I fondly remember Preseason game 3 when people were openly insisting that Alex Mcgough should be the back up because GM15 was just another Tanner Lee but man can that Alex kid move the offense!

Hell, i even liked Alex more than GM during preseason but that was a mirage.

You can be optimistic, hopeful and eager but at the same time understand Foles is a stop gap for a real franchise QB.

Exactly.  And that was my point.  1995 has been saying that people saw Foles as some sort of 'savior'.  I saw that from very few people.  The vast majority of people saw Foles as an upgrade to Bortles (and how could you not see that?) and were hopeful.  There were a very few people that were bringing up that lame Super Bowl MVP baloney and saw him as some sort of QB messiah.  I never wanted them to make a play for Foles and wanted them to draft a QB and pretty much blow off this season.

Don't twist my words because you are wrong.  I said people felt like Foles would take us over the hump and were on the Foles train and wanted a new QB to lead the team.  You know, the fans that felt like thats the main piece we needed to make a run at the playoffs again.  I did say Savior before, basically saving us from a rebuild and staff changes that i still feel are needed.  If you stop exaggerating what im saying then you'll see your wrong but that takes admittance of error.  The whole MVP thing is just what some on here use as a reason for him being anything more than an average journeyman QB and want to justify his salary.  Now by all means, continue your fight.
