The rook showed us last week that he can have a decent game but we need to see continue improvement.  Right now he's 1-decent 2-terrible in his starts, so lets make it to .500 today and have a stellar performance.  I'm glad Morty Moron is taking the training wheels off this guy, it time to show if he belong in the driver's seat.  Go Eagles!!!!

I think Foles will continue to progress, but I honestly don't see this team winning more than 1 more game this year. This defense has quit, and I don't know if Foles can win a shootout just yet against the teams remaining on our schedule.

I think he was referring to seeing .500 in terms of foles play not necessarily the team winning. Because I agree with you I don't see another win this year.

Here is all I care about for the future of this team with Foles.

1 - when he comes to the LOS does it APPEAR as though he understands what he is seeing from the defense.
2 - does he appear to change the play correctly a good percentage of the time
3 - does his pocket presence appear to be getting better each game
4 - does he appear to be going through his reads or is he staring down receivers
5 - is his releases pretty much on time.
6 - are the majority of his throws on target
7 - does he know when there is not a play and just throws it away.

What his stats are,, are meaningless to me.

Am I the only one uncomfortable with Marty taking the training wheels off?  I just see the most pass happy game plan yet coming when  I see those words.  Either that or him saying F the short passing game I'm making you throw deep every play.

Well since most of Marty's offenses have been top 10 units I have no concern.

I'm more sold on him after today than I have ever been. He made good decisions and good throws all day, just not enough support around him.
