That and the fact that it was reported that Wentz had the same type of problems in Indy that he had in Phiily causes me to doubt that he can lead the Commanders. If Frank Reich couldn't fix him, how has he changed to give us hope that our staff can?
The thing with that narrative that Wentz "caused his team to lose crucial games" is, yes there has to be some truth to it, and yes 2 teams moving on from him is some kind of a red flag... But... watching at games I just don't see it... Busy personal life until July so I probably won't have time to watch games before that... But the 2 games I watched to far, including the infamous Jaguars game, didn't show me a guy costing his teams games. It showed me an NFL starting QB giving his team a chance, making some really hard throws, and yes making some bad mistakes when trying too hard because his defense couldn't stop my grand ma in an electric wheelchair on low battery and his Oline couldn't pick up a nanometer on 3rd/4th and short...

We're not getting 2017 Wentz. But don't fall for the lazy narrative, watch the context in which 2 teams moved from him, with the Colts it really seems like a knee jerk move by the owner more than a long thought coach decision. And watch the actual games, it's not nearly as bad as it's made out to be. Even that last game, one ugly INT and a couple of high throws, but other than that a very decent game.
