That's good. The eagles are really in the same boat. A lot of teams are not even in the "no alternative" situation.
I mean seriously, isn't everyone in the "win now" mode. That is what has happened to the game. Windows don't last multiple years like they used to. In just a couple of years player turnover can be what, 60% or more?
To be fair, we’ve historically proven to win without our starting QB. AJ Feeley, Jeff Garcia, Mike Vick... Foles is just the latest in a long line of smart QB depth. Every guy I mentioned has a NFC East division title under their belt this millennium while opening the season as the backup.
