Foles is on a lucky run

[Diggle]

some of those noodle-armed hail marys are gonna get picked soon enough. Every deep ball the guy throws is a prayer.

[Ellsworth]

But they're accurate prayers.


I need to hear what Marcus Vick's take is on it! Has Mike paid Marcus's cellphone bill so he can tweet his take? I'm dying to hear it.

i follow him and he hasn't posted anything yet. he actually said something in support of foles last week...i think...unless his phone got hacked again.

Somebody asked him how he thinks Foles is playing and he said after a 7td game he needs to bounce back

[Sect 236]

Haven't you heard? Foles throws the ball short on purpose. He knew the two Packers defenders would pop the ball up in the air perfectly for DeSean.

Drew Brees throws short passes sometimes so clearly Foles is the next Brees.

In all honesty, the kid has looked good the past few weeks, I still don't think he's the future, but he'll have the stretch run to prove that or not. However, one thing is for sure...his arm strength is poop.

[TRENT]

So you are saying Foles is the next Sheli Manning?

going to have to agree with you here...its going to happen..but hey its like a good Punt!

[Melchior]

It was windy.

That's exactly the kind of deep throw that used to come from Favre in his heyday.

and he did have a lot of them intercepted. More were completed, though. But the main thing is that those floaters weren't the mainstay of his game.
Just a part of it. A similar thing could be said of Foles.

[Maniac]

You're wasting your time. It's like trying to talk sense to love-struck teenagers. Doesn't work.

[Maniac]

Lord Foles!

He's Favre, Brees and Brady rolled up in one.

[Birdwatcher]

Look he is a rookie for the most part

Lord Foles!

He's Favre, Brees and Brady rolled up in one.

doesn't even have 16 starts. But he is doing things that have never been done, even by a rookie. If this is a fluke, or luck, then the kid is the luckiest MF in the world. I remember klob and hoying, a couple, maybe three good games and then crash and burn. but foles just seems to get better as he goes, yeah he wasn't as sharp in Lambeau, but he got us 27 points and not many do that. Aaron Rogers isn't on the D BTW.

Now I see stats like this and I scratch my head:

He’s the first quarterback in NFL history with a passer rating of 149 or higher in consecutive games. His 16 touchdown passes this year are second-most in NFL history by a quarterback before throwing an interception.

He has the best interception ratio in NFL history. His passer ratings of 158.3 and 149.3 the last two weeks are the highest ever recorded against the Raiders in Oakland and the Packers in Green Bay.

His 132.5 passer rating is highest in the NFL this year, and his 97.2 career rating is third-highest in NFL history among quarterbacks who’ve thrown at least 400 passes.


again, if this is luck I want more of it. I'm rooting for this kid, and rooting that Chip keeps him if he keeps playing like this. It's still early, but one thing I know is that he seems like the kind of guy I would like to lead my team. No ego ala Johnny Football, just a hard working player who does his best to be the best at what he does. This is the kind of guy who eventually can lead a locker room, unlike another QB we remember well.

[ashaman]

Even Brady sux when he doesn't have his favorite big target to throw to. Foles targets are a midget WR and a WR that nobody think can even make the team!

So you're not happy that eagles have a shot at division and Foles is setting all time records for beginning a career?

What's your point with all the negativity? This isn't the time or place for it. Can't you just enjoy it? I seriously don't understand the constant chip and Foles bashing from you. Especially with eagles tied for first.

[CbEagle]

Its simple, a few people on here basically guaranteed this team and coach would crash and burn quickly. They have staked everything on that premise, now that the team and coach seem to be turning things around they are pigeonholed into their beliefs and cannot back track without looking like total asshats. So they actively root for failure, quite maddening indeed, when all they had to say is they were wrong.

[schuylkilli_igg]

Because he is Anthony Lite,

all some people know in life is bitching and moaning.
