From Wentz He Came

Carlson Wentz is a rookie, but you wouldn’t know it from watching him play. He’s got a maturity and patience beyond his years and is always willing to take a hit if it means making a big play for his team.

He hasn’t seen anything like the Minnesota Vikings defense though. Mike Zimmer has a way of putting personnel on the field in a way that shows one look, but is actually something completely different.

Wentz will be tested in a way that he hasn’t been before during this game, and it will be interesting to see how he responds. So far, the Vikings have been able to confuse and frustrate former NFL MVPs and Super Bowl champions, so it will be paramount to make him feel the same kind of pressure.
