Now, Wentz ultimately went to Indianapolis. But those talks have been ongoing, they’re in place, all they would have to do this week is revive them.

Speculation

Trading for Foles was a colossal mistake

It didn't work out, but far from a colossal mistake. With every decision comes risk. Nothing is a given. The trade only costs us a 4th round pick. We only paid Foles 8 mil a year, a mere 3 mil more than Chase Daniel. If Mitch worked out and pushed him to be better (which it did toward the end of the year) then good. If not oh well. The penalty for Foles. not working out is minimal. We are going to get some compensation back and try someone else out.

And we still don't know iif it was solely that Foles was really bad or if Nagy, Lazor, and/or the OLine were more responsible. But in the least it gave us clarity that Nagy needed to move off of playcalling.

He also describes his tiny wiener as colossal when talking to bots in Tinder.

The colossal failure of Foles was never the draft capital. It was settling for him as the insurance policy or the QB that would be an improvement over Trubisky. The whole fucking league knows he sucks but Pace still traded for him. Anyone with any sort of football intelligence knew he sucked but for some reason Bears fans/Pace thought he would be a good addition because "he knew the system."

I hope he never plays a snap for this team again. He is a giant fucking turd. That's it. End thread.

fwiw, Ben Albright has been beating the 'Foles to Denver' drum for weeks. Flaccid Dick Nick should be easier to trade now with the Bears coughing up another four mil of his contract today.

Foles got replaced too many times to be anything other than a back-up. No one is going to Trade us for him , EXCEPT, Philly has fond memories....Sooooo.

Ask for a 6th (again hoping to get all of them) and run.....

If the Bears could get a 6th plus the fact that they get to unload his salary, Pace better take it.

I think it is too late to off load the salary, so now it is just about making a place in the QB room.

Foles is gonna coach the Eagles one day. He might legit become an actual eagle at some point.

ps, Andy Dalton is about to get Glennon’d

That city absolutely loves him. The management knows that the meatball fans(who are the worst in the league, btw) would eat it up if foles came back.

Guy is basically their version of jim mcmahon. A pretty bad nfl qb who won a superbowl one year and now is a legend. Hopefully eagles fans dont have to look back 35 years and say that foles was their last "good" qb.

It's amazing what all major sports players make especially NBA and MLB. I feel bad for NHL players who take an absolute beating but i think like $7-$8 mil per year is really good for them.
