Why Wentz is gone. From Peter King

[Oldcolt]

We are in the perfect situation, we have no bandwagon to get on. I think we will have a much better TEAM than many so called experts think. If you didn’t watch our games last year you cannot fathom how bad Wentz was. He didn’t play with a team mentality. By that I mean he didn’t make sure that he got the ball into playmakers hands (Hines etc) often enough. He seemed to see himself as the playmaker, not the facilitator Ryan understands the position so much better that I’m not sure any of us can fathom the difference he is going to make. We will be so much better but in more subtle ways that lose themselves to gross evaluations. Ballard is building a damn good team. He is showing growth as a GM. I’m getting excited about the season. I love catching people by surprise.
