The whole plan for 2015-2016 depends on the Oline

Bradford, Murray...

Let's not worry about an old line with NO guards. You just can't make this stuff up.

cranberry juice can help with that

And we need a QB - Sanchez doesn't cut it.
Watch - trading Foles will be as bad as when they traded Sonny Jurgensen away.
Bradford will not survive, although we have to hope he does.

I have the utmost faith in this statement being not true.

Somewhere a Rams fan is crying that trading away Bradford will be as bad as when they traded Van Brocklin/Gabriel/Jaworski away.

Seriously though, did you actually watch Nick Foles play? The guy is a backup. You need to get over him.

[Mt Iggle]

I hope you are right.
Bradford is better than Foles IF he stays healthy, which look like poor odds.

[Mt Iggle]

Yes, he is gone. I just worry about a guy who had 2 torn acl's.
It's just a health bet. I see Sanchez playing the 1st half of the season ,then Bradford's in.
And we all have seen why the Jets got rid of Sanchez.

On what planet is Bradford better than Foles in any way?

Bradford's career Total QBR is a horrific 40.7 on a scale of 1-100

Nick Foles in 2014 (supposedly a "bad" year) still had a very solid 62.2 Total QBR which ranked 13th in the league

Nick Foles in 2013 had a 69.0 Total QBR, which ranked 4th in the league

http://espn.go.com/nfl/qbr/_/year/2013


The 2 guys are on different tiers...that is, Bradford is at least one tier below Foles as a QB.

Sam Bradford Total QBR by year



2010: 38.2

2011: 26.2

2012: 50.3

2013: 48.0

Career: 40.7


This is on a scale where 50 = average QB play


Sam Bradford is a below-average NFL QB.

So apparently you've never watched Sam Bradford play. Bradford never makes any big-time throws to win you a game. There's a reason why he's a career loser who can't win games. Foles has made a ton of clutch throws when the situation called for it, and has the W-L record in 2013 and 2014 to back that up.

The Rams absolutely fleeced you in that trade.

Oh good now we have Evan Mathis bleeding hearts

Bwah!

[Sect 236]

If Bradford never plays a down for the Eagles, we still won't be looking at Foles as Sonny 2.0

Foles has the same odds at becoming a HOF QB as you and I do.

Nah, the guy is a greedy slob, but he is a quality OG in this league. There are none that exist in Philadelphia.

So apparently you've never watched Sam Bradford play. Bradford never makes any big-time throws to win you a game.

Check out the Youtube video of all of his throws over 15 yards. He probably had more drops than uncatchable balls I was impressed. He also moved well in the pocket. I think Bradford will be okay or better in this offense as long as the O Line holds up.

And we need a QB - Sanchez doesn't cut it.

Supposedly his arm is back to full strength. That seemed to be a limitation last year and he was good enough to get Ws vs below average teams. The first third of the season is not terribly tough. However a home loss to Dallas could cost them the NFC East.

Watch - trading Foles will be as bad as when they traded Sonny Jurgensen away.

: ) Wasn't he traded in part because he liked to drink & party?

I like Foles but he does not have a good track record of playing well behind patchwork O Lines. The Rams' O Line will likely be too young to be good this year. It will be interesting to see how well he does in the next couple of years as the young Ram's offense comes together.

Foles was amazing in many ways in 2013. I once thought he was just getting his numbers padded because teams played bend-but-not-break due to DJax. However, Foles' Red Zone stats were also extraordinary in 13. I don't see him being a complete bust if he has decent talent around him. He was just too good in 2013
