Coach: "So you're down 14 to 3 and you have a long ways to go ... but it's only early in the 2nd quarter. You don't see anyone op---"

Wentz: "I chuck it like some rookie, and throw it really off target, just like i'm going to do all game!"

Coach: "That's our guy!"

Naw I don't think that's what they're looking for / seeing in practice ..

I know I'll regret this.

Yes, Wentz had about 10 throws that ranged from bad to awful, in terms of accuracy and/or being a poor decision. Very frustrating.

He also had 26 completions for 313 yards. If JJ just holds onto the ball and falls to the ground, that throw is a TD. Refs stole another TD away with an absolutely absurd "holding" call on Brandel. Refs stole another TD away with a silly decision to overturn a called TD that would have stayed that way in many other games with other crews.

It almost doesn't matter how good he is ... because he doesn't play. Not quite there, but getting there fast.

And I've had reservations about how much JJ has ever had to DO at Michigan. Never felt like he really was the reason they won there ...

Maye didn't play last year, and is doing well this year.

It's not a wrong point by any means, it depends on the player and the situation (Captain Obvious, just saying)

I was more sure about seeing Maye play in college as a passer than JJ. Duno who would be good in the NFL, that's nigh impossible to know, but at least you saw Maye having games put on his shoulders. JJ just didn't happen much.

Granted Michigan did not HAVE to do that, and chose not to. Very reasonable choice by Michigan. But not seeing it happen leaves so much unknown.

Apologies, I was wrong about Maye. Don't know why I thought he sat out
 

Wentz has over $100 million in the bank and thinks God decides who wins games. We all care more about Vikings results than he does—terrible pick up and I’d bet a week’s salary that the kid Brosmer would take care of the ball better. McCarthy was running for his life behind one of the worst offensive lines the Vikings have ever run out there in the game that he got hurt and KOC just can’t help himself from continuing to throw the ball. I think he will be fine.
 


Sports trio blasted Wentz on his attitude during the channel 5 news this evening. Between sulking in the locker room after a Superbowl win, this situation today, and perhaps other events, I have no time for Wentz. He is going to be a cancer in the locker room if he hasn't already done it yet.

I always kinda ignore the attitude stuff.

I remember when Eli Manning was ridiculed for looking like “awe shucks” and so on. Then he won a Super Bowl and you didn’t hear it anymore. I don’t think we really know what they’re thinking.

I do see crappy play tho…

Yep....sure they will give JJ every opportunity to succeed but Max will be one snap away from getting legit crack at the starting job should JJ get hurt again.

Sure they might explore options for a veteran QB they can bring in but there isn't going to be much out there of any quality and with how the season is going I don't know that I would try to make a trade of any kind.

All that said they aren't out of the playoff picture yet officially so tough to say what the team will elect to do.

I smell KOC and KAM sending a draft pick for some putz that isn't any good who then gets beat out in training camp next year by an UDFA.

Flacco-time!

Case Keenum is the Bears' 3rd-stringer. Let's bring back the magic!

Russell Wilson has been benched in NYC. If KOC agrees to give him his own private office, he'll be here!
