Yes really.  We'll see.  People are seriously overrating this guy.

I get it, you are gun shy. We all are... The last QB that we had confidence in, real confidence in was Brunell. I am hoping that we finally got it right. It makes sense. I have been watching and wishing the Jags had Foles for years now. The Man can play.

No, I'm not 'gun shy' in the least.  People here have seen bad quarterback play for so long they think they've scored the bestest QB in the world just because he's better than what we've had.

And?  Doug Williams won a Super Bowl MVP.  Mark Rypien won a Super Bowl MVP.

meh... He has a better book of work than those two. I grew up a Redskins fan, so I know those two well. We'll see soon enough. Neither of those guys had a follow up season like Foles did after winning the MVP.

Ronster. Back at it again. QBs who have played better than Foles the last 2 years?

Brees, Mahomes, Rodgers, Rivers, Big Ben, Watson, Goff, Wilson..... Just off the top of my head.

LOL... none of those guys have accomplished what Foles has the last 2 years. A SuperBowl MVP as a backup, then almost duplicating the same thing the very next year as again, A BACKUP... good grief, get a grip...

Five of those guys are going to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  

Foles is not even in the top 10 highest paid QBs.  Wait a couple of years and he won't even be in the top 15.

Oh well, I for one am very excited about this pickup. The Jags have a top 5 defense and now a QB that can throw the ball more than 5 yards down the field and doesn't fold like a cheap suit. HELL YA!!!

Also just two years removed from having the number 1 running game in the league. I don't think they'll really be able to get back to *that* level but there is potential there and having a true one-two punch will help out both attacks.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

You asked who has played better. There are a fair amount of QBs who have played better. If winning a SB is the only barometer then of course your logic is sound. However, it's not the only one and makes no sense. You wouldn't trade Foles for Rodgers, Mahomes, Rivers, or Wilson?

Wilson or Rivers? Hell no!! And Rodgers is getting old.... so, I stick with Foles... You love being negative. Good Grief.

Being negative or being realistic?

If you truly believe Foles is better than Rodgers, Wilson or Rivers then I can't help you.

I also like the Foles signing but I can also admit that there are numerous QBs out there who are better than him.

It was nice seeing the big "Welcome to Duuuuuuval Nick Foles" on the jumbotron down at the stadium this morning.

I am cautiously optimistic, and I hope you are right.

Nothing like supporting your players Marty, You may be right but at this point, you should be supporting Foles.  I give Philly fans credit when Wentz went down they got behind Foles and won the Superbowl.  
It's not being a homer supporting your players and team until they no longer deserve that support. The man has not played one down for the Jaguars and you throw him under the bus!

You can support Foles and at the same time feel like it may not be the right move for the team.

Anyone else notice the resemblance of Foles to Fools?
