Our defense should still be formidable, but I think we're going to have to ask the QB to win quite a bit next year. We have major question marks at safety and linebacker, and our dline depth is gone. I really don't think plugging in Foles and telling him not to screw it up is going to win us a super bowl.

Fitzpatrick as an interim quarterback and draft Murry or Daniel Jones for a future starter. Fitz will not break the bank and I believe he is a better QB than Foles.  Murry has developed the ability to move out of the pocket to compensate for his hight to provide downfield vision and avoid d lineman from batting down the ball. He looks to pass the ball downfield and has the option to run the ball if coverage dictates. The only question is can he take the punishment of an NFL quarterback. Maybe not ten years ago but with the rules protecting the quarterback in today's game he has a much better chance for a long career in the NFL.  I see Foles as the second coming of Cousins and a great way to destroy any cap room for the future.
