Jaguars Expected to Sign Nick Foles

Nick Foles isnt the best talent ever or anything but he is clutch. If the Jags talent falls apart for whatever reason then Foles isnt good enough to lift them up but if the Jags talent is there then they could win a Super Bowl with him.

Better than bortles

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Better than bortles

Can't dispute this.

 

[Ojb81]

i think they already are a playoff caliber team, but with foles, absolutely, yes.

 

[Dolemite censored]

Depends on how good the offensive scheme/coaching is, and how well they can run and pass protect.

Too many variables and unknowns as well as unknown variables.

Eagle fans realizing Foles isnt there to save their season once again

 

[redseat]

It's amazing how far this guy has gone.. Dude was basically out of football, came back.. kicked ass, Won a Super Bowl and now he is a hot commodity... Yes, the Jaguars are a play-off contender now

Is their offense similar to philly's?

If not, they'll have to tinker with it to suit Foles strengths.

They hired John DeFillipo, who worked with Foles in Philly, to be the OC. I'm sure the offense will be tailored for Foles.

Now..........I remember that.

Thanks.

Absolutely With Coughlin running the show, a healthy Fournette chugging the rock, A beast in Campbell and Jackson, Bouye and Ramsey just needs to learn to shut his mouth and not think he can judge who and who are not good QB's, team can be scary

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Bortles was a big part of why they were shit last year, but not the only part.

I'm on the fence.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

if the defense shows up with a consistent QB they are a playoff team.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

I mean makes sense, pending the contract/trade surrender.

The Jags still have a top 10 (top 5 I believe?) defense that should be together for a little longer. Fournette was playing hurt all year it seemed anyway.

That said, the Jags have to address the OLINE which was bottom 10 last year according to PFF and allowed top 5 amount of sacks (of course how much of that was on Bortles?). Foles is used to playing behind a top 5 OL in the NFL, and now he's going to what appears on paper, to be a pretty shitty one. I'm not sure how he'll hold up especially given a history with injuries.

Move makes sense, but I'm not willing to crown the Jaguars as playoff favorites after this, although that's what ESPN and all the NFL analyst douchebags will do.

 

[Nosferatu]

I betcha Fournette is happy about it! The defense was 5th in yards and 4th in scoring last year, that division is gonna be pretty good so Foles will need to play well to make the playoffs but they absolutely have a better shot now.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

They were pretty dysfunctional last year on both sides of the ball.

Gonna take some fixing.

Jacksonville special?

 

[SteelersPride]

if that d turns around........

 

[Center Ice]

Wentz is going to hate the Foles chants every time he goes 3 and out.
