I'll pick it up tomorrow! Be well. Talk to you some time later.

It's like Bills fans saying Hogan only had 38 catches in 2016 and neglecting his crazy postseason stats against better competition in more meaningful games. The dallas game was utterly meaningless, but he stepped it up against better teams over the the next 3 games in a big way. And you're not doing the same? Saying your not going to count Rams stats or his rookie year? It's a joke. You are cherry picking years and stats for your point. You can do that, but you're ignoring years. Don't call someone out for a game or two at the same time.

I guess it comes to down to who you see Foles as: a Doug Williams/Mark Rypien type of player or a Rich Gannon/Jeff Hostetler-type of I think he's the latter based upon his game, but I'd understand if people see him as the former. Regardless, he's going to be an Eagle this year. I just realized this: the former did well for Washington in short bursts and the latter both did well for the Raiders over a sustained period of time. Hostetler was a lot better than people remember, btw. Edited April 23, 2018 by dave mcbride

Seems to me he's the former who has to plug into the right system with a talented roster. At any rate, I agree that he'll be with the Eagles this season.

Last season he was all over the place in regular season games with and he flat out stunk in a couple of games before catching fire against MIN and obviously the Super Bowl against NE. . Thank you. U can show any guy is good if you negate this season and that game. Foles got hot last year for the playoffs but has been average at best throughout his career

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 This contract means nothing, he will make 10 million more when he is traded. The Eagles don't have the cap space to keep him, I'm close to 100% sure that he will be traded on draft day.

The Red King Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 As I said prior, if Buffalo cannot feasibly trade up to get the QB they want, they may take a different QB without trading up, then trade for Foles as an insurance plan. The rookie gets to sit on the bench a year and learn, AJ and Foles battle for the starter role, and Peterman gets released. If Buffalo can trade up for the QB they want, they will likely no longer have the picks needed to trade for Foles, which is why there hasn't and won't be a trade for Foles until Draft Day rolls around.
