The morning after a 26-24 win in Los Angeles, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz was sharing messages of concern about the mass shooting in Las Vegas.

Carson Wentz is the talented young QB of the Philadelphia Eagles. If you have to get an NFL fix once in a while then Eagles Carson Wentz is the guy you want to follow, plus you will annoy libtards.

What would Jesus do? Shoot the guy himself?

He will be fired before the night is out. The adversary will not tolerate any positive reference to Christ.

The NFL will blacklist him for this because they are a Godless tool of the Left now.
Persecution of Christians has arrived in a big way in America.
Just watch.
I mean, not the NFL, watch what happens to Wentz.
And YES, The world does need Jesus, each human needs Jesus on the personal level.

He’s right. All I can Think about this incident is that evil truly does exist.

If people believe they can go to Hell for acts like these, they wouldn’t do them.

That is a beautiful tweet! We could use more known professionals joining him (in sports and otherwise) speaking out similarly.

Carson Wentz is very religious and he wears it on his sleeve. Tebow level faith except he doesn’t pray on his knees during the games as far as I can tell. But for whatever reason he never has (yet) polarized fans and the league brass like Tebow did. Just saying that if you liked Tebow because of his values you ought to take a look at Wentz and what he’s doing off the field as well as on.

Why no, I don’t have to have an NFL fix ever.

The young man is too good to be squandering his life playing with a ball.
The Marines might be a good option. When I was in we really needed better Chaplains, although that has since improved.

Let him do something actually worthwhile.

I think God is ok with us defending our self if we are being shot at, or it’s our job like Police etc to subdue/shoot an active shooter.

yes we (all of us) need more Jesus, but the question that was asked was valid.

Nawww...the anti-American baby-killing flagburning NFL linemen he has blocking for him will lay down and let the defense cripple him...the same way they crippled Derek Carr for putting his hand over the heart during the National Anthem.

Unfortunately, some people are so twisted by evil that they do not care.
