![]() It’s the lowest 2H mark by any Eagles QB through three game since Doug Pederson had a 19.2 rating in 1999.One big reason why the Eagles have gone from 3-0 to 5-7 is due to the struggles of rookie quarterback Carson Wentz. ![]() ![]() After halftime he’s completed 55 percent of his passes with no TDs and 4 INTs.

Wentz is the first NFL quarterback with three or fewer TDs, six or more INTs and below 5.6 yards per attempt through three games in 13 years - since Drew Brees in 2007.

Coming into the year, Wentz averaged one INT 58.7 attempts, second all-time only to Aaron Rodgers (one every 72.2 attempts). In just three games, Wentz has dropped from 2nd-best in NFL history in interception percentage to 7th-best. ![]() Only four Eagles quarterbacks since 1980 have had a lower passer rating through three games than Wentz: Randall Cunningham as a rookie in 1985 (34.1), Bobby Hoying in 1998 (60.4), Doug Pederson in 1999 (57.7) and Donovan McNabb in both 2000 (62.0) and 2003 (51.1).Ĩ.

Wentz is only the fourth QB in NFL history to throw more than 130 or more passes through three games with three or fewer TDs. He’s the first Eagles QB to throw multiple 3rd-down interceptions in a game since Matt Barkley against the Cowboys in 2013. Wentz threw more 3rd-down interceptions Sunday (2) than he threw in 20 combined (1). Among 33 NFL quarterbacks who’ve thrown at least 45 passes this year, Wentz ranks last in the NFL in passer rating (63.9) and yards per attempt (5.6), tied for last with Kirk Cousins in interceptions (6) and 29th in completion percentage (ahead of Mitch Trubisky, Cousins, Dwayne Haskins and Jeff Driskel).Įagles Overreactions: Carson Wentz's Fourth-Quarter Drive Doesn't Mean He's Backģ.
