Carson Wentz was an NFL MVP front runner just a few years ago. He has since been replaced by Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles put him on the trading block. This comes after a 2020 season where Wentz and the Eagles offense didn’t meet expectations of ownership and management.
Wentz may not be the problem but he will have to show that on another team going forward.
Let’s take a look at how many times the Philadelphia Eagles won games against teams with a winning record with Carson Wentz as their starting quarterback.
I started to dive into this stat for every quarterback because the new hot argument is to say that a certain quarterback didn’t beat anyone good. I often see people use this argument to say players like Kirk Cousins and Matthew Stafford are not good and just put up empty stats.
First off and most importantly, quarterback wins are a team statistic. Secondly, very few quarterbacks in the NFL have a winning record against teams who finished the season above .500 in the league.
