son what are you even talking about, do you disagree with any of my points cause it looks like you have absolutely nothing to say

Don’t call me son...:j:

Idk goon dude - I’ve seen what I think has been touch, and to my eyes his mechanics have improved - I’ll give you the inconsistent deep ball - but I also freely admit that I don’t know what I’m looking at more than people paid to do this poo poo so I trust what people who watch film for a living tell me because I’m a loving amateur at this.

Also he ability to make Big Ben type plays is a loving skill as well. You’re chalking it up to luck when that kind of awareness and escapablitiy makes a QB a better football player than someone with the same throwing skill set that can’t do it.

It seems like you’re completely discounting that part because it doesn’t fit your narrative

how can we not talk about family
when family's all that we got?

Did you see him early on in his career? He's got the experience to see the field better now, Wentz has the ability to drop dimes when he's not running for his life, and he has the arm strength to do it too - which in and of itself is a massive bonus in his favor.

my main issue is that there's been no improvement in mechanics or downfield accuracy between last year and this year, which doesn't bode well for his future development. remember, in 2014 Bottles was getting all kinds of Big Ben comparisons but failed to actually make any of the necessary adjustments to his game

yeah and that sucks for them, but it doesn't mean I have to pretend I think Wentz is an All Pro

I took "seriously isn't very good" to mean worse then you wanted to imply then.

Not like the current crop of NFL quarterbacks is worth a poo poo, but Wentz is easy in the top half of the league.

Wentz is a decent second year quarterback who has the potential to get much better but still has a lot to learn.

There, I just solved your guys' dumbass argument for you

Apparently I've been using that word wrong for a long time. I meant the Jags are probably going to beat up the Hawks.

I usually don't drink when watching games either because it's just me in front of my computer and that's how alcoholism starts.

No no, that's a valid use of the word imho. Except for the fact that I have no idea who you mean by "we"

I really wish I could find a clip of Rudock getting absolutely canned right in the face and throwing directly to a Raven defender. That truly was a thing of beauty

As long as we can all agree that he has much more accuracy and touch than McNabb.
