Wentz out with knee injury

[steelermania]

Keep this in mind when you call for Ben to run on short yardage.

Sure but Wentz was being very aggressive and dove to try and get into the end zone with 2 defenders about to hit him. Ben isn't that aggressive.

 

[Steelerfreak]

Yep. Philly fans now gonna have a heck of a hangover from all the Kool Aid they've been drinking.


I still have nO objections to ben running a QB sneak.

Option no. Qb draw maybe but he has gotta know to slide.

If Wentz is done then the Eagles are done.

Ouch...the best laid plans of mice and men...

 

[fogdoctor]

Too bad. I liked watching Wentz play today. Must have been hit 20 times before that.

 

[Djfan]

Any updates on him?

 

[TDX27]

No defense on either side. The O's just scored a ton other than the blocked punt for a TD by the Rams. The Eagles have a ton of receiving options if they have Wentz back there firing the ball. With him they are tough to stop. With Foles, not so much.

From the reports I've seen looks like ACL tear.

Haven't Philly fans learned anything from Randall Cunninghamm...

Eagles are concerned QB Carson Wentz tore his left ACL, per source.

 

[fogdoctor]

I forgot they had Foles. He made a couple of nice throws. If Ben went down we would be ******.

 

[TDX27]

If he tore his ACL, he is done for year.

As Carson Wentz walked off the field at one point, his left knee buckled. He headed to locker room, where Eagles treating knee they fear has a torn ACL, per source.

 

[Djfan]

NFLN said torn ACL. If so, he's done for the year.

Looks like either the cheats or us just won a SB

No one called for Ben to run on short yardage. A sneak is not the same as a head first dive with defenders closing in at full speed.

Ironically, Cunningham went down in the pocket. See 10:16 of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjPpYCn7RzA

He will have to go back to Wentz he came.

Injuries are going to make the end of the season very interesting...

I pray we don't see anymore in Pittsburgh.

 

[thesteelcity]

wow, that's kinda shocking. Sure, he took a shot in the leg, but it looked like a charlie horse or a sprain. ACL surely sucks for him. He's damn good and so are the Eagles. The Rams and Vikings just got very fortunate, if this is true.

No doubt. We had a good run with low injuries early in the year. I want that bye week.

You can walk on an ACL, you just can't play football on one.

 

[TDX27]

They said his knee buckled when he was on his way into the tunnel. That's not a good sign.

 

[Wolf18]

Sad to see as right now Wentz is playing the best of any QB in the league and second is not close.

 

[TDX27]

It is sad to see. He was playing lights out. I think he had 24 TD's inside the red zone
