Edit to add: and they declined Mitch's 5th year option meaning he was never their long term solution thus bringing in Foles so not sure what our point isLast edited by Spartan92; 09-05-2020, 01:42 PM.

Well ... he was certainly the quarterback for a Super Bowl winner against a team with Brady at QB ... and won't ever pay for a drink in a bar that I'm in ... but I'm not sure I'd say he "beat out" the guy who threw for over 500 yards in that Super Bowl.
EDIT TO ADD: BUT I UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM.

If you want to nitpick, they had the same number of completions, same number of turnovers and same number of passing TD's although Foles also caught a TD in one of the greatest plays in SB history. Oh yeah, Foles also WON THE GAME. I suppose Pats fans everywhere are taking solace in the fact that Brady threw for more yards. C'mon man!!!
It cracks me up when fans of a team get their briefs in a bunch over someone else not blindly sucking the hometown dick.
If you had said that you don't give a fuck if Foles can't beat out Minchew or Trubisky because he won the Super Bowl for the Eagles ... fine ... neither do I.
But suggesting that he "beat out" a guy with six total rings who threw for 500 yards in the same game, simply because the other guys' team lost that game, is horse shit and you know it.
And my point has nothing to do with Pats fans taking solace either ... but I'm pretty sure you know that also.
EDITED TO ADD: And if you think about it ... my statement about it being unfair to single out Brady as who Foles "beat out" in that game is actually a compliment to Foles.Last edited by slag; 09-07-2020, 01:11 PM.Obscenity is the last refuge of an inarticulate motherfucker.

2. I addressed his 500 passing yards by pointing out stats that, IMO, paint a picture of two pretty even performances. I'll break the tie with the guy who was more clutch and won the game. You apparently think that is a very unreasonable position, which confuses me.

Also, the Ealges had the 5th overall defense per DVOA. #1 Rushing/#8 Passing defense. Patriots had the 31st ranked defense. 23rd against the run and 30th against the pass.
