Also, I'm concerned about the defense, since it feels like they've been getting handled the past few weeks, specifically the secondary. Maybe it just looks that way, IDK.

Agreed but they've also gone up against two of the best offenses the past two weeks. Their tackling needs some goddamn work for sure though.

It's not even fun to watch back up quarterbacks win. For me at least. Idk.

It's a shame because that game yesterday was incredibly good.

It's all about showcasing Foles' ability so Howie can flip him for an OT.

The only way this season is still a fun one to remember is if it becomes The Nick Foles redemption tour.


It will not. All has fallen into shadow and doom

best case scenario for non-eagles fans: Foles plays out of his mind for the rest of the season but the eagles lose in conference championship game, leading to a quarterback controversy that carries into the regular season and ultimately destroys team chemistry. the eagles miss the playoffs next year

lol, if Foles plays out of his mind for the rest of this season and into the playoffs he's going to be traded for draft picks so, so quickly

All Foles has to do is play competently and they can trade him for picks. The league is so starved for reliable quarterbacks.

But I’m still holding out hope for a Kaep signing.

gently caress it, all in. Foles is our quaterback. They'll sculpt the playbook around his strengths. They have enough playmakers on offense to get it done. It might not be as flashy and you'll probably see less 4th and short calls, but gently caress it. If Case loving Keenum can do what he's done, then why not Napoleon Dynamite. gently caress it. He's a deliciously average quarterback, but he's our deliciously average quarterback.

Dude it's already December. You realize Kaepernick is an idiot, right? Not because of his political stances, which I agree with, but he's just dumb. There's no way he could step into a new offense and learn more than a few plays at this point.

e: that said, I guess I'd be in favor of it just for the statement it would make, and because the season is probably lost anyway. But I have no illusions that Kaepernick would contribute at all.

Greatest fullback in Polk High history

Re: Kaep

If this was like, week 3, I'd be all about it, but I feel like at this stage it would be too much, too late. Foles knows the offense and has shown in the past he isn't complete poo poo like some of the other QBs that have been trotted out in the league this year. However, I wouldn't mind seeing Kaep brought in as a backup. If Foles gets hurt, the season is absolutely over. But asking for Kaep to be a starter at this moment is too much to ask.

Just curious, putting aside injuries, and assuming the same quarterback, do you think the Giants are better than the Redskins?

I don't.

I realize it's New York and it's one of the greatest cities in the world and everything, but why would any FA quarterback want to play behind that offensive line?

Really though my expectations at this point have gone from Superbowl appearance to probable divisional round bounce or likely conference round embaressment, depending on the opponent.
