Why Jets' Brandon Marshall thinks Eagles' Carson Wentz is 'dumb'

Jets' receiver Brandon Marshall is a fan of Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz. He watched the rookie's first two games, and came away believing Philadelphia had "their guy."

But Wentz isn't perfect. Not yet, at least. According to Marshall, there's one big thing he needs to work on.

"He's smart, but he's also dumb," Marshall said on Showtime's Inside the NFL. "He has got to get out of bounds. He can't take those hits.

"Get out of bounds. Slide. Don't take those hits."

In the Eagles' 29-14 victory over the Bears Monday night, Wentz was lights-out.
