The point he's making is not about the stat or about 2018. 

The question is: Can DeFilippo and the Jags build and run an offense that will cater to Foles ability to succeed running those types of quick-hit plays?  

We don't know yet. And we probably won't know until September.

So we just paid 22 mil a year for a hope and dream and di t even have the players around the dream for it to come to fruition.  If that's not stupid to yall then idk

2023 and still counting.....SB will finally be ours soon enough.

Considering #9 is currently in use by our punter, the bigger questions are whether Foles wants #9, and whether Cook is willing to sell it, and at what price?

Trade #7 and both 3rd rounders for OBJ.

Not to mention he is also a Pro Bowl MVP.  How many players have won a SB MVP and a Pro Bowl MVP?

Pro Bowl MVP.  LOL.  What a joke.  As if that's something big to hang your hat on.  A glorified two-hand touch game.

I would.  The former SB MVP needs playmakers.

Aye aye aye.  I genuinely come here for the shock value. Any idea how many players we'd have to cut to get OBJ on the roster?

I wouldn't do that.

It would only leave one pick in the top 3 rounds with which to fix the OL to say nothing of wrecking the salary structure of the team.

You must not have been here when Gene was here.

In no way is that a Gene Smith move.

By signing Foles, you are going all in to win now. That’s obvious. You can’t “win now” with the weapons around Foles so they need to upgrade them. What better way to upgrade them than with the best WR in the game. OBJ continually destroys man coverage. More so than AB. In fact in 2018, OBJ set a record for beating man coverage 80% of the time. His only issue is that he has a QB who can’t get him the ball.

Trade the picks for OBJ. In the 2nd round draft a guard or TE.

Honestly I don't think the weapons are THAT far away. Aside from TE of course, add one more WR. The hard part with our WRs is something I heard yesterday: most of these guys on our roster have only had Bortles as their NFL QB. Take Lee for example, how often did he have to slow down/adjust routes just to try and catch an inaccurate pass from Blake? With an accurate QB, who knows what step these guys could take.

I think we'll see that our skill positions are a better than we thought.

I hate remembering the 17 season especially knowing the league wanted an air it out fest for the SB instead of a low scoring defensive game ala THIS YEAR AT THAT.   Watching Foles and Brady chunk it downfield against no defense was fun to some I guess.  Arguing those stats to prove your point just makes me puke as a JAGS fan.  Straight up

I don’t disagree really with what you’re saying.

I think Chark and Westbrook benefit the most from the Foles signing. However we are still banking on two unproven guys and then an overrated Lee to come back fully healthy.

My OBJ trade idea is really about winning now because that’s clear by the signing of Foles. If people don’t like giving away the 2 thirds, how about this years first and next years first? If the Jags don’t make the playoffs this year, it’s a colossal failure.
