammates hate him. He makes everyone around him worse. He started 5-6 in 4 of his first 5 seasons. Eagles are 24-6 in their last 30 games with Foles..
Foles run was legendary. It was like Doug Williams performance in Super Bowl XXII in 1988.
Foles is a fringe starter. You wouldn’t want him to be your starting QB, but you would want him to be your backup QB.
@@AlexRosner-v8t You've been making fake profiles on YT & Twitter since 2018 with made up stats. Wentz is 18/31 vs .500 teams, only like 3 QBs have a winning record vs .500 teams, Brady is one of them. Focus on your poor grammar then on logically sound syllogisms for argumentation. Right now you're engaging in Fractal Wrongness.
So he’s 13 games under 500 vs winning teams just like I said doofus
If it wasn't for Wentz philadelphia probably never made the play offs .his down fall was injury to his knee that took him out the last few games before the superbowl
He picked up $128,000,000.00 in the process of destroying his career. He'll survive.
bro is indeed set for life
Pocket watcher 😭😭
Probably got another 5 seasons of getting paid as a backup. Got the easiest backup spot now too, he’s Mahomes backup in Kansas City. He’ll only see mop up duty in blowouts.
Plus his career isn't actually over. He's a pretty well paid backup in Kansas City. He's still making 20 times what the average American makes.
Amazing point man. Totally agree with you. No surprise that at the combine Wentz scored double the avg score on the cognitive test loll. If destroying one's career means u end up with all that loot and ontop being on the sidelines for most of the time, then sign me up loll
Actually, you were off a bit on some of it. Not only did Wentz refuse to work with Pederson, but the Birds fired Pederson to placate Wentz. Then even after that, Wentz demanded a trade from the Birds. It was at that point he lost any fans that still had any love for him. He just handled things so poorly.
Pederson publicly stabbed Carson in the back, several months after Howie stabbed him in the back. Once he was benched, his time in Philly was over...there was no coming back when it is obvious your front office doesn't want you. Doug being fired had nothing to do with Carson, it had to do with Doug wanting more power in the organization and Laurie/Howie wanting it all to themselves. Doug basically fired himself because they wouldn't give him any say in the organization despite earning more than they wanted him to have.
Basically, Howie tanked a Superbowl roster and the easy targets for him to save his job were Carson and Doug and he whacked them both.
You're just a typical, gullible Philly fan.
exactly, I defended him and was still a believer, but when he demand a trade, he lost me.
@@travelingfool9096 why would he want to stay in Philly? If you were one of the best people on the planet at a skill that is valued and your general manager kept fucking up and blaming you for his failures, would you want to stay and work for him? How about if your other supervisor publicly did not have your back just months later? Would you still want to work there???
How many times did Philly management need to stab him in the back and not support him before he needed a fresh start.
Unfortunately for him, the owner of his fresh start was a fucking lunatic.
@@AK-ll2dhyou don’t need to be an insulting douchebag at the end of your rant. Sometimes it’s OK to have a conversation with someone and actually have dialogue, even if you disagree. The need to be insulting - for literally no reason - speaks to your character, not mine.
@@Mike-or6tw you literally lied about how it went down because telling a lie makes you feel better than telling the truth, and you want to cry about my character??? If being called gullible on the Internet has triggered you, then it says a lot more about you than it does me.
I can probably tell you exactly what you think about most of the key Eagles players and management because you have already demonstrated that you don't think for yourself.
But why lie about Carson and Pederson and then lie again about why Doug was fired???
The moral of this story is, When someone shows you who they are over and over again..... Believe Them!
No
I didnt even know about the shrine. That, the SB victory and the statue did it for him.
Surprised you didn't know.
Do research max kellerman was always right when he would constantly argue with it lovely that wentz is poison
Foles & Pederson beat Brady & Belichick in the Super Bowl.
What, the statue? HAH, Mate, I'm a fucking Aussie and even I know about the statue. BDN the Philly Goat: "You wan't Philly Philly? Yeah, let's run it."
@@alittlecreepywhenyou No, the shrine lol
In Philly whenever he talked you could tell to him the rest of the team were his servants. He also only cared about religion and hunting. They were the only two thoughts in his head.
Ironically Wentz's head was his biggest enemy for sure. He either overthought or obsessed over every bump in the road. He was great at mastering the playbook and interpreting coverages but when something went wrong he couldn't just use it for fuel & move forward. In a high stakes, what-have you-done-for-me-lately business like NFL, that kind of obsessing will turn you into a basket case.
A. Luck is a great contrast - he was a super smart QB, too, but was also gifted at keeping his head straight when things are went wrong. Night & day....
Andrew Luck had the joy pummeled out of him. His OL was weaker than a sponge but he still held on.
@@user-co1yr5fw8c how many superbowls did Andrew Luck win?
The same as Wentz
@@thebeasters. Wait, u mean u think Wentz and Luck were sort of the same?
Luck was light years more talented than Wentz.
Two things that teams should NEVER base their draft upon:
1. Combine
2. Wonderlic
No kidding, right?! Boggles my mind.
Former Pats QB scored a perfect Wonderlich and couldn't make the NFL
Having post 2017 Wentz as your QB was an unbelievable ride. He was capable of the best plays you've ever seen, just to follow them up with the most boneheaded mistake no rookie would ever make. When Howie drafted Hurts I was beyond confused back then, but his demeanor being the polar opposite to Wentz' meant that the entire team wanted him to start immediately. Especially the O-Line, who hated Wentz for taking tons of sacks for no good reason, loved Hurts from day 1 and were pushing for him hard. I'm happy every day that Howie drafted Hurts, who by now can do everything Wentz ever could but better.
