VIDEO: Eagles Fan Predictably Burns Carson Wentz Jersey After Defense Surrenders 37 Points to Miami
By Adam Weinrib
Tale as old as time! Quarterback is unable to win in Philadelphia, or most other diehard NFL fan-packed US cities, and they're immediately vilified despite the fact that, well, plenty of other ingredients are necessary to create Fat L Soup. On Sunday, Carson Wentz led the Eagles to a 28-14 second-half lead in Miami, putting his team in position to grab a must-win game in the NFC East chase. Somehow, the team's defense surrendered that lead and then some to an emboldened tanking 'Phins team, and Wentz was unable to pull off a late-game comeback made near impossible by the time on the clock and a defensive disaster. Therefore, set that jersey ablaze!
Yeah, you won't be needing that! Real Eagles fans iron their jerseys while they're wearing them, just to show how truly F'd this QB situation is. Put it back on and iron it if you're a real fan!
Yes, Carson Wentz has regressed. But this Philly team is broken in so many ways. Maybe just torch a piece of paper that says "pass defense and effort level" next time?
