What will make him look like a star is if the running game pans out.  Everyone knew that Bortles couldn't handle the pressure of being "clutch" in a close game.  Nick Foles corrects that.  Everyone knew that the Jaguars wanted to win with the run game and a solid defense, and that philosophy will still work with the right quarterback.

Foles is by no means a Tom Brady or Pay-me-a-ton Manning or a Drew Brees.  He's not and never will be an "elite" quarterback, but he's enough to take the team to a whole different level.

Wait.... you don’t think Ertz is a good TE? You don’t think he’s special?

Are you mad that fantasy football has become so prominent and has brought in thousands of new fans? That fantasy analysts are actually some of the best football analysts out there?  Are you upset that the sport you grew up loving is changing before your eyes?
