Vikings’ Carson Wentz to start for sixth team in six years | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

WE MADE A CALL FOR QUESTIONS PASSED THROUGH THE FILTER. IF CARSON WENTZ WINS THE NEXT 2 GAMES AND JJ MCCARTHY IS HEALTHY AGAIN, WHO STARTS A QUARTERBACK? IN GAME NUMBER 5 FOR THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS, THAT WOULD BE CLEVELAND BROWNS IN LONDON? LOOK, I MENTIONED THE 100% RULE EARLIER. IF CARSON WENTZ IS HOT, WE’RE GOING TO GIVE JJ ANOTHER WEEK. CARSON WEDNESDAY’S HOT. WE’RE WEEK. AND REALLY, THEY CAN GIVE JJ ALL THE WAY UNTIL WEEK 7 WHEN THE EAGLES COME TO TOWN COMING OUT OF THE BUY IF CARSON WENTZ IS PLAYING WELL, AND OF COURSE AND WENT STRUGGLES AND JJ’S NOT READY. LET’S SEE WHAT MAX BROSAMER HAS. THEY LOVE MAX BROSAMER. THEY LOVE HIM. LET’S SEE WHAT MAX BROSAMER CAN DO. IF WHENCE CAN’T GET IT, DONE 1 OF THE THINGS THAT I FIND INTERESTING ABOUT CARSON WENTZ’S PRESENCE ON THE VIKINGS ROSTER. NOW AS THE STARTING QUARTERBACK, HE GREW UP A VIKINGS FAN. HE TALKED ABOUT THAT YESTERDAY IN HIS PRESS CONFERENCE AND HE SAID IT’S GOING TO HIT HIM. IN A WAY THAT HE MAYBE DOESN’T EXPECT WHEN HE RUNS OUT TO BE THE STARTING QUARTERBACK ON SUNDAY AGAINST THE CINCINNATI BENGALS. AND AS LONG AS IT CAUSES HIM TO NOT THROW A LEFT-HANDED PASS FROM HIS OWN END ZONE, IT’S A GOOD THING. BECAUSE LOOK, HE’S DONE SOME VERY GOOD THINGS IN HIS CAREER BUT HIS HIS UNMATCHED. AND HE’S GOOD FOR THOSE OR BAD FOR THOSE 1 MOMENT OR SO A GAME WHERE HE DOES SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU SAY. HOW DID HE EVER START FOR A HIGH SCHOOL TEAM? SO THIS IS HIS CHANCE. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY. HE’S THE FIRST QUARTERBACK IN LEAGUE HISTORY TO START 6. DIFFERENT TEAMS IN 6 CONSECUTIVE SEASONS, THINK ABOUT THAT 1, 6 YEARS 16 TEAMS. HE STARTED A GAME LAST YEAR FOR THE CHIEFS. HE STARTED A GAME OF THE YEAR BACK BEFORE THAT WITH THE RAMS. THE YEAR BEFORE THAT IT WAS THE COMMANDERS OF THE YEAR BEFORE THAT IT WAS THE COLTS THE YEAR BEFORE THAT IT YEAR IT’S THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS 6 TEAMS IN 6 YEARS. REMEMBER THAT PICTURE OF HIM WEARING ALL OF HIS GEAR, HE’S GOING TO NEED MORE GEAR. THINGS NOW. WE’LL SEE HOW LONG HE STAYS HIM. TO SEE HOW LONG HE STAYS UNDER CENTER AND ON THE FIELD, BUT HE’S GOT A PRETTY GOOD COACH AND HE’S GO

Mike Florio explains how remarkable it is for Carson Wentz to have been a starter for six different teams in the last six years, given he’s slated to start Week 3 with the Vikings. #NBCSports #NFL #ProFootballTalk

  1. Wentz did not grow up a Vikings fan. He has stated in the past he had always been a Packers fan. He changing his tune now to gain favor with local fans, it’s a grift.

  2. A lot is on the line for me, as a cleveland browns fan here, a lot worth note, i really don't understand going Flacco and Pickett over Wentz, when i feel like between Joe and Carson ur kinda getting the same thing Carson is just younger and more productive, and he's like Winston but just more mobile, and he's just a free agent, ur not burning draft picks to acquire him ultimately. if he plays well, i won't be able count to count the amount of times, the browns rejected the chance to bring carson wentz in since his rookie year and for similar players with similar issues at that. i think i just find it funny how one week the media wants to praise JJ for his maturity and toughness and leadership and blah blah blah, the next they're curious KOC is gonna feel like benching him if a random veteran plays well. This media plays a fickle game man, and Carson knows it well.
