:laffo: Nick Foles would rather be the backup in Philly than start in Cleveland.

quote:

Before rejecting the deal, two sources said, the Eagles ran the scenario by Foles, who said he preferred to remain in Philadelphia.

There’s nothing Foles can ever do in his career to top that SB run. May as well bask in it for a season.

Foles could do whatever in business in Philly and make more money than as a franchised Browns starter, which he wouldn't be anyway because they haven't had a consistent starter in god knows how long

Worth noting the reporter is Mike Silver the guy Hue leaks literally everything to. Hue is firing the first shot in his war with another GM. The man wants front office powers to go with being head coach again.

I think that would be the thing that convinces me not to watch the NFL. That and the fact that I'll be watching my Knights going for back to back Natties on Saturdays anyway.

Okay it's mostly the second one. Watching the Knights offense made watching the Panthers a miserable experience by comparison.

Hard to even put into words how stupid this is. I mean even from their perspective, just let it play itself out. It's not like anything came of the first protest and any further kneeling isn't even a big deal. This concept is so fascist, ineffective and out of touch its insane

If you really need an anthem at a game, do it at halftime when the local military units can put on a display and the players for both teams are out of sight.

I just hope this poo poo doesn't carry on to the regular season.

I'm here to watch football and have fun( I'm down with the kneeling), eat bad food, and get drunk.

But Jesus Christ a 15 yard flag. Come on bro.

How about someone take a knee for school shootings. We gonna flag that?

Yeah.

They’re definitely getting serious about the no kneeling thing - you don’t each have to do it for a touchback now.

Do they blow the whistle and throw the flag during the Anthem? Because that would kind of own.

The kneeling rule will be written in the most convoluted and confusing way possible and commentators and pundits will endlessly debate if it was a kneel or not a kneel.
