Our current group of QB's are not the group it will take to run Chip's offense.

And don't tell me that he's going to tailor his offense to his personnel.  Chip's offense is good for one reason, and that's because is built on the read-option.  I look for the Eagles to draft EJ Manual at some point in this draft (not #4, maybe 2nd round or trade back in the 1st).  

If it's gonna work, you better bring in the right horses.

Colin didn't run the ball today. Niners are going to the Super Bowl because of their defense, off line, running back, and te. Nick Foles could have run that offense today.

Sorry, watch the three touchdown runs. It wouldn't have happened with Smith/Foles/RandomStiff at QB because the DE had to respect Kapp with the read option.

You can win without a QB running the ball (On that note Kaepernick is a QB that CAN run not a Running QB)
The ability to complete a high % of passes is very important (Short passes or deep passes)

The running game is EXTREMELY important still - Thought Falcons struggled without Turner, Niners so good in the redzone with the running game.
Multiple running backs can also be extremely effective.

Defense still wins games (See the second half today)

Lastly - TURNOVERS LOSE GAMES.

Matt Ryan Interception and the fumble were huge in my opinion. Falcons win without them.

There is no way they would have to honor N Foles the way they were forced to honor Colin K.  the threat of him running forces people to stay home and watch him...the threat is more important than the running when the threat is LEGIT.....

Today proved Turnovers lose games! On that note, Foles threw an interception on 1.9% of his passes!

This. Just because Kapp didn't keep it on the read/option, doesn't mean the read/option wasn't effective. And you can't run an effective read/option with Foles.

The threat of CK running opened up the running game

Just watch Brady and you will see WHAT wins championships time after time ..it wont be the read option over and over garenteed.

Foles can run Brady's systen EASY lets see if Kelly is smart enough to figure that out and play real football.

Difference between Kaepernick/Wilson and RGIII is intelligence. Kaepernick/Wilson can run effectively while limiting hits. RGIII is too dumb to pull that off.

Kaepernick can also slide. RG3 hasn't been and has been leaning towards the Vick future
