Virgil Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 If they guy can win a superbowl, he can start until your future is healthy. Absolutely no reason to rush him back. Smart move.
whatdrought Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Will be really interesting to see which Foles we get.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Was there any doubt? Wentz isnt “healthy” enough by all reports

26CornerBlitz Posted September 5, 2018 Author Posted September 5, 2018 Which Foles Will Show Up Thursday vs. Falcons? The Eagles open their 2018 campaign Thursday night against the Falcons. Nick Foles will be under center as Carson Wentz eases continues to recover. But which Foles will show up for the Eagles?
MJS Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 Hmm, I forgot to consider this. I might have to change my pick to the Falcons.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 And this is why I'm all over the Falcons this week. The pumpkin's turning back into a stagecoach.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 7, 2018 Author Posted September 7, 2018 The Curious Case of Nick Foles: What's Next? PHILADELPHIA -- Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles stood on stage at the ESPYS this summer, looking out at a sea of stars as a montage of his Super Bowl heroics played on the giant screen behind him. He tried to sum up the trip to this moment, which he admittedly never expected to be in. "It's been a crazy career," he said after accepting an award for Best Championship Performance. "If any of y'all know my career path, it doesn't make sense. But, I'm here right now." The polarity of Foles' NFL career may be unequaled. How do you go from throwing 27 touchdowns and two interceptions one year to getting traded, then benched, in subsequent seasons? How do you go from arguably the worst start of your professional life, against the Dallas Cowboys in 2013, to throwing a record-setting seven touchdowns your next time out? How do you go from almost retiring to sputtering backup to Super Bowl MVP, outdueling Tom Brady in the largest of moments along the way? And, most importantly moving forward, is there a way to harness the good, and minimize the bad, in order to stabilize and become a dependable, maybe even top-tier starter in this league? Another chapter in The Curious Case of Nick Foles will be submitted Thursday night. He'll start in the 2018 opener against the Atlanta Falcons while Carson Wentz awaits medical clearance to resume play following a multi-ligament knee injury suffered in December. Whether it's a game or two or more before Wentz's return, this is Foles' limited chance to leave a fresh impression on evaluators for 2019. The additional tape could help Foles' bid to land a starring role elsewhere in 2019, and it could also prove to be a most damaging development. Judging off history, there is likely no in-between.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Who thinks Foles will be great, good, decent, or poor in this game? I predict poor to decent. But it could be any of them. 1

whatdrought Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 I think we will see a more conservative, but still good Nick Foles.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 1 minute ago, 26CornerBlitz said: It might be all of them within the same game. Yep. Quite possible, if not likely. I meant for the whole game though, in aggregate.
