"Carson Wentz is and always has been a fraud" - NFL fans critical of Colts QB's recent failures
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz is now the target of NFL fans as they are commenting on his recent lack of success. Wentz just finished his first full season with Indianapolis as the team went 9-8 and finished in second place in the AFC South.
The quarterback threw for 3,563 yards, 27 touchdowns, and seven interceptions this season. However, fans are discussing some of his shortcomings.
Corey Johnson said, "Carson Wentz IS and has always been a fraud."

@TheMicDr Carson Wentz is terrible..
Daniel Ruttle had this to say: "Imagine a big factor is that after six seasons, he has shown no signs of knowing when to give up on a play. Foolish turnovers and bad sacks are things that should decrease steadily as a QB matures.
Wentz hasn’t done that. It was a huge issue in Phi. and it was bad in Indy too."
@FieldYates @McShay13 @MelKiperESPN Imagine a big factor is that after 6 seasons, he has shown no signs of knowing when to give up on a play. Foolish turnovers and bad sacks are things that should decrease steadily as a QB matures. Wentz hasn’t done that. It was a huge issue in Phl and it was bad in Indy too.
Frio mentioned "It’s insane how bad Carson Wentz's pocket presence is…he has zero feel for pressure…he makes some magic tricks happen when you run straight at him but other than that? Sitting duck."

Carson Wentz's career with the Philadelphia Eagles
He was the second overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft for the Philadelphia Eagles. In his rookie season, he threw for 3,782 yards, 16 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions.
However, in his second season, he had 33 touchdowns and seven interceptions along with 3,296 passing yards in 13 games.
The quarterback suffered a torn ACL in Week 14 versus the Los Angeles Rams, missing the remaining three games of the 2017 season. The team went on to win the Super Bowl that season over the New England Patriots with backup quarterback Nick Foles under center.
One of the major concerns with Wentz is fumbles, as he has the most amongst quarterbacks since 2016 with 66.
With reports that the Colts will either cut or trade him, where will the 29-year-old end up in 2022?
