Nick Foles highlights?

[Legatron4]

Far and few in between. But he sure looked good early on. I remember the second Cardinals game when you would literally cheer for a completion because they were so rare at this point in the season.

I still can't get over that Sted celebration. Worth the fine.

 

[Roman Snow]

I say he beats out Goff.

Dude needs a great sports psychologist.

He was literally the worst QB in the NFL as far as QBR last year. Let's go ahead and forget this guy. Barring an unfortunate series of injuries, he probably will never take the field as a Ram ever again.

Agreed, especially because of where it happened. That game was easily the high point of the season for me last year, and for that i give mad props to Foles, Gurley and many other guys for showing up ready to ball that day.

Fuck the Tards.

I still can't get over that throw to Stedman, in overtime, vs the seacocks, in between Sherman and Thomas. How the fuck do you make a throw that damn good and then suck sooo bad the rest of the year, blows my mind man...

I just can't believe they bothered to block a video of Nick Foles highlights.

For realz?!

i'm betting the video consisted of about 5 or 6 throws.

It was a strange thing.......he went from looking pretty damn good to complete shit almost overnight.

I still think he got hurt in GB and the wheels came off mentally.

I still hope he has a good career, he's a good dude and deserves another shot at it. Just not with the Rams.

WITH YOU 100%.
Foles play last year and the drafting of Goff are all just misdirection
for the surprise attack we have planned this year.I will bet my junior CIA badge on it.

 

[TexasRam]

Trust me, I'm glad we drafted Goff.

But Foles had about the worst supporting cast in all of football. Yea he missed some reads and forced some balls but his QBR rating had a lot to due with the lack of Wr's and pass pro.

I think it's unfair to use Foles as the scapegoat.

Yes, our wr's werent the best, but Foles overthrew/underthrew them a shit ton. Unfair to use him as a scapegoat? I think not.

Watching that video, it's just painful to see how bad Foles's lower body mechanics are at times.

I can't agree with this, Les. I think it's just rationalizing a guy who wasn't good to begin with. I have no doubt that his confidence took a major hit which only made him play worse but he didn't go from pretty damn good to complete crap overnight. He played a good game against Seattle in Week 1 (not as good as the stats make it seem, though) and then he stunk up the field against Washington and Pittsburgh in Weeks 2 and 3. In Week 4, he had a great game against Arizona...but it was more of a great half as he wasn't anything special in the first half.

And after the Green Bay game, he had decent games against Cleveland and SF. The dude was who he was. He was a fringe starting QB on a team with a dysfunctional offense. Put together some good stretches of play but ultimately proved to be what he was...a bad starting QB in a bad situation.

And when you look at his game, that's exactly what you see. He's a guy with middling physical tools, middling mechanics, middling mental acuity, and middling arm talent.
