And then maybe it would have helped once by now, like sure, do it now.

I think it's probably too late, but you might as well try.

Look, you have to decide for yourself, Stephen.

Especially you, Arlovski.

You decide for yourself.

Was I making it up?

But the end of last year number at the end of last year when I started pointing out that once was regressing when I'm making it up.

And then, coincidentally, the regression continued this year, even as people continue to deny it until it hit a point where it was undeniable and I just got lucky.

Why would I target Carson Wentz, of all people who I thought was the M V P until he got hurt in 2017?

No, I was seeing things last year that told me this dude is heading in the wrong direction and worse, he's being praised for it.

He's not having to look in the mirror and fix the things that are going wrong.

He's being told that he's excellent, and he's the reason the Eagles air winning and when they're losing when he's turning it over, it's not.

He's not his fault, and that has continued this year.

That's why they drafted a quarterback in the second round when, when it was like 26 years old.

Let's be realistic, guys.

I'm sure they didn't want to start.

Jalen hurts yet.

He's not ready, I'm sure, but it's not about giving yourself the best chance to win a game you're gonna lose anyway.

It's about trying your best to fix Carson Wentz and holding him accountable to the team.

He must be held accountable.

Stephen A.

He says.

That's just the way we do Things around here went said, because a couple of weeks ago he didn't feel nervous.

I hope he's feeling nervous now.

Maybe he'll start to address the many problems he's presenting as a quarterback.

I disagree with you, and I disagree with you are for a multitude of reasons.

Number one.

I'm thinking about the receiving corpse he has available to him.

Not that impressive.

Obviously, one of his primary target, Zach Ertz, has been out.

I'm also thinking about the fact that I'm looking at Doug Peterson and how this man has regressed, Carson once it's clearly regressed.

Nobody's arguing with you about that.

But I'm looking at Doug Peterson, and what the hell are you doing?

Just like I'm pointing to think of Bruce Areas and Todd Bowles in yesterday's case because you're asking Tom Brady to cover up for a bunch of deficiencies with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

You know, you might be asking Carson Wentz to do the same to a lesser degree with Philadelphia, and I don't think they could be absolved.

Here's the ultimate indictment against Doug Peterson, in my estimation and why I'm not a proponent off hurt, hurt starting overall.

Whence Tonight, Um, you've got guys and guys in Miles Sanders in Boston.

Scott.

They have averaged less than 16 carries combined a game this season.

Michael Scott.

I think I I think that he's averaging about 4.8 yards of carry.

Boston.

Scott.

I'm sorry.

He's averaging over five yards a carry thes guys air running the football effectively enough and you won't give them the damn football.

Maybe if you ran the football a little bit more, you wouldn't be asking.

Carson wants to do so much, and as a result, he wouldn't be getting himself in so much trouble trying to play hero ball so that that's definitely something that needs to be addressed.

And last but not least, here's the thing.

Jalen Hurts is a phenomenal athlete.

We saw what he did in Alabama.

We saw what he did at Oklahoma.

We know that the brothers, a stud athlete that has a lot of promise, and we wish him nothing but the best.

But we also know we saw why he got pulled from that from halftime of that national championship game.

We know why his career has struggled.

We know what the question mark about him has been.

His ability to throw the football.

Clearly, Doug Peterson does not believe in him because Doug Peterson is on the record Max, saying the other day, You know what?

If you're going to sit up there and make that move, you're throwing away the season, you're conceding that you're going to lose, and that's not what we want to do here.

So that tells you all you need to know about his belief in Jalen hurts.

Jalen Hurts has got to know that, and so if you go out on the field knowing that a coach, a head coach, was a bit compromised or a bit disgruntled about letting you be in that role.

And then you go out there and you don't perform.

It could mess with your confidence.

Moving forward.

Why do that for this season?

Why do that for this season?

Carson Wentz made his bed complete.

40 and 58% of his passes, 14 touchdowns, interceptions.

Let him lie in it.

Let him lie in it and let him find a way toe.

Work his way out of this this season because they've got too many problems to fix.

That way you, by Jalen hurts more time so you could build this confidence instead of jeopardizing it.

That's my take.

Starting Jalen hurts.

Tonight would be absolutely ridiculous.

It would be the wrong decision.

Carson Wentz is your starter.

You can still win this division as far fetched as you think it is.

And now, with Daniel Jones potential injury, you have the only team in the division that has your starting quarterback healthy.

The next four weeks are brutal.

The only way that you will survive the next four weeks is Carson Wentz playing really good football It's not gonna be Jalen hurts Max.

I find it absolutely fascinating that you could go back to last year in a stretch over the last, I think seven or eight games and Carson Wentz throw something like 18 touchdowns and four interceptions and go.

He's regressing.

What did you like?

What did your trained quarterback I show you in the middle of a seven game stretch, where he throws for 18 touchdowns and four picks with absolutely no one, everything with absolutely no one at receiver?

I would love to know how you saw regression in that.

I'm fascinated by that.

What's what's amazing?

I'm happy to answer that question.

What's amazing to me is that you'd want to do that to yourself.

Who you're one of the answer, the question breaking down this kind of stuff and you're so dug in, I will tell you he played the NFC East at the end of the season.

Like four times.

I saw every other sorry sad sack backup quarterback in rookie played better against all the teams that he was beating heroically, according to you, when he was turning the ball over on third down consistently in the four turnovers.

Bad decisions he was.

He was fumbling the ball to Dan.

Do you think so?

Let me ask turnovers.

Was I?

What if I'm talking about If I'm if I'm talking about regression last year and I'm alarmed by what I see And then again in the beginning of this year and you're denying it the whole time.

So you must have thought he was cruising at a very high altitude and then suddenly he fell off a cliff.

Is that what you're arguing?

Because you admit he stinks now?

So I'm saying it's been a long, gradual process from the middle of last year, and you're claiming No, Max, you've been ridiculous the whole time.

It just suddenly happened.

I woke up this morning and once is my I never.

Here's the difference.

I never pinpoint of quarterbacks the greatest thing ever.

No one else matters or quarterbacks.

The worst thing ever, no one else matters.

I have said he's not playing good this year, and there's a ton of variables that are adding to why he's not playing well.

Let's go to the Jalen Hurts conversation.
