The stage is set for Mitch to be the prodigal son and get his last hurrah in the playoffs.
With this line, 10 more games is highly dangerous for Foles, and despite the coming losing streak...the finish is soft enough to contend for that 7 seed.
Foles biggest issue to finish the season might even be that he didn't show enough when he had the chance, and now faces a little gauntlet that could see the Bears at .500 and Nagy panik again.
Does he go back to Mitch? Does he wait for injury? Is Mitch learning from Foles on the bench, maybe more than he would have from games? I'd tell him to stay ready, this season is far from over.
Foles has exposed the line, and it might actually be Mitch who is better without one when winter sets and soft Soldier Field rears up.
I guess we will have healthy grass for once without concerts and the like.
