OT: Nick Foles to Jax

[LJRomanoff]

Eagles’ Nick Foles ’bound for Jacksonville’ report says; Super Bowl star can’t sign until March 13

I guess this leads to the obvious question, are the Jaguars now the Pats biggest contenders for the AFC crown?

Nah. Still the Chiefs. Possibly the Colts also depending on what they do with all their free cap space.

 

[50-yard-line]

Gotta win that Division first... You can argue all 4 teams are play off contenders

And playing the Colts, Texans, and Titans 2x each will make it harder to get home field.

 

[maust]

Hmmmmm....

Not sure how I feel about this yet.

Understood. While he played well under Pederson, there's a reason he was a backup. Still, some QB is better than none QB

 

[Huckleberry1]

I’m a little doubtful Foles will be able to catch lightning again outside of Philly, but we’ll see.

I agree, I think Pederson and his system fit Foles perfectly, and he will have a very difficult time replicating his short run of success in Jacksonville with Marrone. And I love how much money the Jags are going to have tied up at QB.

 

[PatsFan2]

I would love Blake Bortles here behind Brady for Two maybe three years. Would teach him a thing or two.

 

[PatsFan2]

All Nick Foles do is wins... he reminds me of the ghost of Brady's past.

Good for us the ghost of Brady present is better. Is it September yet I want to see the ghost of Brady future!

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Just glad this hurts the Colts.

 

[Simpelton]

I'm relieved. I was afraid he'd sign in MIA. Foles to the Dolphins could have been scary for us.

That’s a reach. He’s done nothing outside Philly and had one good year as a backup.

Let’s see him with another full year as a starter.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I think people are overrating Foles. Hes competent and capable. He is not an All Pro

They are still a .500 team

 

[Family]

I wonder about Foles as a full season starter.

He's never started more than 11 games in a year and was happy to be a backup before the money became ridiculous. He just looks so frail.

 

[SammyBlueCat]

In six whole months every team will be 0-0

Hard to call this locked up when the legal tampering period hasn’t even started and the reporting says he is taking under market money because Jax is the only interested team.
Educated guess at this point.

 

[Vatahala]

Does this mean Coughlin will never reunite with Eli?

Well he has good company in glass Joe Wentz.

 

[Ring 6]

Would you?

 

[Vatahala]

Would you?

No, but I was kind of hoping Jax would take a chance admist great fanfare and then have Eli fail miserably.

Yep, the 3 Lombardi’s in the last 5 years has really been tough to live with.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Does this mean Coughlin will never reunite with Eli?

Unfortunately yes. And no one else is going to take him.