In the end Wentz has (or maybe had) everything to be one of the best QBs in the league, but his ego ruined everything.
So true! Thanks for watching!
Hard core Pats fan here. We lost to Nick Foles. That was your guy.
It ain't embarrassing for you to show emotions, Trust me that game also made me feel the same after seeing what rookie Wentz did.
I'm not a NDSU, Eagles, Colts, Redskins, or Wentz fan. I still think the man still got what it takes to be a starter for some teams. He's more mature and came back from the dead. KC made a great decision in signing him.
Lol thanks! And thanks for taking the time to watch!!!
That 2021 game against the Jaguars was one of the funniest moments in NFL history, and you can't convince me otherwise
That was the most scripted game I seen. The Chargers and Colts layer down the final few weeks for Roethlisberger to make the playoffs in his final season. Reminds me of Peyton Manning winning the Super Bowl in his final season with all that plot armor
What was funny about it? I never seen it
Mahomes gets hurt, Wentz wins super bowl with Chiefs? Circle of life?
Please no. If anything they’ll lose because his negative aura is on the roster
yeah but… Andy Reid and the entire Chiefs team culture won’t succumb to the negativism of one player. Probably, right?
He was firing lasers early today.
How?? Carson got hurt and brady got the mvp by proxy and LOST the super bowl lmao
Nah bro
That’s pretty thorough lol, “hero ball” was absolutely his downfall. One little tidbit I think you missed - the colts gm was on record pleading with wentz to “just take the layups”. He was doing this early in his career, idk why he abandoned it. Such a shame
yoooo!!! these are awesome, your ability to tell a story keeps getting better!
Keep up the great work! these are a treat for us sports fans. no silly bs added..
Thank you soooo much!! That really means a ton!!! Just trying to get better and better at telling a great story!
@SheGotSports You never disappoint for real you truly are very cute smart intelligent young lady Lauren I'm ready for the 2024 NFL Season! I know that you are too!😎
@@SheGotSports I came to the comments specifically to hype the storytelling in this video. This was some great journalism.
@@jameswheeler5260even when she said Wentz won a national championship with North Dakota state?
This is an incredible long spanning retrospective, but you missed something, which I as an Eagles fan will not forget. Before they traded Wentz, the Eagles fired Doug Pederson, to seemingly try to placate Wentz and keep him here. Even when they were willing to destroy their coaching staff for the guy, he opted to move on.
Later on Doug was seen in camp with Wentz after that as if Doug was never the issue. It was reported the issue was the front office. Because in 2020 the Eagles drafted another QB in the second round even though their need was WR pretty bad. And even drafting a WR the round before they did a very bad selection at it which seen most of the NFL laughing at them. Reports were Wentz felt they were not doing enough to support him with weapons. It was just 2019 when Wentz set the Eagles passing season record with no true number 1 WR. That year most of the WRs were injured and Ertz was the leading catcher! Then in 2020 injuries killed them on offense leaving only Wentz and Kelce healthy all of that year. But in the end the team seemed to blame Wentz. With time by a good Oline and scrub WRs we seen Wentz set a passing yards record for a season. Now the team with no healthy Oline nor WRs wants to give all the blame to Wentz which was not fair. Any decent QB would want out. But Colts were no better. There Oline in 2021 ranked 3rd last in pass protection. The commanders were just as bad ranking bottom in pass protection as well. The only reason Wentz backup did better in games is because he scrambled to make plays happen but coaches were trying to stop Wentz from doing that since he was injured a lot early in his career.
Came here to post this too.
The way they treated Doug was terrible, just terrible.
Yeah they should have never got rid of Doug. I remember how confused I was when they got rid of him
That always bothered me. We did bounce back and almost win another Superbowl though last year was awful
We can talk about injuries, but Carson Wentz just didn't have the mental fortitude to be an NFL QB. He never found a positive way to handle adversity and seemed to be a case of small town kid who let big time success get to his brain to the point that he went out doing it "his way"
You’re right he’s not mentally strong
He got himself hurt each time with stupid runs.
He has no desire to win and tries to lose on purpose he’s evil
he was a coddled narcissist who got a reality check
@@BostonBori92 Boston, what NFL team did you play for? Oh, that's right, you don't have the mental fortitude to play in the NFL. Stay in mommy's basement where it's safe.
If there is anyone in this world that can turn him around it is Andy Reid. Sitting behind Mahomes, who is known to be an amazing mentor is the highest honor in the NFL today. Carson didn’t look horrible yesterday and Andy has the best shot at wrangling and ensuring his head is straight.
Yall forget Carson beat SF in sf last year while on the Rams
Yes, for sure if Andy Reid would have been able to work with Carson Wentz since he was a rookie. It's way too little, way too late to salvage Wentz now and he is only on a 1-year deal with the Chiefs as a backup.
@@biozio186Josh Dobbs beat SF. and?
I don't disagree, but I just don't see Wentz ever being good again. Serviceable? Maybe, but not good, and certainly not great ... I just don't think he's that good. Once DCs got tape on him he was toast, but it's what's between his ears that's the biggest issues. He's as sensitive as they come, and if he didn't have success in Indy, I don't see him having it anywhere.
I do agree that Reid gives him the best chance though, and I hope he proves me wrong.
Alex Smith mentored Mahomes. Mahomes has acknowledged this.
“ Anonymous players report on Wentz For lack of responsibility” the irony.
I think 95% of the time the whole "anonymous player or source" is all bs just made up by the sports media to stir the pot. People act like news isn't about actual news anymore and just drama and bs.
hahahahahahaha
yep
And I never trust those. So guys talk shit or reporters make stuff up.
lol
Jadeveon Clowney's helmet destroyed Carson Wentz's career.
