With Foles making all these pinpoint throws in mini-camp...

The 7 game sample size is the entirety of his 2018, and it is below average for sure.  

Don't forget to add in the other stats for Foles 2018 and Wentz 2018:

Wentz: ypa 7.7, ay/a 7.9 , any/a 6.89
Foles: ypa 7.2, ay/a 7, any/a 6.50  

So yeah other than completion % (which can usually be explain by ypa) and your QBR stat Wentz was easily better. Actually, Nick Foles QBR over the last two regular seasons would have ranked 26th out of 33 qualifying QBs this year, just behind Josh Allen.

Also, "a lot of philly fans think so" is totally incorrect, a minority of Philly fans wanted to let Wentz go and keep Foles. A simple eye test would be enough for most to pick the younger, more dynamic and better QB to stay in Philly, but if you want to go the stats route he wipes the floor with him too.

He will be pretty easily but as fans we need to have a far higher bar than that.
I don't know where these philly fans are coming from, but i haven't met ANY on the Foles was better than wentz train....not yet.  .

On better than Blake, we definitely need a higher bar but thats falling on deaf ears around here.  Its embarrassing to say the least.

I don't know any Eagles fans personally. After the Jags signed Foles though there was plenty of chatter on social media and the fan forums speculating or making statements that their front office had made the wrong choice. You can probably find some if you look for it.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
