However you are not accounting for the bad decision making, the turnovers, the bad mechanics. If was simply a matter of getting more talent they would have kept him. Teams dont bench a franchise QB for multiple games and they don’t trade him away when they are entering their prime. Especially if the QB under him has a lower ceiling. There was a reason we were the only suitor. Sure he could return to form, I would say the pieces are in place to do that. But to not admit there is significant risk associated with Wentz is just homerism. Luckily it looks like it is only a two year investment if he is average to bad.
What does it matter if it was a prime time game or not. Was it against equally horrible nfc east teams? They won four games.

There’s no patience with qbs nowadays they want them to step in and be mahomes or Lamar and everyone wants the shiny new toy. Look at all the qb movement this off season it’s ridiculous
The Eagles went with the cheaper option and future potential option not necessarily the best option.
Winning games in prime time shows me a guy that’s not afraid of the big moments I want a QB that shines in big games. He beat the 49ers (before the were injury ravished) Cowboys, and Giants. Played good games and kept them in vs the Ravens, browns, and Steelers
