Carson Wentz was talking to students at an Indy Christian school during an event for his AO1 foundation and delivered this quote, transcribed by the AP’s Rob Maaddi:

I don’t have some anti-Christian sentiment or anything. I grew up Catholic, currently not practicing, and I understand life can be easier if you feel you have a purpose or believe in something. That being said…

If I’m a Commies fan I’m throwing my arms up in the air and rolling my eyes into the back of my head. I know God might not care about all of the touchdowns you throw, but Greg in section 207, who got pooped on last year while spending $5k on tickets, does. Imagine working at a car dealership and telling your boss it doesn’t matter how many Nissan Altimas you sell because God doesn’t care how many Nissan Altimas you sell. Are you going to tell the bank that when they come take your house? Was it God’s plan to lose to the Raiders and Jaguars in back to back weeks? Because if so, maybe you gotta ask God why he hates you. Why does he throw all these challenges continuously at you? Why did he sprain both your ankles at one point? Because if this is your mission, other than the $100+ million, this mission blows.

It just feels like Carson Wentz is a preacher who plays football. His entire identity is being Christian and not being a QB, which is fine, but if I’m the Commies I don’t want to pay someone $28 million who’s going to throw a pick six late in the 4th quarter and throw his hands up saying, “God’s plan” –

What if God kept Carson out of heaven because he had Colts -2.5 in Week 8?
