Hey, maybe if we get all that extra OTA work this year, just spend three weeks running nothing but check-down plays.... couldn't hurt.

Check downs happen when you get to the end of your progression. We could take all the wr off the field so he is forced to check down. But he might just keep looking forward scanning back and forth.

Or just restructure his contract to include most of his salary dependent on completion percentage

Or better yet, restructure the contract to have his salary dependent on team wins.


In 1994, the 49ers signed Rickey Jackson to a free-agent contract that had a base salary of $162,000 and a potential bonus of $838,000 ...... without the bonus, Jackson would have had to settle for that $162,000. With the bonus, Jackson would have been paid $1 Million overall.

And what was the bonus clause in Jackson's contract ??? If the 49ers made it to the Super Bowl, then Jackson would get his bonus which was more than 5 times his base salary. The 49ers won the NFC Championship that year, and Jackson got his bonus ...... if you want to see somebody be a team player, then tie up all of his bonus/incentive money into something like that and he'll be the biggest team player in the history of professional sports.

Wentz already folds under any perceived pressure. He would crumble under the pressure of his check depending on wins. I'm betting he wouldn't respond well. He needs to go play for another team.

I don't think that it would help, either ...... I just couldn't resist when I saw the opportunity to tell my Rickey Jackson story about him getting a bonus of more than 5 times his base salary for his team making it to the Super Bowl.

I would go with CPOE because he gets a lot of garbage time completions.

Just in case it turns out there is no better option for the Colts, is there someone the Colts could bring in as a consultant to work with Wentz the entire off season...maybe it is not too late to salvage his career if he is willing to work his ass off and make the necessary changes!

I have seen all kinds of "experts" who claim they see the flaws in his mechanics online. Maybe we can hire one of them real cheap, as they are not employed by any NFL team yet.
