Is that the only complete playoff streak with over 100 QB rating?
I don't know the formula, but his rating was 106.1 for the super bowl. (per http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2232 ... r-bowl-lii" target="_blank)

not sure if the run is record setting or not

I know it isn’t something that should be discussed today but what the hell do the Eagles do next year at QB?

Pick 1 of them, and get something really really good in exchange for the other 1.

They are of course sticking with Wentz but probably hold onto Foles in case the former isn't ready week 1. Foles is at peak value right now, though.

They would probably be smart to trade Foles for a high pick or two.

He’s passed we’re on a wire tonight, but oh those measurables...

That’s why they play the games. Foles deserves to be a starter. He’s earned it.

While the Eagles just witnessed the importance of having an elite backup QB, they could be more enticed to cash in on Foles' sudden popularity and earn compensation for him this offseason.

Given the caveat in Foles' contract, his future seems fairly simple: He likely won't be in an Eagles uniform next season. Where he ends up is a question, but the Cardinals seem like a perfect solution. Arizona is a veteran team, and assuming Larry Fitzgerald does return next season, it has the offensive weapons to contend. 8-)

Hmmm....


Though Foles signed a five-year deal with the Eagles before the 2016 season, his contract becomes void if he's still on the roster in February 2019.

Since it's not a given that Wentz will be ready by opening day they should keep him.

If I were the Eagles GM, keep Foles unless you can get a first or second round pick for him. If you can trade Foles and sign a good backup for less like a Hoyer (know he is signed with NE next year) or whoever Minnesota doesnt keep.

I am not trying to be a hater here but besides Foles there are two other backups including #2 behind Foles. Not the best stat to take away from.

That said trade for Foles Cardinals please

It sure as hell is.

I've not spoken to one person yet today (who has even the smallest interest in sports) that hasn't glowingly and pridefully mentioned Foles and the amazing job he did leading the eagles to win the super bowl.

Love it. commented in the foles thread in the main football forum....but I really do love how pederson has to stare at him for a couple seconds...trying to decide if foles is crazy or a mad genius for asking for the philly special.

Except they are now in the unenviable position of having to turn down next year’s team option. He’s such a good guy though that maybe he’ll renegotiate and save them the embarrassment.

The way the eagles have treated nick is why pro sports largely suck. Used to be if you where the face of and organ yak. And a winner it was your team. Now everyone is a commodity. Brady with the patriots might be an end of an era..

He'll renegotiate again, get more guaranteed money, and hang around.
