In all seriousness, Foles' INT was the product of Wester getting beat off the ball and it was just a fling to avoid the sack and Dede didn't work back to the ball.

Foles indeed was pressured from Wester's guy even though Wester held him, LOL. 
The other factor was the fact that Westbrook and the CB got tangled up when Westbrook tried to make his cut to the outside. 
For a moment it did look like #12 was going to come back toward the L.O.S.  (this is when Foles tried to flick it off balance that direction) however Westbrook ultimately tried to finish his intended route which was toward the sideline. 
It wasn't really so bad. Just flukey.  Should have thrown it away, but you can see why he thought Westbrook was coming back for a second there. 

He was staring him down the whole way, wasn't under real pressure, and the guy he was staring down was blanketed.

That anyone is trying to defend the defend the decision is ridiculous. He's got to be much better in the regular season to make the signing worthwhile. The sad thing is I could easily see another 2017 type season where the defense carries the team and the coaching staff at critical moments feels like it needs to hide the QB like Marrone did against the Patriots in 2017.
