The receivers are part of it, but most of it is on Wentz.

 

We've had this conversation before about Mahomes etc and now you're extending it to other QB. 

 

A little more time to throw, and receivers who are on the same page with the QB for how they run the routes and who are able to adjust on the ball make a huge difference to how a QB looks.  Ironically the QB for whom historically it's been least true has been Brady because their coaching and system are so engrained that even the backups are "in the book"

And even he says it takes him "a month" to get in sync with a new WR.

 

I'm not saying Wentz wasn't over-hyped after his 2nd year, but Wentz would look very different right now with top WR.   Even Mahomes put up less passing yards throwing to Mecole Hardman instead of Tyreek Hill given a team that can cover Kelce.

So Wentz's guys have had issues with drops, but I am excluding those plays from the evaluation. He is holding the ball too long when there are open guys and his throws are scattergun. I think there is a real chance that by the end of next season, without major improvement, the Eagles are wondering whether they need to look again at the position. What I will say in his defense is I think a lot of the problem is mental for him. That's why I found the Peter King "yips" suggestion interesting. I could certainly see that.

"The Gase haters and the Darnold jokers are awfully quiet this morning. The @nyjets season was summed up on one play. 4th & 2. Raiders give it to their fullback and Gregg Williams' D stuffs him. That was the Jets to the army of critics swarming the first two months." - @PSchrags

 

 

 

They beat the Raiders and suddenly what?   LOL.

I mean they absolutely whooped the Raiders and unfortunately Darnold has been trending up.

The Jets were a wild card contender before Mono came into play. They are a top 15-20 team currently and will be a tough win for Buffalo in Dec.

I don’t see one win to pen..or pencil...in for the rest of the season. The Bills could finish 11-5 or 8-8. It’s a grind from here on out.