Nah webtz career was over the second it started terrible character guy
Nah Wentz was overrated coming out college, had a great '17 season with the best roster in football, otherwise, he was and is just an average to below avg qb
Clooney speared Foles in the Texans game in 2018 during the Eagles 4th quarter comeback. Foles got up, led the Eagles to second of 4 straight wins (Rams, Texans, Washington, Chicago). If Brandon Brooks doesn't get hurt, they probably beat NO as well. Foles just led better and made better decisions.
THANK YOU AND WASNT FLAGGED
Carson didn’t have the mental fortitude to be an NFL QB and he couldn’t put his ego aside. Both Nick Foles and then Jalen Hurts replaced him and both went to the Super Bowl with the Eagles.
When they started Hurts his rookie year, it was obvious to even casual fans like myself that Hurts has the mental discipline to handle the role. He always seem laser focused, as well as always having an even keel with his emotions. I was not shocked that he was in a super bowl a couple years later. I wouldn't be shocked if the Eagles got back this year due to Hurts.
He found the right agent tho
Dude had a serious Jeff George vibe. I remember a quote from one of George's O linemen who said he never got Jeff sacked on purpose, but when he did get beaten and gave up a sack, it didn't bother him nearly as much as it did when he was blocking for QBs he didn't despise.
Clear example of a cancer for any team. There's no "I" in team and he's clearly a example of this.
I’ll always be grateful for him as his MVP season and contributions in 2017 gave Nick Foles the opportunity to lead us to our very first Super Bowl. That makes him one of the greats imo.
Us lolol
@@jarlwhiterun7478 Without fans, all these NFL players would be flipping burgers.
"Our very first Superbowl". How embarrassing. A team in the NFC East with the Giants, Redskins and Cowboys dominance finally gets one Superbowl win. The Eagles are an embarrassment to the NFC EAST.
@@alexs1007still just a fan though. These fans think they are a part of the team when the players dgaf they even exist lol
I’m also a diehard Giants fan and was heartbroken when Jake Elliot drilled that 61 yard field goal 😭
IT WAS BRUTAL 😭😭
I was outside the stadium for the 61. It was amazing!!
@@Mercules86 Eagles have too many miracle wins against the Giants 😭
@@frankiefresh69 Who was the kicker that wasn't supposed to kick to DeSean? That will forever be my favorite miracle.
@@Mercules86 it was Matt Dodge. He rightfully got cut after that season. As much as that play ripped my heart out, I loved D Jax
Surprisingly this guy still has a job as a backup
😅
He was really good injury destroyed his game.
@@emilionarvaez1415 Not true his inability to adapt to not playing hero ball once his team got healthy was his actual downfall...He had that run of carrying the Eagles when they had major injuries on the O then once those guys came back Carson couldn't stop playing aggressive he was scrambling alot and forcing the ball trying to make big home run plays instead of just moving the chains
He's a bum!! Stick to hunting, cuz his playing days r over!!!
In 5 seasons Carson Wentz has 0 playoff wins 52 fumbles. He is 7-20 vs teams over 500. He has no heart no desire to win. His teammates hate him. He makes everyone around him worse. He started 5-6 in 4 of his first 5 seasons. Eagles are 24-6 in their last 30 games with Foles.
Nick Foles winning that Super Bowl completely screwed up Carson's head, he was determined to prove that he was better and that HE could win a game and a championship and from then he's been chasing that narrative
Real Talk
He was BALLING OUT
Then that happened and his missed out on an MVP of The League and A SUPERBowl W
& likely MVP there as well
That messed Him up for sure
& He’s the type that confidence is everything
When He was The Man & His Team & Teammates love him n hyped him up He was on top of the world and playing like it
Then backup BDN came in and did everything he felt he was supposed to do
Wentz was on His way to an MVP of The League in His 2nd season
Ish is wild how much that all changed everything
He’s definitely in the best place to get His Game Back though
Backing up there is where He needs to be
He can learn more and get His confidence back up as a backup 😉
N if he gets in there He’ll be put in a great position again like His 2nd season
It will be his best team since then to throw to & play ball with
When the media has a narrative on you, it's tedious to contextualize everything. Carson is still my favorite player (Eagles fan for 22 years), because without him, Foles would never have the chance to play in SB. It took both of them to win that year.
The people who want to discredit Wentz as a significant contributor are dishonest. In that case Marc-Andre Fleury in NHL should give back 2 of his 3 rings since he didnt play in Stanley Cup final, Murray was the goalie for both wins. Yet he's considered a 3 time Stanley Cup winner. It's a team game! Now if Wentz was like Nate Sudfeld and didnt play basically, it would be a different story. But Wentz was arguably the best player in the NFL that year and the main reason they had BYE and homefield advantage. Now that alone doesnt guarantee a SB but what it does do, is put them in best position to win SB.
Wentz never really had NFL playoff experience, and Foles never finished a full season in his career. Foles also went 10 quarters without a TD that SB year, had worst QBR in NFL then arguably played best back to back playoff games ever. Pats defense got shredded with Foles who was a stationary QB. Wentz was a dual threat that year, before his injury he was HIM.
I think the pressure of trying to win SB all on his own after that, and the Clowney dirty hit put too much pressure and he didn't have the mental fortitude to overcome it. Whatever one thinks of his personality, fans need to be grateful for his contributions to the SB year as he was the catalyst that put them in the best position to win! The shrine for Foles was also there because everyone knew that Foles needed more confidence especially the way reg season ended, and his Falcons game was awful. Foles was never really consistent (Apart from 2013 when he had Prime Djack and prime Shady). He needed all the help he could and the shrine made him believe that his teammates believed in him. I think that helped his confidence. I love Foles and I am grateful for both Wentz and Foles that year. Without one of them, we dont win. I still believe pre-torn ACL he would have shredded Pats defense, but we will never know. What we do know is that we won Superbowl with both of their contributions.
