Which Carson Wentz Will the Eagles Get Against the Colts?
Foles held it down for Wentz as best as anyone could. But what happens when Wentz is back at the helm for the Eagles in Week 3 and moving forward?
Yes, he’s the leader of this team and the face of the franchise, but those accolades were given under different circumstances.
Prior to his injury against the Los Angeles Rams last season, Wentz was arguably the best player in the NFL. However, he went down for the rest of the season, and well, the rest is history. But who will he be when he returns? Will there be rust? Yes. But the bigger question for the Eagles and Wentz is, will he try to be something or someone he’s not?
Will Wentz try to push too hard to make the fans forget he wasn’t the one who led the team to its first Super Bowl. How will he react to his first real hit if a Colts defender has him in his sights? And, with no receivers, will Wentz be able to make things happen where Foles has failed in the first two games?
Week 3 will determine all this and much more.
