I'm not really a negative person, but this offense stinks until proven otherwise. We have 17 points in three games. Yeah I know, it's preseason. But they should be a bit more functional than this. Here's to hoping they leave me scratching my head come week one.

It's basically been a Bortles (yup because most people blame him for everything, so why stop now) lead Offense, but with more movement presnap and a slightly quicker release. Foles tried to get Westbrook killed, just like Bortles liked to do with Hurns. It was almost identical, besides Foles release being a little quicker. Still bad for the most part on Offense.

Foles INT was a classic Bortles throw, yet nobody is ripping him for it, like they'd be ripping Bortles. It was a awful throw/INT.

Yea Foles had a decent throw to a basically wide open Westbrook in the endzone for a TD. I could have made that throw and surely Bortles could have as well.

Other than that, it was a bunch of dump off passes, which any QB could do. Yea maybe it's just the preseason, but all we heard about all camp was how great Foles' deep ball is and they didn't even try it once.

The Dolphins are projected to be a terrible team this year and their backups destroyed ours. As well as the previous two teams we faced. We need to pray for another unreal healthy season with little injuries.

I believe our 1's on Defense will be just fine, but this starting Offense doesn't instill much confidence, even when/if healthy. Doesn't look like much changed, even with a new QB/OC.

Comparing Foles to Bortles is nothing short of foolish. I Loved Blake, still do. But We've moved on to a better QB and a much more natural thrower of the football. Foles may be a B- QB at best, but he's a much more natural QB than Blake ever was. ALl we need him to be is slightly above average and we're pretty much a lock for winning anywhere from 8 to 11 games.
