Former Eagle Carson Wentz and the Indianapolis Colts failed to make the playoffs after a shocking loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

When Chris Boswell kicked an overtime field goal to give the Steelers a 16-13 win over the Ravens Sunday in Baltimore, it officially eliminated the Colts from playoff contention and meant Wentz will go into his seventh NFL season without playing a postseason game from start to finish.

A win would have clinched a playoff berth for the Colts, and even with a loss they could have locked up a postseason berth if the Ravens beat the Steelers, the Dolphins beat the Patriots and the Raiders beat the Chargers.With so much at stake, Wentz came up incredibly small, turning in the kind of performance that’s become all too common for him in recent years.

Although Wentz padded his stats with a meaningless touchdown drive in the final minutes, through 52 minutes against the NFL's 31st-ranked defense he was 9-for-20 for 100 yards with no TDs, an INT and a lost fumble and was sacked six times. Say what you will about Howie Roseman, the Eagles robbed the Colts in this deal, ridding themselves of Wentz and gaining a 1-round pick that at worst will be No. 18 in the 2022 draft this spring as well as a 3rd-round pick in this past draft that indirectly became Milton Williams.

Darn...was really hoping he'd improve on his playoff stats. 1 reception for 4 yards.

Can’t get hurt in the first quarter of the playoffs if you don’t make the playoffs

He stinks

Lmao

Too many Republicans are no longer conservative. They are strictly anti-liberal (to the point of being fascist). I don’t recognize what used to be my GOP. I really don’t.
