Eagles were able to get the Saints to play the type of game that they could win, they just couldn't close it out. |

That may have been Foles' last game as an Eagle. |

There will be a couple of teams that will break open the checkbook for Foles. |

3-1 again this week, as I foolishly picked the Chargers. The Charger coaching staff's lack of adjusting on defense to what was clearly happening is mind-boggling to me, but they just weren't the better team out there. (Still, I have no idea how you continue to stay in a soft zone against a passer like Tom Brady. It was so easy it was genuinely shocking.)
I thought the Eagles were going to pull the upset after Lutz missed the FG. Oh, Alshon.
If the Jaguars call the Eagles and offer Jalen Ramsey and the #7 overall pick, are you tempted if you're Howie Roseman? What if it's #7 overall and at least 1 other 1st round pick, and perhaps another 2nd or a 3rd thrown in? I think it would be at least something to strongly consider. This is assuming that Foles would sign back as a free agent. I think that it's not just as simple as thinking that Wentz will get back and be fine. Does he not have a durability question, at this point? |

Who's winning the SB? I'd love to see a Rams vs Chiefs Super Bowl. And also who is the favorite to win the regular season MVP? |

I thought the Chargers had a real shot at winning and thought it was 50-50. And I saw plenty of people pick the Chargers to win. The Patriots looked much more beatable this season and I thought the Chargers were the better, more talented team coming into this. The Chargers didn’t look like chokers this season and I had never seen the Patriots offense get dominated as often as they had this season (unless you go back to literally at least a decade). This wasn’t the same, consistent Patriots team that was 14-2 and 13-3 the last couple of seasons.
And I’m still confused by the Chargers defensive game plan. They just let New England continue to pick them apart. Maybe the Chargers did them a favor by beating the Ravens; they had a better defense and would have been better prepared to deal with the cold.
I am shocked the Chargers put up that weak of a performance. I thought they would at least look tougher in a loss. |

Chargers coaches did their gameplan on what they saw in the regular season from the Pats. Since the Pats got a bye week, that allowed them to implement new schemes and plays the defense has never seen before also with some rest. In other words, its a testament on how good and smart the NE coaches are. The in-game adjustments were pitiful however. The Chargers had no answer to Brady. Still a great season for the Chargers. |

If you were the Eagles GM would you try to keep Foles as a backup QB or would you move him while he has some trade value. Do you think he's a franchise QB? _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I doubt it....but I do think there is a chance he may be. At a minimum, I think he is better than many starting QB's in the NFL, and would be a real upgrade for several teams. |

Where would he fit best? How about staying in the division, Washington (don't like the Redskins moniker and I'm not going to debate the reason) or Giants? _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

The Saints won the 2009 Super Bowl with a 13-3 record, losing to Tampa Bay, Dallas and Carolina. This year the Saints have a 13-3 record losing to Tampa Bay, Dallas and Carolina. History repeating itself? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

and that is the issue....go to the NFL and get drafted in the 1st Round....guaranteed millions and he is in the league next season. Take the baseball route, and he is riding buses and staying at economy hotels for at least 2-4 years hoping to not get injured and get a call up.....with literally none of it within his control. |

I thought the Chargers would beat the Patriots and then collapse in the AFC title game. That would be the most excruciating scenario for Chargers fans. That’s what the Chargers do, right? |

He’d get a load of money upfront from the A’s, too. I guess this makes sense if it’s what he wants to do, but I’d pick the option that didn’t involve getting drilled by pass rushers. |