There's a reason why Eagles became underdogs after Wentz went down.
In 2017 Wentz had:
#1 QBR in NFL
#3 EPA
#1 PPG with him at helm
#1 3rd/4th down conversion
#1 tight window throw
23-0 in RZ (Currently in 2024 has one of the best RZ TD/INT ratio in NFL history 110 TD 6 INT).
33 TDs in 13 games
11-2 record
Pro Bowl
All pro
Won 2017 NFL POTY (Bert Bell) award as not only the best QB but the best player.
I wrote an article with contextualized advanced analytics during his Eagles tenure: medium.com/@justintime25/the-case-for-carson-d339e2614c04
One for Colts in 2021: medium.com/@justintime25/carson-the-colt-1d06459fb8e2
Crazy is (I love Hurts btw) Carson still holds the Eagles passing records and his best receivers were Jeffery and Agholor.
Most TD passes (2017)
Most yards (2019)
Best comp% (2018)
Scored a TD pass in all 16 games in 2019 (1st Eagles QB to ever do it and 3rd QB in history to ever do it).
Whilst Hurts has had the most stacked team of any Eagles QB. All Pro receivers etc.
Wentz really just had 2 bad seasons since 2016. His last year with Eagles in 2020 (Where team was also decimated with injuries/lack of talent) and in 2022 with Washington.
He had a great game with Rams vs 49ers (3 TDs, converted 2 4th downs) both teams didnt play whole roster and some top players for both teams played like half the game.
But mentally had he folded, his career would be over. He played like his career was on the line and it was.
They needed to win so that Stafford could play against his former team the Lions.
Chiefs also got Wentz to do QB sneaks because they dont want to risk Mahomes getting hurt again doing it.
Wentz since 2016 has had the most successful rate in QB sneaks until the Eagles "Tush push" came along.
I really want KC to reach SB and Carson to have a QB sneak TD! I think it will be very emotional for him and a good comeback/feel good story.
One thing we can never question about Carson, is that he put everything on the line body wise. He plays hard, one of the toughest players physically. I think anyone's mental game (Apart from Brady, Mahomes and few others) would have trouble overcoming the injuries he's had, pressure in Philly, seeing another QB win the SB while you did the heavy lifting to get them there. I know I wouldn't be able to.
I was nodding my head in agreement until the end. Part of being a professional player is that you need the mental fortitude for it to not bother you. If it does, you aren't one of the best.
Thus, if it did. Wentz is an average pro QB that had the same flash in the pan string of games, much like Foles.
@@reubensandwich9249 This is why he's not one of the best (like HOF players). Simply that he was underrated and over-hated by media/fans. He has his flaws and that Clowney hit where he couldn't recognize his wife made him panic when pocket collapses.
Even after his torn ACL, he still played well in 2018 and 2019. 2021 was a good bounce back from 2020. 2022 was bad. Rams game he played well considering he had one game to save his career which is prob why he signed for slightly more $ with the Chiefs.
Advanced analytics show he's better than what people make him out to be. But he'll never be an all time great. (Pre-torn ACL who knows, but that is long gone).
Overall Wentz is better than Foles but I can see your point.
Yup exactly. I don't get the hate on Wentz. He was sabotaged his career after he helped win the Super Bowl. Howie drafted junk for receivers, and then drafted a QB instead of more help. Then Irsay was always high and didn't give him the help. I don't need to say more about Snyder.
Despite it all, he remained positive and strong. Only reason he's still here is how mentally strong he is.
Them winning the Super Bowl with Foles was one thing, but building that statue and shrine and treating Wentz like chopped liver really messed with his mental
Yeah that made it seem like he was a bum & they was carrying him
The shrine was to give Foles confidence as nobody believed in him since he didnt play well before Vikings game.
The statue was a gift from Bud Light.
But I agree, mentally I wouldn't be able to overcome the scenario Wentz had to go through. He did the heavy lifting and Foles had all the credit. It took both of them to win that year.
Mirin the shrine was built in 2018 after the Super Bowl doofus
Wrong the shrine was in middle of 2018 after foles saved their season
Lame to build the statue 🤦♂️.
Another great analysis - also goes to show that stats are often overblown - take his one year in Indy. 27-7 TD-INT and at times it looked like Wentz had never seen the game played before.
Was at the game they played the Titans in Indy and told some colts fans behind me Wentz would mess up game tied almost in their end zone,next play he tries to throw it with his left hand after being pressured for a pick 6… couldn’t make this up 😂
@bennybats614 was that Jacksonville?
Nick Foles is one of two Super Bowl MVPs from Westlake HS in Austin Texas!
Carson was so talented. He was as big Cam Newton and threw 40+ yd bombs, but he was never the same after tearing his ACL. When he first started he carried our team, then he sandbagged us after our receivers kept getting hurt and we were playing with practice squad heros. Sad to see him fall from grace
What are you talking about zack ertz Dallas goeddart Jason kelce lane Johnson miles sanders none of those guys are practice squad
The eagles were 12-1 with 5 playoff wins without Carson wentz from 20-17-2018 at no point did he ever carry them
@@AlexRosner-v8t injuries bro. yeah Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson were healthy but they’re legends, and they don’t play receiver. you can listen to kelce talk about how good Carson was during his interviews btw
@@AlexRosner-v8t and the eagles were 12-1 WITH Carson, not without. he carried
Carson is a textbook illustration of the old adage that an unbounded strength is a weakness. Smart, but didn't know when (or how) to listen, and tried to play hero ball when he needed to check down and move to the next play. He is also outspoken about his faith in a way that offputs his team mates.

