Carson Wentz has one of the biggest drop

is on pace to have one of the worst seasons for a quarterback in history, certainly since the turn of the century. While Wentz's struggles can't be pinned entirely on him, the Eagles need more from a quarterback they owe $132 million over the next four years -- especially Ryon Healy Jersey considering he is competing with and for the title of NFL's worst quarterback in 2020.How bad has Wentz's 2019 season been? The Eagles quarterback has reached historic marks of NFL futility with his decline in play from 2019 to 2020. Since 1950, Wentz is the sixth quarterback -- and only one under age 30 -- to have his pa ser rating decrease by more than 24 points from his pa ser rating over the previous three seasons (minimum 1,000 attempts). Wentz had a pa ser rating of 98.3 from 2017 to 2019, which has dipped to 73.4 in 2020. , here are the six quarterbacks that had a pa ser rating decrease by 24 points Sam Tuivailala Jersey from their pa ser rating over the previous three seasons:Y.A. Tittle (1964) -- -42.2 (2015) -- -39.9Joe Theismann (1985) -- -32Mark Rypien (1993) -- -26.3Carson Wentz (2020) -- -24.9Brett Favre (2010) -- -24.8Four of the five other quarterbacks to have their pa ser rating drop that significantly retired after that season, the last two being Manning and Favre. This doesn't nece sarily mean Wentz is going to retire after the 2020 season, but the Eagles quarterback is just the second player in league history to throw 15 interceptions and be sacked 45 times through 11 games (Paul McDonald in 1984 is the other). McDonald never threw another pa s in the NFL after that 1984 season with the Browns. Wentz completed 64.4% of his pa ses and threw for 81 touchdowns to Taylor Guilbeau Jersey just 21 interceptions from 2017 to 2019, compiling a 98.3 pa ser rating. In 2020, Wentz has completed just 58.1% of his pa ses with 16 touchdowns to just 15 interceptions and a 73.4 pa ser rating. Wentz averaged 260.2 pa s yards per game and 7.2 yards per attempt from 2017 to 2019, but those numbers fell to 231 pa s yards per game and 6.0 yards per attempt this year.Wentz ranks second-to-last in the league in completion percentage and third-to-last in interception percentage, yards per attempt, and pa ser rating this season -- becoming one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. The drop-off is astonishing for a player many believed was a Jake Fraley Jersey top-10 quarterback heading into the season."We're frustrated, we're frustrated. I know I'm frustrated. I hate losing and it's very frustrating to have this result these last couple weeks and be where we're at this season," Wentz said Monday. "But the crazy thing about this league and this division, especially, is it's still wide open and guys know that. Guys know that and we're looking ahead to next week and getting this thing turned around getting it going in the right direction and, hopefully, surprise Jean Segura Jersey some people." The Eagles are still in the NFC East race, even has the ship continues to sink. If Wentz doesn't improve over the next few weeks, his era has the franchise quarterback -- shockingly considering how he played the previous three seasons -- may be over.
