Honestly I don't have a problem with a guy like Flacco coming in as the veteran backup, but I would prefer if they signed Foles, assuming he gets cut.

Foles won't get cut, the Bears would take on a larger cap hit and wouldn't save any money.

Trading for him isn't wise either. He's expensive, it'd be a waste of a draft pick and would be doing whichever young QB be it Hurts or a QB at 6 no favors to have the fanbase calling for a washed Foles to play anytime the young QB struggles.

I like Hurts potential going forward. Incredible work ethic and leadership qualities. Point is though that if the Eagles feel there is a QB there at 6 that they view as a better option then they at least have that option. They are in a better position than the Patriots due to both that #6 pick and Hurts when it comes to QB in 2021 going forward.
If Hurts is so good why even think about a QB at 6?

Do you not see how stupid your statement is?

Foles' $4M base salary for 2021 is guaranteed so it's unlikely he'd be cut. The future cap hit is only $2.67M which wouldn't stop a team from cutting a player. The fan base point would definitely factor into any possible trade discussion.

There was a lot of throw aways when nothing was there. And yeah they did lose because the Eagles are a bad team and the Cardinals were a pretty decent team last season and that's a tough place to win. In fact Eagles have yet to ever win that stadium. B Hurts in only his second start though he kept them in the game in what turned out to be a passing shootout and took it right down the wire and gave them a shot to win it.

If you just want to try to troll me and what not I don't really have interest but if you want to actually discuss the we can talk
Hurts sucks. Go

Because rookie QB's never get better, especially after just 4 games?

LOL.
Never said that did I. More often than not they are worse in year 2, and with Hurts he's regressed in college, and I think he'll regress in the NFL too.

Good move by the Eagles. Keeps them away from drafting a QB at #6.

I think if the Eagles give him a shot and Sirianni is a competent play caller that he will then establish himself as the 2nd best QB in the division.

Bears would take on a dead cap hit of $10,333,334 if they cut Foles.

Tough to be 2nd best QB in the division without having playmakers.