Stop simping. She's not going to peg you. She didn't even respond to your comment. 😂
Wentz grew up in Bismarck, North Dakota, played for NDSU in Fargo, North Dakota.
His entire life he was the big fish in a little pond and was treated accordingly. Making it to the NFL makes him an elite athlete, but think of the competition he faced growing up in North Dakota. How easy it was for him to dominate through sheer talent because he really had very few peers. How much adversity did he ever face competing against kids in high school who would be mediocre DII players? At NDSU he played against teams that were lucky to have a single NFL draft pick on their rosters.
Growing up with that obviously gave him an inflated sense of entitlement. Because he never developed a sense of humility, because he could always win games all by himself, it is no wonder he kept playing hero ball in the NFL.
He has the talent but not the right emotion...humility.
couldn't agree more
Philly is a tough town--if you're not playing hard, or are egotistical, the fans will let you know exactly how they feel about you. Wentz could have turned it around like Alec Bohm, but he didn't.
@@emptyhand777 North Dakota is a bubble in itself. Where normal society corrections don't happen. The classism and pretentiousness that happen there should be studied. Some of the people in and from there are the best you'll ever meet. Problem is there are 100s of pple like Wentz in every place up there...and they all have parents
Wentz always had the extremely arrogant and cocky as Hell NDSU Bison attitude and he never learned to grow up and get past that point.
@@thedustsonThis post is spot on. It’s as if you’ve visited ND for 7 mins and figured it out!! I mean this in all seriousness. And I’ve lived here 51 yrs!!
He never played the same after that intentional head shot which caused a concussion. That can alter spatial perception and accuracy.
I feel like we don't talk about that hit enough. I feel like that's what truly ended his time as a starting QB in the league
Wrong he went 5-6 in 2018 foles took over sabe team and made a playoff run
Rofl at that!Intentional.😂
Dirty hit for sure. Can’t believe it wasn’t even flagged
15:28 That Double Doink run was a run that almost had Philly in the Championship Game against the Rams. It’s that one Jeffrey drop that could have swung the game.
Carson Wentz was so cold before the injury man, i don’t care what anyone says that dude was a beast. Great vid as always Lauren!
He was like off brand Mahomes before Mahomes. And I say that as a compliment lol
In 5 seasons Carson Wentz has 0 playoff wins 52 fumbles. He is 7-20 vs teams over 500. He has no heart no desire to win. His teammates hate him. He makes everyone around him worse. He started 5-6 in 4 of his first 5 seasons. Eagles are 24-6 in their last 30 games with Foles

As a diehard Eagles fan I can say Carson Wentz it's one of the worst QB's I've seen in a long time. I haven't seen a player place so poorly since 1999 when Donovan Mcnabb was drafted. I'm talking about after he got hit by Jadeveon Clowney. That was a dirty hit and that truly ended his career he hasn't been the same ever since and unfortunately his career ended way to soon.
Same here, he was brutal making us lose so many games. He couldn't even play like a good high school QB....
I remember thinking Wentz was going to be a problem for the Giants for a long time. The same game he injured his knee and everything changed
Nick Foles took his opportunity and rightly so. He stepped up, gave Philly a Super Bowl, he deserved his MVP.
The mans body and mind were made of glass
Could have been worse - he could be Jimmy Garoppolo. Course they both cashed in so either way they both got it over me as far as life time income.
Could be worse he could be Sam darnold
The Carson Wentz and Ben Simmons situations should vindicate Philly fans of many accusations they have endured. To anyone who objects and wants to bring up the Santa thing, your daddy wasn’t even alive when that happened.
I honestly think that if Wentz stayed healthy in 2017, he’d probably still be a star QB but the Eagles wouldn’t have beaten the Patriots.
This is such an interesting hypothetical. I wonder what the ripple effect would have been on the rest of the league
Foles literally had 90 yard game winning drive vs best defense in nfl against the bears and was a drop away from beating the saints
@@SheGotSportsthen the patriots probably would've had 7 super bowls easily.
And had Foles started the first 13 games of the season they wouldn’t have been the #1 Seed
Wrong they were 12-1 with foles their previous 13 games
The QB HAS to be "selfish, egotistical and uncompromising"... because he gets ALL the credit for LOSING!!!
Ruined career, not his bank account though…
129,429,340- career earnings…
Just posted similar. It would be safe to headline it as "Wentz is/was his own worst enemy and by doing so left millions on the table".
Yeah lol its crazy
And he's still playing so tekton is speaking. His career is not even over. And he's still making more than 20 times the average American salary so he's quite comfortable and his career is not even over. So really it's not really destroyed.
@@archmage7813Just imagine if Wentz pulled a Jim Plunkett and got one more chance at being a starting quarterback and won a Super Bowl. Stranger things have happened. The talent is there, it’s just a mentality thing. I do feel for him, just imagine having an MVP caliber season, then getting injured for the rest of the year, and your backup not only rallies the troops and wins the Super Bowl but they make a damn statue of your replacement that sits in front of the Eagles stadium, you’d have to be extremely mentally strong to not let that bother you.
@@johnselwitz5362 that is certain only a bizarre situation
Still mad at Ron Rivera for benching Heinicke in favor of Wentz.
Benched a small bum for a big bum 😂
@@butchjohnson3953 that "small bum" would've gotten us to the playoffs if Ron kept playing him.

Love to story’s! Would love if you could do Braxton millers story!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!
I thought he would be a beast in the slot. But he never stayed healthy
Thanks so much for watching! I could look into a miller story, def an interesting story!!
Hard to say a guy who dealt with what Wentz dealt with throughout his career ruined his own career
I never knew about the shrine and statue. I can definitely under how he felt
Thanks for watching!
