The case for Nick Foles

You don't have to get so defensive on the matter. I watched alot of him coming out last year, cause I thought he Chiefs might draft him.

Alright. I'm sorry about the defensive stuff. Its Not even that I love Foles, I get more defensive with what seems like players getting dismissed because they aren't Geno Smith. I think some here are being unfair to the new regime, that if they don't see Geno as the answer, or think there's more than one way to solve the QN situation, that they're SP RC 2.0.

I didnt think much of Foles coming out, but his play, in what I consider almost a no win situation last year impressed me.

Thats fine. But it's not just Geno Smith. Yeah there are a few around here who are all Geno. But it's more the QB spot.


Getting a retread instead of drafting a QB in the first round like we've always talked about on there have some people pretty pissed, which I can't say I don't understand either.

And if they do decide to go with Foles, there are some similarities to the Cassel situation. Not as much with the player, but the situation.

After watching 3 QB's in a row with horrid accuracy I'm sure that's the one thing I'm looking for.

The team will make its decision but I want the most intelligent and accurate guy out there...

It's not unfair to the new regime. They just happen to be heading up the franchise that some of us have been following for 20-30 years.

It may not be fair but it's human nature - they now own the sins of the past, it comes with the job.

That's fine. I'm just not going to make them pay for the sins of the past before the season starts.

I wouldn't either if I could help it.

I'm just too jaded, unfortunately.

I'm done implicitly trusting anyone.
