"This is an RG3 equivalent, folks. This is worrisome ... That's a long rehab. And if it were my patient, it would take nine, 10, 11 months."The surgeon then went on to say, at least from his perspective, that it's "absolutely" too optimistic to expect Wentz back on the field for the Eagles' Sept. 6 opener. In his eyes, the two-year veteran would need a minimum of nine months of rehabilitation to start playing -- with a knee brace, no less. And that kind of time frame suggests Wentz wouldn't be available until mid- to late-September at the earliest. ne supra crepidam sutor iudicaret by Haden 6 years 1 month ago Total posts: 2131 Joined: Sep 06 2016 Spokane, WA RFU Survivor Champ Re: Wentz might be brace-dependent for rest of his career POST #2 BobCarl, BuiltRamTough liked this post Too bad.

But it doesn't come without risk. What kind of injury history will he have over the years? He'll be forever tied to Goff in the eyes of Rams fans because they had their choice between the two. I have to wonder what that comparison will look 5 years from now. Wentz puts his body at risk and missed time in college and NFL. Goff doesn't put his body at risk and he hasn't missed a game in either college or pros. by HAL 9000 6 years 1 month ago Total posts: 1009 Joined: Jan 20 2016 Jupiter Pro Bowl Wentz might be brace-dependent for rest of his career POST #7 Wentz relies heavily on his mobility by running around while anticipating a pass or becoming a running threat as part of his game, just like any other mobile QB (ie. Wilson). He is not a true pocket passer like Goff/Manning/Brady. I think he lacks quick decisions from the pocket, thus the running around to buy time and anticipate a broken defensive play down field. This could really hamper his game. Stay tuned.....
