@RoobCSN: Jason Avant told me the 22-yard 4th-down conversion with 16 seconds left is not in the playbook. Nick Foles made it up on the spot.
@SheilKapadia: Andy Reid says Nick Foles made the call on the final play, a game-winning touchdown to Jeremy Maclin

We are witnessing the future here folks. We no longer have to draft a QB with our top 5 pick. This thread will be used to keep track of his progression. So 5 years from now, when he has won the city of Philadelphia its first 3 Super Bowl Championships, we can look back and say "Wow, look how far Nicky Foles has come."

Today was the beginning of the legend. Down in the fourth quarter, leads the team back to a last second win. We have rarely seen QB play like that, and I think we will be seeing alot more of it for the next 15 years.







2012 (Rookie Year): *Still in progress*

I think it's a good thread.  This was the greatest year to draft a QB and we got one and he's the new MFL size, has a big arm and is smarter than we've had in awhile.

I have to say though, I was hoping we'd rally and just fall short to make sure we had a top 4 pick.

I hear that he's 7 feet tall.

And the only reason you can't tell is because other players wear height-boosting insoles around him, as not to be embarrassed.

Yep. In the showers he looks down on King Dunlap.

If true, thats fairly impressive.
Foles had a good game today, and imo proved he's worth taking a gamble on for 2013. Lets not go silly yet, but im excited to see the kid behind some OLers that are NFL standard in 2013

[diehardfan]

The rookie took them down the field for two late 4th quarter TD's to win a game on the road. People have the right to go silly for a night.

[Thrive]

Lovin this thread. Hope the kid keeps improving.

Exactly! It amazes me at the people who get all pissy about other people being excited for the win.

I love the "fans" that would rather lose to secure a top 5 pick in a crappy draft.

His piss tastes like champagne and his ish smells like freaking dandellions. All Hail King Foles.

Nick Foles the next Paul Bunyan.

[mike030270]

That's pretty awesome. Although I'm not surprised they weren't in the playbook. That playbook is filled with crap plays. Good job, Foles. Please keep it up

[Cappeeler]

LOL Awesome thread.

we should call him Obi Wan - he's our only hope.

Yep.

967 short pass plays
471 intermediate pass plays
3 deep pass plays
2 run plays (shotgun draw right and shotgun draw left)

Nick Foles has to be a candidate for MVP, this year. The kid is g-d's gift to football.

No, just his gift to us.

Just Woderlicful right there.

[neal_c60]

I understand the Nepalese have changed their word for "enlightenment" to "enFolesment", and the Mayans say his appearance renders their milleniums old prophecy of the end of the world in 2012 null and void.

Relax, he's probably going else where with Reid. Jeff McLane wrote in sunday Inq that Howie loves Chip Kelly. The problem is he runs the QB option offense, no chance he stays here in that system. Vick will probably stay because he is the type of QB that does well in that system. So, if Reid goes to coach another team he will probably give the Eagles a draft pick for Foles.

[PickFoles]

I'm laughing my a** off at this ****.

It was the most basic play in the history of the NFL, and it worked against the WORST PASS DEFENSE IN THE NFL. There's nothing legendary about it. People are acting like it was some amazing trick play that totally fooled the best defense in the league.

Claude Giroux telling his team to watch the first shift, then proceeding to lay out Crosby and score a goal on that shift = legendary

Nick Foles "inventing" a 1 yard pass (that was so basic nobody bothered wasting the printer ink it would take to add it to the playbook) at the end of a meaningless game for a team out of contention = forgettable

Cant stand the Vick nut huggers that just wont let go , IF it was Vick that did it we all know they would want to put his Jersey on Rocky .....  .   I thought it was amazing as well he did that .

[PhillyDan1969]

These threads are getting a little out of hand really!!! Obviously the OP wants to get this "Nick Foles the Legend" thread in now just in case.

Foles played well, well enough to beat a mediocre Tampa Bay Buccaneers team!!! He clearly is qualified enough to be the starter in 2013 and I couldn't be more thrilled because there isn't a franchise QB on this draft in my opinion.

If the new coaching staff rebuilds the Eagles secondary, fortifies the offensive line, designs the offense around the talented Shady McCoy and Bryce Brown while developing Foles in 2013, who knows how great this kid could become!!!
