I can hear the Dak fans already..... "the team sucks when Foles is on the field. So what if he has a Lombardi, he's 4th tier compared to super Dak".

If anything he could teach Dak how to win big games. You know, those games where Dak fails to show up.

I guess he could also teach Dak how to efficiently pack his belongings as well.... maybe there's a reason Foles is always moving city to city, bouncing around the league. Other than that, Foles can't teach Dak anything worth listening to.

That is the main reason jones boys would never sign foles. It could cause qb controversy.
And they have rarely had good bkups for their qb's.
They rely on the #1 qb to make it thru the year not missing more than 1 or 2 games.

So who is the bears # 1 now, and why would they not want foles to bkup that guy>??
Did they draft a QB?
They drafted Fields from Ohio and signed Dalton. Trubisky is now in Buffalo backing up Josh Allen. Dallas could of made a play for him too.

Do you recall the game without announcers decades ago? I honestly remembered (I watched)..it was on NBC and the Jets were one of the teams. I looked it up for the rest:
December 20, 1980 - a Saturday - Jets @ Dolphins. Season finale for both teams.
JNYJ 24, MIA 17.

lol... I can't recall. Was it a good broadcast without the announcers?

It would be great, but tying up 7 million for the backup qb position...pass.

ok thanks Had, I wonder if dalton was cheaper as bkup than foles, but looks like they either wanted to dump foles,
or foles wants to start not bkup.

Pretty sure Foles was brought in because Trubisky was on a short leash and they soon found out Foles wasn't the answer at least not to replace Trubisky. Dalton was also cheaper than Foles.

Foles has had two very short instances in his career in which he's looked good. He's mostly sucked. It was hilarious after he won a super bowl(W/ a great performance, yes) how so many people suddenly thought he was good.

While it would be nice to know the season isn't over if Prescott goes down again....

They probably will need to restructure a contract to be able to add Foles.

That may mean sticking with Elliott or Jaylon for an extra year. Not sure how I feel about it, but I very seriously doubt this is the way they go.

Even if Gilbert gets hurt, they probably go with Rush as the #2.

Not willing to give up that Draft pick or his salary
Draft pick is nothing. Holding that cap to hold a clipboard is another. This team will go as the 3 guys in the middle of the D-line goes this year. "If" we had stars there this team could be dangerous.

Instead we have rooks and ummm k's.

his career kind of reminded me of Hostetler with the Giants. Simms got hurt, Hostetler played a few games at end of the season, had a hot hand and great strategy by coaches and won a superbowl and ended up with a ho hum career. and people thought he was good too....he was beneficiary of a team, not cause for the team to be good.

Really? Dak has shown up in big games more often than not. How many 4th quarter comebacks does he have? What about the comeback against Green Bay in the playoffs? If Rogers doesn’t have a lucky horseshoe up his butt then we win that game. And dak was the main reason we even climbed back into it
