On Sunday afternoon, during what was probably the biggest NFL matchup of the week, Eagles quarterback and MVP short-lister Carson Wentz exited the game with what turned out the be a torn ACL in his left knee.

Also not surprisingly, shortly after the news about the second-year QB became official, a number of Philly fans took to Twitter to share a range of emotions: some resignation, some slight optimism, but mostly just total misery.
