Some reports have indicated definitely wants out of Philly. Others have indicated he needs time to a se s his future with the organization. Either way, it's clear the relationship is on shaky ground. And doesn't think Wentz is wrong to be frustrated with his situation, even if his own 2020 performance wasn't Shaun Wade Jersey up to par."When they drafted , it was in his head," Quinn told Will Brinson on today's Pick Six NFL Podcast (). "There's a lot of resentment there. You can be happy for someone else, but let's be real, man: That's going to eat at you every single day. You can be a good person and a good teammate, (but) it doesn't mean you don't think that you could've been the guy ... It's human nature to go through that. I think the quarterback position is the one that battles that the most ...

Prisco's Picks: roll over , cruise Lawyer Milloy Jersey past BrownsThis week's NFL schedule is quite a bit lighter, but so much more important. It's playoff football, baby! That means it's time for playoff predictions, and Pete Prisco's provided us with . Among his projections for the opening round: Baltimore exacting revenge on Tenne see, and the Steelers easily topping the Browns.Ravens (-3) at TitansThese two make no secret about what they want to do on offense, which is to pound the football. Baltimore was the top rushing team in the league, while the Titans counter with, the's leading rusher. Tenne see beat Baltimore earlier this year and also beat them last year in the playoffs in a big upset. This time around I think the Ravens get revenge of sorts. Their defense is much better than the bad unit the Titans put on the field.will have a big day to advance the Ravens.Pick:Ravens 33, Titans 23***Browns at Steelers (-6)The Browns beat the Steelers last week to get into the playoffs, but it was a Steelers team that rested a lot of players, including. This will be much more of a challenge, especially without Browns coach Kevin Stefanski, who is out with COVID-19. The Browns' plan will still be to pound the football at the Steelers to control the clock and letmake plays on the move. But the Steelers defense will respond to that and play well here. Roethlisberger came alive in the second half of his last game against the and I think that will carry over against the Browns. The Steelers own the Browns in Pittsburgh and that will continue.Pick:Steelers 27, Browns 173. Insider notes: are right to stand by Tua Getty Images The Miami Dolphins didn't waste any time declaring their 2021 starter this offseason, expre sing support for the rookie QB days after his mixed bag of a debut came to a close. , they should be commended for doing so, mostly because teams have become a touch too impatient with young signal-callers in recent years.(Frankly), it's Justin Bethel Jersey kinda ludicrous that this was a thing at all. The kid had no real offseason, rode the bench the first month of the season, was thrust into an unforeseen playoff race, lost most of the key pieces around him on that limited offense along the way, and dealt with the quick-hook and in-game yo-yoing of head coach Brian Flores. How about we give him a full season with something akin to a true offseason before casting him aside?Have some conviction. Allow the young man some time to develop. He did some awesome stuff against thea few weeks back, when Steve Spagnuolo threw every blitz po sible his way. He was the rarest rookie QB to beat Bill Belichick just a few weeks back, with the weight of a long-suffering franchise on his back in a must-win spot. All of that happened.4.

Ranking wild-card matchups: Ravens vs. Titans best of the bunch Will Newton/Getty Images There's a lot of juice to be found in both conferences as we enter the playoffs, but which matchup carries the most drama and deserves the most anticipation? Our own Tyler Sullivan combed through each game to on tap for this weekend, and his No. 1 was an easy choice: Ravens vs. Titans, a rematch of their 2019 playoff meeting.I mean, how do you not put this as No. 1? These two teams have some recent history together and don't seem to like one another very much. Prior to their matchup in Week 11, Titans cornerand Ravens head coach John Harbaugh got into a verbal altercation that had nearly both sidelines go to blows at midfield ... This game also has plenty of star power with,and all slated to go. Jackson has been ripping through the league as of late and has recently looked like the MVP version of himself from 2019 ... Meanwhile, Henry is hot off a 250 rushing yard performance against thewhere he ama sed 2,000 rushing yards for the season.6.
