So, for the millionth time.......is that really a QB ISSUE....or did Lurie/Howiie hire a coach who told them something about his system that doesn't add up?
Guess what the problem with the Eagles IS NOT THE QB OR THE OFFENSE -- LAST YEAR THE PROBLEM WAS AN OFFENSIVE LINE DOWN THE FIRST HALF OF THE SEASON - AND STARTING QB OUT THE SECOND HALF
EAGLES WHEN FOLES IS ON THE FIELD WITH A HEALTHY LINE AND MCCOY / SPROLES RUNNING THE BALL HAVE NO FUCKING PROBLEM SCORING A LOT OF POINTS
TO THE CLUELESS FUCKS ON THIS BOARD PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND THIS

Lots of quarterbacks put up numbers behind great offensive lines with weapons like McCoy and DJax. O-line injuries are a weak excuse. There still were a couple all-pros there last season. Bottom line, you gotta perform behind the line you got.
Not to worry, Foles fans. He'll get a chance to prove his mediocrity next season. No Mariotta.Blue Chip College Football - Coach Your College to the National Championship

Hey, don't kill the messenger, as I have stated, I like Foles, however, all this bickering really doesn't mean a damn thing, unless your real name is Chip Kelly?

No issue, I was just pointing out the article, I guess my take on it is this, I still think MM "may" fall a bit, although I think he may at some point be a great QB, the ONLY system he has legitimate shot at being good in the first year is Kelly's.
It just all depends if a lot of teams are willing to take a flyer at a high draft pick on a guy that may not transition to their system, who knows?
On another note, I still have an uneasy feeling about Wash. announcing this early, before the draft, that RG3 is their starter, it makes me uneasy because it could be a smokescreen. It is almost as Wash. is saying "see don't worry about us, we have our QB" write us off.
They are in same div. and know (as does everyone) that CK wants MM, with some of the shit moves the Littlest Telemarketer has pulled in the past, I just wonder if MM is on the board when they pick if they would grab him, maybe I watch too many conspiracy movies?Last edited by Eagle Road; 02-20-2015, 12:22 PM.

Any team wanting to be a serious contender with a solid FO and coach would go with Foles and strengthen the areas that keep the team from having a serious shot. We really don't know what Chip is thinking but if he thinks MM is the only QB in the world who can successfully run CHIP BALL, it tell you more about a failed system than any QB. it is doomed to be a bust.
This team needs Big time help in critical areas. If they give it all away to get MM and he turns into an RG lll.....Ryan Leaf will have a replacement on the wall of infamy. There is a reason why Oregon QBs don't translate to great Pro QBs. They would be killed if they were asked run the ball and that's what they do.
No way would Chip try to run that INFANTILE oregon offense in the NFL. Let alone with a qb that has accuracy issues, hasn't operated under center, doesnt routinely make more than 1 or two reads even from the shot gun, and has played vs mainly piss poor defenses in the PAC 12.
I bought Chip Kelly the coach that adapts as he progresses not some one trick poney.Last edited by iowaigglefan; 02-20-2015, 01:09 PM.