Carson Wentz was still the main reason the Eagles won the Superbowl. This should not be understated
Wentz is garbage. A real leader supports his teammates no matter what. That's why Foles got the job done and his teammates respect him for it.
As an eagles fan, I was the BIGGEST Wentz apologist. Every excuse I could think of. His back, his knee, no O line, im sorry. It took sooo long to admit… he stinks
As an huge eagles fan. Wentz helped us win that Superbowl a matter of fact he was the reason we got to the playoffs.
facts
Always fun to see a new Lauren video keep up the good work
thanks dan!!!
That playoff game vs the Vikings was one of my favorite games. The Vikings fans were fully expecting to blow the Eagles out. They came into town, talked a lot of smack, dressed up Rocky in their gear. And then they're team got embarrassed. Then they cried for a solid year about how mean Eagles fans were. Some of them said the Eagles should have to forfeit because the Eagles fans are mean.
You are dumb. Vikings fans never think we are going to blow out anybody. Literally never, but especially in the playoffs
Gee! With Lauren feeling that bummed about the Giants loss to the Eagles, if she had been around in the 1970s, two aspects:
1. Giants tickets were easy to get.
2. Their seasons were so abysmal, she may have been tempted to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge.
Even though I am a Chiefs fan, back in the early 70's I enjoyed watching Norm Snead play at QB for the "G" Men.
I've been a Seahawks fan since 79. I KNOW MISERY!!! Playing for an Irsay is Misery. Sons not a Bad a Daddy, but that ain't saying much. The Irsays are Bitter Drunks who take it out on Their Teams.
Pisarchek. Is that Right? Herman Edwards play. O m g that's the Worst Play
N E Patriots, the “Patsies” the 70s were tough ! But , well you know what happened. We stole the Jets coach, and TB 12 on the 6 round, pick 199 !
Loving this channel! Constant great quality videos, keep up the great work!
Go birds 🦅
Lmao, the dogpack404 thumbnail
Bro started a whole new genre of thumbnail
I remember that day we beat the Bears. For a whole week it felt like we had a chance at going back to back. It was euphoric.
0:29 scared me
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I paused it at that point. Omg!
21:20 I still remember that game. As a raider fan when they got a touchdown throwing it into triple coverage I was so mad lol. Glad we won though, that win for us was the first time I watched us have a winning season. I became a fan in 2018 btw, I missed 2016 by a few years.
I’m not busting 🏈 🏈, honestly I’m not. But could I just ask how you can grow up with one team then completely change over to adiffffent team to cheer for?? I’ve been in AN EAGLE 🦅 ONESY literally as I was born. I’m still in that ONESY A LITTLE TIGHTER NOW ADAYS BUT HAHA😂…but genuinely was it a play that u follwed cause you were his boy or?!? Stay Safe.
As a colts fan I'm still ticked off he sold us from not making the playoffs. All we have to do is beat the worst team in the league and win. But no we turn into a laughingstock because of that.
IND lost both sides of the trenches, can't win that way
Wentz is poison and gets the least out of the team guys don’t play for him
@@AlexRosner-v8t lmao stop believing Ratshon's lies my guy
That team sucked you are lucky he had you in position
That same exact roster won the year before wentz doofus
Ass Clowney is the biggest to blame. He carried those Eagles teams in ‘18 and ‘19, dragged them kicking and screaming to the playoffs.
Clowney ended that with one quick shot to the back of the dome. That scrambled his dome completely. His game was completely different. Even when he was gimping around with a healing knee or a broken back, he was still competent.
His demeanor completely changed after it.
Literally that shot changed him. Not just at a level where he was consciously aware of it. He was fundamentally altered at a level that, if possible, only years of mental therapy, can bring back.
Good video! Carson actually forced his way out of Philly. If he stayed with my Eagles, I don't know if we would have seen Hurts grow into our franchise QB.
his camp never asked for a trade. Stop believing Ratshon's lies
@DarkKirby14LP The way I heard it, Wentz wanted out. I heard that from several sources. The Eagles took a huge cap hit. I actually wanted Wentz to stay. I still believed he could carry the team. In the end, it worked out since Hurts has become our franchise QB.
Wentz is a virus
@@Scream358 his camp never requested a trade
Given the lack of help Howie gave him down the line and how everybody treated him like chopped liver, I’d wanna leave too
Shout out Sproles & Foles for being real ones 🫡
Love these videos! Please do the rise and fall of Colin Kaepernick if you can! 👍 thank you
As most pitchers get older (hang with me here) they either change their way of pitching to control rather than blazing fast balls or they get traded or released. Carson didn't adjust.
I watched the vikings commanders game back in 2022, after taylor Heineke threw a pick the camera panned to the commanders sideline, Carson Wentz was sipping on Gatorade and laughing, Taylor Heineke was on the tablet looking at plays with a coach. Told me all I needed to know about Carson.
As an eagles fan Carson really aggravated me, I hate that poor me mentality, but Andy Reid is a great qb coach maybe he can turn him around
Triger Warning.
Bears.
Double Doink.
Completely forgot and caught me off gard 😂😢
I like the video, I like the story telling. I think you could add a lot if you don’t talk with the standard RUclips delivery like it’s WatchMojo
Just seems like he was never the same after that knee injury, you know lauren
He was the same selfish no desire to win nasty looking loser from day 1
for sure
Great video! I remember his 2017 season well. He was great. Its awful how his career went downhill. Similar to RG3 as well. I really enjoyed watching this!
Good video keep up the good work
Thanks!
@@SheGotSports your welcome
The guy's a jerk...and he isn't good enough to act like a jerk...
