NFL teams run RPOs, and colleges have produced a number of QBs in recent years. Settle down there, grandpa. ;)
The talent level of QB's coming from college has dropped DRASTICALLY. And yes, i realize nfl teams run RPO's. You kind of have to start doing college shit when you have a below average QB.

lol @ the eagles. Hope the NFL investigates. I hear the players aren't too stoked on how they handled this.

It is amazing how he's never missed a game in his career. Some guys just have a knack for absorbing hits without injuries. Look at Goff. Many people said he'd be broken in half with his thin frame while Carson Wentz was better built for the NFL. Now Wentz is becoming injury prone and Goff has never missed a game college or pros.

As soon as I saw Wentz's reckless play in the NFL I commented more than once that he likely wouldn't make it through a full season. Now it's two strikes with the knee and the back. Just a bad situation.

Wish him the best to get healthy but he needs to take care of himself. Playing with a back injury, if that's in fact what he has been doing, is not a good start. In fairness to Wentz I think that along with recovery from the acl this explains his diminished level of play this year.

Jared Goff
Patrick Mahomes
Carson Wentz
DeShaun Watson
Baker Mayfield

All disagree. Even the guys who haven't worked out quite as well, like Dak, Mariota, Winston, Trubisky, and Jimmy G, are solid QBs.

NFL teams start doing "college crap" because they recognize that it works. It has nothing to do with the talent of QBs. If it wasn't effective, they wouldn't do it. That's how the game evolves. Experimentation is done at the lower levels with the cream rising to the top.

Lolz. The Patriots have been doing that college crap for 20 years and it seems to have worked out ok for them. ..

So now it’s 4 consecutive seasons (including the only year he started at D2) that Wentz has endured a fairly significant injury

This ridiculous debate is over, Rams got it right on 65% (and that’s being conservative) of this board got it wrong, just the facts boys

@jrry32 among a few others knew all along
