Quote:Fast foward to April 2014. If the Jags blow their 1st round pick will you look back and proclaim the Jags should have lost all their games to get the number 1, plus use that as leverage to gain more picks?

 

It may play out that way to where these wins prove futile. Time will tell. Gotta hit with whatever pick they get. 

 

Quote:While Foles built on his success as a senior, he would have been drafted even higher as a junior due to his upside, much like our own Blaine Gabbert.

 

It's a good lesson on why staying in school isn't necessarily a bad idea.

 

As for "game manager", you're aware Foles has already eclipsed Garrard's excellent 2007 season in the half season he's played, don't you?  And that he's only in his 2nd full season?  I know that doesn't fit your "Head coach is the most important" agenda that you've been pushing here for years, but these are the facts:

 

FACTS

 

Nick Foles' performance is one of the key reasons the Eagles are a couple wins away from a playoff berth.  The guy's good.  You were wrong about him at the beginning of the year, and you're wrong about him now.

 

I am fully aware of Nick Foles' NFL stats, not sure what you think you are accomplishing by posting those. 

 

People who analyze this stuff for a living (Greg Cosell) pretty much echo's the game manager sentiment that I have brought forth regarding Foles. He was just on Colin Cowherd's show about 10 minutes ago and spoke that in his film breakdown, its clear that whats going on in Philly is more about a very well coached team that is giving Foles some designed chances to make big plays as opposed to  Foles just being some stud QB.
