[OregonDucks]

Nick Foles looks like...

the Napoleon Dynamite guy in Blades of Glory.

 

[yeodonie]

[iruletheskool]

[dlinematt]

Nick Foles Ties NFL Record For Most TD's In Single Game

7 TD's today in Oakland for Nick Foles - tied the record that Peyton Manning and a few others are on

He could have easily went for the record if they didn't go conservative and then pulled him later on

If we weren't past the trade deadline Arizona would trade every 1st rounder until 2100 for him after that performance.

when's the last time we traded a 1st rounder for a QB?

BEAR DOWN former wildcat baby!!

 

[wildturkey]

I would have let him throw for 8.

 

[Cobiemonster]

I would have let him throw for 8.

They kinda did, but they didn't do anything for a couple of possessions and then took him out - don't want to risk injury at that point

 

[Shanemansj13]

He is not better than Peyton or Y.A, so 8 wasn't in the playbook.

 

[STBR 27]

How long will they keep saying that Foles is "filling in for the injured Vick" and announce that he is the starting QB for the Eagles? Obviously Vick is not getting the job back.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Shoulda let him go for 8.
He had the chance, why not give him the record.

 

[Pattersonca65]

Why couldn't he have done that when I started him for Fantasy Football. He got -2 points for me.

I would give the O-line a ton of credit, the protection was flawless, I reckon the Raiders had something to do with it as well.

Ryan Leaf could've thrown for at least 4 or 5 against that D.

 

[Sportsguy9695]

I think the Eagles found there quarterback of the future. If they dnt start him next week they would be crazy

 

[bigdeal701]

Calm down it was the Raiders
