For me it just confirms what my eyes tell me. Foles completion percentage is more about throwing short than superb accuracy or qb play.

Don’t let the philly run blind you.

It's easy to figure out when people actually watch the games and not just the highlights.  Foles was never a light it up type of QB and won a SB because of his teammates and coaching staff.  Playing a average D in the big game also helped.  There are fans who look at stats and only watch games that their team plays; then there are fans that watch alot of teams play and see the difference in those teams.  There are a ton of mediocre QBs in this league but we only complain about ours, as we should.  A fan can hate their roster but outside of a few stacked Offenses and Defenses around the league, there are plenty of Meh situations.  Fans gonna fan, just in different ways.
