However, since that season, he hasn't been the same elite player in the stat books or based on the eye test. Wentz is in his fifth year in the league and has dealt with several injuries that likely delayed some of the progression he was making. Generally speaking, Wentz has had some wild overthrows to open receivers this year and is holding onto the ball too long in certain situations. His second came on a lazy sidearm throw late in the fourth quarter. Against the Rams it was the same thing with Wentz under throwing a late pass into double coverage that was intercepted in the third quarter. In Week 1 against the Washington Football Team, both of Wentz's interceptions were thrown late and behind the receiver. The issue for me there is he's also failing the eye test. You can also point out the Eagles' injuries on the offensive line and mention their lack of elite talent at wide receiver as reasons to remain optimistic about Wentz.

Now, you can say it's too early in the season to jump to conclusions. His interception percentage is currently twice as high as the worst of his career, his Total QBR is likewise 50% worse than his rookie year and his completion percentage, yards gained per pass, sack percentage and most other stats that matter are also at a career-worst mark. Carson Wentz has regressed and the stats back it up.Д«eyond his rank among peers, so far Wentz is on pace to throw 24 interceptions and 16 touchdowns, which would be his highest career interception total and lowest touchdown total since he was a rookie. OK, I threw another Hembekides tweet in there, but you get the point. In those 29 games, they averaged 22.9 PPG (NFL average is 23.2 PPG during that time).- Paul Hembekides September 21, 2020 The Eagles have lost 15 of 29 regular-season games started by Carson Wentz since 2018. Petersen ? September 21, 2020Д¬arson Wentz games with a passer rating under 73Дў вЂ¦ Last eight days- Reuben Frank September 21, 2020 32.9 % on target throws (tied 6th worst) But he's hardly the only stat truther to jump on the Carson-Wentz-has-regressed bandwagon. Yeah, that's a major issue pointed out by ESPN stat guru Paul 'Hembo' Hembekides. If some of those stats seem made up or unimportant, let's go back to the eye test and see how he's done throwing the ball in a clean pocket.Д¬arson Wentz has made 20 off-target throws this season, most in the NFL.ДЎ5 have come inside a clean pocket (not pressured or under duress).- Paul Hembekides September 21, 2020 31 in interception percentage and net yards gained per pass attempt and also ranks among the bottom in other stats like touchdown percentage and yards gained per pass attempt. 32 out of 32 eligible quarterbacks in: Total QBR, Quarterback Rating, adjusted yards gained per pass attempt, adjusted net yards per pass attempt, and yards lost due to sacks. If you're a modern-day stat truther, you know it's much worse than that.Д¬arson Wentz is the worst quarterback in the NFL right now. If you're an old-school believer in the eye test, you know Carson Wentz has failed miserably this year.