He gonna get a ring and make 2million on the bench for KC.
So I'd say. He's winning lol
Nice content. Wentz always played like Favre and never changed his style of play. He wouldn't slide after the injury and still doesn't slide while scrambling. It took him years to slide and when he finally did, he got a standing ovation from the crowd lol
I just think Wentz's mind got blown when he got injured and had to watch Nick Foles become a league legend in his stead. Imagine having to come to work every day seeing that dumba** Nick Foles statue in front of the stadium. He put too much pressure on himself.
Foles getting a statue is nasty work
@@BoosterGoldEarth6definitely the fans and the organization killed his confidence he was never he same then you draft hurts that next year didn’t help him
Do you even know where it is?
I'll give you insight because I know where it is. It's at the north entrance to the stadium. For him to see it every day, he'd have to go to turn the other direction on Broad (Novacare complex is on west side, stadium on east), park and walk through closed parking lots, and open a locked gate because you can't see it.
On game day, players enter through the south. So he'd have to enter the concourse where the fans mingle.
And to further illistrate how foolish your comment is. Pederson still has never seen it.
Really cool video glad you showed up in my algorithm but as soon as I realized you sounded like Timmy turner I couldn’t stop hearing it. Kinda made it hype.
The Eagles rushed Wentz back too soon. Let’s face it
Cuz Foles was out there stinkin up the joint, which worsens the argument that they shoulda kept him instead of Wentz after the Super Bowl
What are you talking about Nick foles threw for 350 yards week 2 of the season when webtz Mae back doofus
@@TreWimsicalHuh? They were 1-1 to start the season. How was Foles "stinkin" ANYTHING up?
excellent video I really enjoyed your pace, tone and confidence. Nice job lady
Playing a season with the Chiefs will bring Carson back down to earth. Hopefully. He will witness true talent AND humility with Mahomes, learn what locker room leadership means watching Chris, Patrick and Travis, He will see the work ethic practice mentality in Travis, and hopefully the off field prep work by Mahomes. He will see how all of the players genuinely support one another and are HAPPY for one another, even if it means they personally are out-shown or even cut from the team due to another teammates superior performance. They come everyday to compete and do their best, and when they fall short, the congratulate the other competitors for their superior performance, then go home and work even harder. Every rookie NFL player needs to FIRST attend Andy Reid’s training camp to learn what it takes to be. MMA before he can ever learn to be a player, teammate, and leader.
As a Philly local and Eagles fan, thiis is when I knew we had made a mistake. I think
It was 2018, and there was a gun violence epidemic in Philly. So a group of athletes from all four sports went down to address a group of high school students about gun safety. Great. Good. Fine.
Wentz headed back to the stadium and a reporter tagged along. Now, I don’t know if any other cities had a 4:30 PM news, but Philly did.
So they decide to do a live interviiew - and the first question was an utter softball (something like “How was your off-season?”
Remember, this is the afternoon of the day with the anti-gun violence workshop.
Now, Carson could give any answer he wanted to this reporter. What does he go with? How much he loves guns and hunting. Followed by him pulling out a catalogue to show the reporter all the shotguns he bought his offensive linemen at the end of the season. Fine. Whatever. But then he opens up his locker to show this reporter the two shotguns he had in there that he was “working on.” I
I don’t care that he likes guns, but read the freakiN room, buddy. Perhaps don’t valorize guns during a gun violence epidemic. He didn’t seem to care about anything that didn’t directly affect him, and seemed not to have much concern for the needs of anyone other than him. You can’t lead a team
If you only care about yourself.
Im sorry your a giants fan, as a philly fan the 2017 season was such a great time for us, and finally we won a 🏆...
that rams game changed him for rest of his career.
As a eagles fan if we kept foles we couldve got 2 or 3 rings.
But wentz and howie went another way... wentz was great but spoiled.
What a great video! As an Eagles fan Carson will always have a special place in my heart. He didnt bring home the Lombardi but we dont get there with out him. The injuries and Foles success were the big thing cause Philly loooooved Foles. Even before the Superbowl. Bradford was only on the team cause we trade Foles away and fans hated that. So it really messed with Carson's head when people wanted Foles to be the starter over him. Then the Eagles didnt put a team around him and that hurt his play. But his 2019 season was really more impressive, with the WR core he had, then his 2017 almost MVP season.
Wentz is Not "ruined". Reid, the best coach in the NFL, wanted Wentz to backup Mahomes.
Can you name the Eagles wide receivers in 2019/2020? They were nobodies. Greg Ward is the only Eagles wide/slot receiver in the NFL from 2019/2020. The Eagles draft Hurts instead of another receiver. Now, the Eagles have elite receivers and Hurts (the running back) can't throw more than 23TD passes in a season. Wentz would have 50+ TD passes if he had AJ Brown and Davinta Smith as wide receivers.
This girl needs to do a podcast on the historic meltdown by Hurts and the Eagles last year. The Eagles are a dysfunctional organization. Philly media and fans contribute to the constant turmoil between players.
Hence Hurts and AJ Brown.
How many playoff wins did Wentz have? Why are you on his 🥜 ? He never showed up when the Eagles needed him most.
@@jolikudo you must be a degenerate Eagles fan. Wentz was injured both times. 2017 and 2019.
@@jolikudo Wentz was injured both times when he took the Eagles to the playoffs. I hope that doesn't offend you, little buddy.
Only 3 quarterbacks have ever been able to break 50, Wentz isn’t in the same universe as those guys. Even if had Jerry Rice and Randy Moss as his receivers he isn’t breaking 40 touchdowns in a year
First time I watched one of your videos today. Now I’m 4 videos in. I usually feel girls just pretend to know about sports to look nice. But you have extremely good insights and know how to edit your videos perfectly. I enjoy them A LOT. Keep up the good work. You’ve become one of my favorite sports analysts in one day
Nothing more cowardly than going to the media anonymously.
