Positives from the 2017 season?
-
They are very tough to see with the glaring overall record in the last 2 years but this team does have quite a few positives. Since the team came back in 1999 this is the best building of the Interior on both sides of the ball. Maybe a few years the o line was better but overall both sides trenches are the best I've seen with some young Raw Talent. They just need The Playmakers on both sides of the ball those first two draft picks should be spent on receiver running back guys that can score touchdowns. And on the defensive side of the ball The Playmakers that turned touchdowns in the field goals and turn scoring drives into turnovers.
And DeSean Kizer has been wrongfully beat up this year. McCoy Weeden Manziel fry Quinn Kiser has showed me more maturity and more growth in a short time and worse situation than any of those guys. I mean let's be real he was given less talent and asked to do more than any quarterback in the NFL as a raw rookie. And he seems like he's got the mentality and maturity for the job not in trouble not drama doesn't have a friend that always gets in trouble not partying not drinking not creating controversy. You gave all those other stiffs years to figure it out and you gave this 21 year old kid with all the clubs in the bag 10 games. ridiculous

What positives??
Kizer sucks, run game is inefficient, too many penalties, DBs can't cover,THIS TEAM IS A DUMPSTER FIRE!!
SHOULDA HAD WENTZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! -
@ Tour: What you are saying is that, like the old adage, man does not live on bread alone. Good teams do not live on a good QB alone.
There certainly have been some good QBs playing on bad teams...and vice versa.
Curious question: Which teams this year 2017 are being held back by a bad QB?
And are there any actually bad teams that have been greatly enhanced by the presence of a good QB?
Pretty much got it, Gip. Right now Wentz is "bread".... "white bread" if you want to go there.
The "other" stat line I placed above Carson's is Dak's from 2016. A good QB who came into a great situation as a rookie. A QB some Wentzbackers, among others, have pointed out looks pretty ordinary this year absent his LT and RB and a Sean Lee led D. Can't disagree with that, but the telling thing I see between the two stat lines are the 4QC (4th Qtr Comeback) and GWD (Game Winning Drive) figures. While these are from mutually exclusive measures of "clutch", they are macro-ish measures of that quality. I am not saying Wentz lacks it, just that there's no solid evidence he has it at the NFL level.
Not saying he does not turn out to be Prime Filet Mignon... just not there yet. I think he has the opportunity this Sunday in Seattle to show if he is heading up the food chain.
You've raised a pair of good, thread-worthy QB questions. I'll wait for you to crank one up rather than further "derail" this tread....

Anyone want to talk about Carson today?
Looking forward to seeing how his fill in does tomorrow... and the next two weeks.

Are you implying that Wentz is an average QB who benefits greatly from the system he plays in?

we can all speculate on anything we want. I can speculate tom brady is an average qb without BB. All the analytical guys(Barnwell types) as well as the non-analytical types seem to feel Wentz has been very very good this year and a top 5 qb at least. You're kind of on your own island on this. Well not kind of. I guess there is nothing wrong with having an extremely different viewpoint, but when it also corresponds to a projection one had before actual data was in, well thats a bit suspicious.....

I love my island...
... and for half a game anyway my original darkhorse is making my island looks like valuable real estate. Speculation ends as data arrives.
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES Passing CP/AT YDS TD INT N. Foles 15/23 142 3 0 But it is against the NY football Giants, so... we shall see.

foles is a good back up. I don't know what is in store for Wentzs career. But he's been real good this year. one of the best in the league. We know that as it already happened.

My biggest positive will only be Hue getting fired. Otherwise NOTHING has been positive

Point is that "a good back up" stepped in and the Eagles Offense did not miss a beat.
Passing CP/AT YDS TD INT N. Foles 24/38 237 4 0 That's data point #1 with two more to come in the regular season... and at least one in the regular season.
The argument is not whether Wentz is "good"... he is... Top 20 and everything...
The argument is whether he is "great"... "one of the best in the league"...even "MVP-worthy".... I don't think he is. I think he's a good QB being elevated by a great team.
How well his "good back up" does filling in is a test of my island's integrity.

I believe that watching him doing stuff only Russell Wilson and Aaron freaking Rodgers do, has something to do with general perception of Wentz's level.

Wentz is good, but one thing that seems to fly under the radar is the Eagles have a top 5 defense.
