Ed: Did I miss something?  I can't determine who the backup QB will be for DeVito in the next game. Bob
If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

And there you have it. Rams sign Wentz. So much for nobody wanting him.

Rams just signed Wentz

SMART, TOUGH, DEPENDABLE

Wentz would have been a disastrous fit with the Giants.  Not only is he an ass, but he sulked like a baby when he was benched.  He holds on to the ball WAY too long, which makes him totally dependent on his O-line and WR's, neither of which are Big Blue's strong suits. Not to mention, Giants' fans would have turned on him in short order.  Because he IS an ass.

The Rams have more weapons, so maybe he'll be of some use to them. But I doubt it.

Yet. He's not wanting to save face, yet.

The Giants will not sign a QB that could potentially make Dan Jones look even worse at football than Dan Jones does currently.
 
Our QB play must have you pining for the glory days of ... *checks notes* ... the 0 touchdowns, 140 passing yards/game & losing by double digits Dan Jones barnburner era.

Otherwise, ownership would effectively be admitting what a negligent idea it was to pay him $40 mil annually.

Admitting their mistake? Not this ownership group. No, sir.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on November 07, 2023, 12:28:34 PMI don't personally want the Giants to rattle off meaningless wins now as I really want the best possible QB prospect we can get, but it's weird to me that nobody in the league wants Carson Wentz. I totally get that he was a huge disappointment relative to expectations and has had some injury issues, but no way he's worse than some of these names drifting around like DeVito and Eason. I mean Wentz had an 80 rating last year and a 94 rating the year before, and he's 30. Weird that he's not at least a backup somewhere. His career numbers are better than both Jones' and Taylor's.

Is there some unmanageable personality flaw I don't know about? It just seems weird that this guy is not on a 53 anywhere.

For whatever it's worth, as I understand, Carson is very religious.

A polarizing characteristic in the most normal of times.

In 2023 ... maybe that's the deal breaker.

Full disclosure; I hope it isn't.

There are groups of players who say prayers together before and after every game.  Being religious is not polarizing at all.  It's more the norm in the NFL than the opposite.

There have been and are plenty of religious players on the NFL.    This has zero to do with Wentz's playing status.

Jason Eason?

I guess I'm just surprised in general that Wentz is not on a 53 man roster anywhere (not just us).
At least not publicly.

From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.

I have an old profile still floating around: andrew_nyg....I am one and the same!
