The only people surprised by what happened with Carson Wentz on Sunday might have been the Washington Commanders. And that's the problem.
The decision to trade for Wentz isn't the worst move made by an NFL team over the past year, but it's a great example of why the Commanders haven't been good for decades.
The Commanders needed any spark as their season fell apart, but it was obvious Wentz wouldn't be the answer. And he wasn't. Jones had 131 passing yards and two touchdowns at halftime, and also 34 rushing yards. The Giants led 24-3. The Giants didn't pick up the fifth-year option on Jones' rookie deal and now have to decide whether to re-sign Jones, franchise tag him or let him go. That's a decision for later. Before then, the Giants have a playoff game to worry about.After a season of figuring the Philadelphia Eagles had the NFC East wrapped up, the Cowboys will enter Week 18 alive for the division title.
Campbell is a motivator and while that means he deserves some blame for his team being so bad last week, it wasn't going to happen twice in a row. He won't need any additional motivation for his team for next week's game at the Green Bay Packers.Not much has been good about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season. It looked for a long time on Sunday like they might lose to the Carolina Panthers, and the Panthers would have taken control of the NFC South with a week to go.
