Wtf? The Eagles are 3-2 and he will be leading them to victory for the next 15+ years.
The line, particularly the rookie RT starting his first game ever yesterday, failed him miserably yesterday and he still had the Eagles in position to win. Hell, I wouldn't count the Eagles out of the division yet. They're five games in with a new staff and redshirt rookie QB. Have a little patience, son.

Just beat the Vikings and all will be well in the world again.

Agreed, Wentz is going to be the QB for the next decade. Get him an offensive line and another WR and then have the defense step up and this will be a good team for a long time. Rome wasn't built in a day and the Eagles aren't a Super Bowl team yet. But like you said, they could still make noise in this division. It's the cowboys I'm worried about. Forget Dak, he's just along for the ride. I could hand off to Elliott and have him run behind that line, and the difference this year is that Dallas is playing defense as well. They're the dangerous team.

Bradford obviously is playing on a 2015 playoff team while Wentz is a true frosh rookie with no WRs and a shaky OL.
This ^ is the POINT exactly...
The Vikings were a playoff team last year and actually GOT BETTER in the off season
And when they shed the Adrian Peterson contract next off season WATCH OUT
Bradford walked into a dream job...
Q: Name something that offends Republicans?
A: The actual teachings of Jesus
Bradford walked into a team that has the worst OL in the league. Since he's got there they've lost both starting tackles and a guard.
He's lost his starting running back-though I've been an advocate of getting rid of AP for a few years now.
The Vikings offense has been horrendous and Sammy Two Sleeves has made it respectable.
What's also interesting is how close Bradfords numbers in Phily last year are to Wentz this year and how one was hated the other is a savior.
Identical completion percent. Almost equal yards per attempt. More yards per game. The only difference is picks, which I get makes a good difference. I don't know the story behind his picks last season so I can't comment if it was bad reads, bad throws, or what it was.

Some were real, real bad picks.
Hey, I like Bradford, and I think he would've had a very fine year this year for the Eagles. But Wentz is just a better QB in every respect. Not a slam at Bradford, as I think he's a legit NFL, above average QB, and that's pretty good praise. But Wentz is better.
“It helps having some knowledge of their personnel…but they were still trying to figure out who they were then.”
“I felt like things were really coming together for us [in PHI]…I was really excited about the year”
“When I found out Teddy got hurt, I think I said some prayers for him. I’ve been in his shoes.”
“[The thought of landing in Minnesota] never really cross my mind”…until it happened.
“It’s been a whirlwind of emotions…the good news about the trade was that it happened so fast…didn’t have time to think about it."
“It was a great experience [in PHI]…I learned a lot about myself.”
“I’m not surprised at all by the way that [Carson Wentz] has played…you could see it on the practice field.”
