The former Eagles franchise QB threw two interceptions then two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter to beat his former head coach and mentor in Dougie's resurrection game.
LANDOVER, Md. — First, Carson Wentz shook Doug Pederson’s hand. Then he ripped out his heart.
Wentz cleverly, or conveniently, did not address the portion of a postgame question that concerned him facing Pederson, which was too bad. They have a fascinating history. He hugged Commanders linebacker Cole Holcomb, spoke with him for a bit, then turned toward the field to get his first chore out of the way.
Maybe it was shop talk: Super Bowl hero Nick Foles now in Indianapolis as a backup with Frank Reich, where Carson failed last season; or Howie Roseman finally finding some front-office mojo after both Pederson and Wentz exited after that disastrous 4-11-1 season.Pederson had made the playoffs in three of the previous four seasons, had won four playoff games — all without Wentz — and had brought Philadelphia its only Super Bowl title after the 2017 season.
