4 Reasons Philadelphia Eagles won that Carson Wentz trade

The Philadelphia Eagles have already won the Carson Wentz trade.

It’s the uncertainty of things that makes the NFL game so doggone interesting. A little over five years ago, the Philadelphia Eagles drafted Carson Wentz out of a program that, had you asked most NFL fans what the team’s colors were, they wouldn’t have been able to tell you.

You see, before Wentz’s arrival, the most that the majority of the Birds fan base could tell you about Fargo was that it shared the name with a television show that aired on FX. Still, we were told that Carson would be great by everyone. He became one of the top two prospects at the position in 2016, and we believed it and bought in because that’s what fans sometimes do.

The word fan is short for fanaticism, and supporters of every team need something to believe in.

Sure, Wentz had his moments. He even got within an eyelash of possibly winning the NFL’s MVP Trophy once, but in the end, Philly would draft a project quarterback in Round 2 of 2020’s NFL Draft, Number 11 would lose his job, and then, and this is probably the most disappointing thing, Wentz decided that he didn’t want to compete to get his job back.

Carson Wentz was traded to the Indianapolis Colts on March 17th, a move that still draws the ire of some Eagles fans, but regardless of what side you are on, here’s the boldest of bold statements. The Philadelphia Eagles have already won in the deal. Do not adjust your television sets. No one cares if you disagree. Here are three reasons why that statement is accurate.
