tBBP 2,736 Posted February 18 Meanwhile, I'm over here wondering what Jacoby Brissett must be feeling right now (former Brady backup, btw): first Phillip Rivers came in and now this. Unless the Colts really don't have much faith in the guy--in which case I wouldn't be surprised is he starts angling for a way out of there... 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBTV 21,019 Posted February 18 1 hour ago, dont care said: Isn’t most of that criticism coming from you though? not at all. I don’t like him personally but the media has painted him as a monster the likes of which I don’t recall ever seeing around here. even I’ve been listening to the media here and saying “man, that’s too much”. i think it was over for him here, but he’s got a shot to have a really good rest of a career in Indy. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rockstar Matt 1,681 Posted February 18 2 hours ago, heavybass said: Carson Wentz traded to the Colts for a 3rd Round pick in 2021 and a conditional 2nd round pick in 2022. Bears called out the Eagles bluff for 2 1st Rounders. Lmaooooo. That’s all the Eagles got for him? They’re only getting that return and paying Wentz nearly 34 mil for him to NOT be on the Eagles? (although I can’t laugh too hard considering the Cowboys have yet to resign the best QB from that draft and have a real possibility of losing him to Free Agency next offseason). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(although I can’t laugh too hard considering the Cowboys have yet to resign the best QB from that draft and have a real possibility of losing him to Free Agency next offseason). I think that’s “dead cap” money, right? They’re not actually giving him A check for $34m, though I’m sure they’ve already given him some bonuses. Another thing is that they would have owed him $10M on league day 2 if they didn’t trade him ahead of time. I think given his contract and history, a 1 and a 3 is just fine for him 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sec19Row53 4,080 Posted February 18 3 hours ago, BBTV said: Multiple sources had the Bears offering a 1, another pick, and one/two players, but Wentz basically said he didn't want to go there and wouldn't cooperate. This trade seems like it's a 3 and then either a 2 or a 1, based on if he plays 75% of the plays next year. If the Eagles get a 3 and a 1 for him then that's pretty good, even if it'll be a late 1. Carson has been vilified to the extent that very few athletes get here. He's been made out to be a complete prima dona that can't handle any criticism or coaching. That being said, he's got a great chance to succeed in Indi, considering his old coaches are there, and it's a market that doesn't really care that much so he won't be bothered. Sources also had the Bears making no offers, as they weren't interested. The 'guaranteed' 2 also becomes a 1 if he plays in 70% of snaps and they make the playoffs. If he (or the team) are sucking at mid-season, you bench him so you don't accidentally give up a 1. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he (or the team) are sucking at mid-season, you bench him so you don't accidentally give up a 1. Or 75% of snaps regardless of playoffs. Even with all his injuries, he's only missed that once. It's certainly possible he gets benched for sucking, but given their long-term financial commitment to him (and his temperament), it's unlikely they'd bench him unless it's horriffic. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DNAsports 6,238 Posted February 18 A friend of mine said Wentz is an upgrade over Rivers. I’m... not exactly sure about this? Maybe? Probably not? I don’t know if there’s really any context to prove Wentz is better than Rivers in any capacity? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dynasty 2,420 Posted February 18 Wentz doesn't exactly have the rust Rivers had, but given that injury history... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBTV 21,019 Posted February 20 I just don't get how you have a shrine for a guy who you were the backup for. I get that being Favre's backup made him a lot of money but that's a little much. I don't think I"d want to have any memorabilia in my home that reminds me that someone was way better than me at his job. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the admiral 29,157 Posted February 20 Don't think of him as Favre's backup, think of him as a beefy white guy from Wisconsin named Doug. That explains the Favre memorabilia. It doesn't, however, explain the carpet. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