I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Japanese-American and male. These show people where, when, and HOW I grew up (how: Japanese-American and male), and what prism I view sports, and the world, though. I admit, when I saw the ESPN clip on Carson Wentz spending time with the terminally ill young boy (who unfortunately did pass away), I practically had a PERMANENT positive image about Wentz. I was crushed when he injured his knee at the Rams. BUT, so glad that the Eagles broke through and won a Super Bowl, AND especially because the Patriots finally actually lost a Super Bowl. For anybody who thinks Carson Wentz didn't earn that Super Bowl, I say, he got the Eagles those early wins, and was very much a part of them getting a 13-3 record, home field, and he fully deserves his ring. I wish Wentz could have salvaged his career more, after that, though.
He has real social issues. He grew up in rural North Dakota and then went to college in rural North Dakota. So he saw NO diversity for the first 20 years of his life. Then he ends up in the NFL (dominated by African Americans) huge culture shock. On top of that, he ends up in Philly (A huge city with almost 50% African American pop). I am not saying he is a racist. I doubt that, but he was really uncomfortable around black people and that's not good in this league. This was an issue on the team as he only had a relationship with several white players and that's about it. Zach Ertz set the all time signal season reception record because he tossed the ball to him even in coverage (don't get me wrong Zach was a beast). But that became a problem to the rest of the team. He would change plays to throw to Zach. That's not good. The same thing happened when he went to Indy. He did not listen to the coaches and was asked to leave less than a year later. Nick came in and spread the ball around exposing weaknesses all over the defenses (just ask the Vikes and Patriots), If not for a dropped pass to Alshon the next year we would have been in the Superbowl in back to backs. That's a real teammate.
Ohh shush with your silly nonsense .
Also blacks don't dominate football . That is such a nonsensical myth. A lot of the best players in football are white.
Jordan Mathews and Hicks say hello. Not saying he had the easiest time with the more... urban members of the team, but claiming race is a clown take
@@archieprime Ok white guy.
@@robertlawrence4719 Thanks Bobby, I'm sure you know a lot about race. 👍🏾
Just finished watching this. I’d never seen one of yours before. Really impressive Lauren! I’m now a subscriber.
Giving credibility to anonymous sources is irresponsible as it isn’t confirmed whether such statements were made from any player. For all you know it could be the same source who leaked the DeSean Jackson gang affiliation rumors. Carson’s receivers were weak because to Howie Roseman made them that way. Carson broke an NFL record with a terrible receiving core and instead of rewarding him that clown decided to forgo on CeeDee Lamb as trading the second pick to move up meant he couldn’t draft Hurts. He then decided it was a good idea to go on national television and likening drafting Hurts to a time where he decided against drafting Russell Wilson. That distasteful and disrespectful act from a GM would alarm ANY QB especially given that the QB mentioned played for
team who hit your starting QB with a cheap shot. Yet Wentz never said ANY thing foul about him even though he wouldn’t have been lying in the slightest. You don’t draft a backup and liken him to Russell Wilson PUBLICLY because you don’t draft a Russell Wilson to back up anybody. That move was a head scratcher for everyone that year. You don’t draft a back up that high with veterans in the FA pool who could AT LEAST serve as a mentor. In week 17 vs the Raiders, Carson left the field with the LEAD before the last ranking 4th Q Colts defense let Derek Carr carve them up with a kick to end regulation. I had season tickets and watched QB after QB take the lead with next to triple zeros on regulation. The Colts have notoriously had issues in Jacksonville. The Colts being one game away in a weird 17 week COVID season ABSENT training camp was very good. Carson Wentz had a passer rating of 94.6 with 3,563 yards, 27 touchdowns and 7 interceptions in 17 games in Indy. (not mentioned) Jim Irsay didn’t like him and unless he went 13-3 nothing was keeping him around. The talk about leadership in Indy is absolute bullshit. Leonard, Taylor, Kelly, and Pittman were all upset he was leaving. Frank wanted him and the GM and owner didn’t it’s as plain as that. As someone who personally knows Carson and has talked about everything from Philly to Indy to his foundation to 94WIP dude is a class act. What people don’t like about him is that his confidence doesn’t come from what people think about him so he doesn’t go out of his way to MAKE people like him. You either get him or you don’t and people who are people pleasers mistake that for arrogance. He’s met my family and we haven’t met a cooler, down to earth and self aware athlete.
Yessir totally agree
At Indy you didn't know if you'd get hero Wentz or hero-ball Wentz. One drive, instead of just throwing it away he'll try to left hand throw the ball and a defensive lineman gets a pick 6. Next series he's prime Wentz and they score a TD.
Your reaction is not embarrassing, as a Bears fan I have had the same reaction multiple times we all can't be blessed to have consistent great teams. Hope Caleb and the new weapons can turn it around for my Bears
the most annoying thing were the eagles fans who supported this guy through it all, glad we were able to get rid of him eventually
When Wentz posted a picture of him shooting a moose I lost all use for him
One of the biggest mistakes was his improper treatment of Jalen Hurts with whom he was suppose to mentor but was envious of but players watch and regretted
Damn man.. I really wanted him to be an Eagles legend..
Carson Wentz didn’t destroy his career the media and analysts destroyed it. Y’all always like to stir the pot and say shut that ain’t even real.
Yes the media is the one who’s 7-20 vs teams over 500 the media is the one who has zero playoff wins the media is the one who ignored wide open receivers
Shut up will you.
He reaped what he sowed. Dont want the media speaking about you? Dont be a POS.
