He's not in the same class as Foles in terms of reading the field. I think that pick in the third quarter yesterday sealed the deal for Nagy, despite his claims about not declaring a permanent starter.

Don't you think Foles can make better use of the talent around him?

I didn't watch much but yeah Nick Foles seems good. I guess I'm just not understanding the 2 straight wins and then Mitch gets benched.

Foles is much better at reading the defense, and that comes with being in the league for almost 2 decades. He seems hungry to make a name for himself before being put out to pasture too. Trubiscuit is still a little green yet, but he's got potential. I didn't watch the game yesterday, but I heard the score going into the 4th and just figured it was done and they'd be 2-1. I woke up this morning and was pleasantly surprised.

Well, they got Foles to play him, no? And why not when the starting QB starts to flag?

Don't forget: Foles still has the highest passer rating in NFL playoff history (105.2), along with the highest completion percentage in postseason history (69.8)...minimum 150 attempts.

Will come in handy if the Bears can make it past December - via either QB!

NFL YouTube posts top plays during game and then full long highlights over, I saw that nice TD pass by Foles. I also didn't know Nick Foles was as good as yall say he is.

Didnt know that. The superbowl will be interesting this year or in 2021 I think.

My Chiefs just manhandled one of the supposed "best teams in the league". This is only the beginning of the run-it-back tour. Get Mahomey another ring. As for the Ravens, well, they were in fine playoff form tonight. All those doubting the Kansas City D, just remember, they held Jackson to career low passing yards of 97 tonight. All told though, not bad for a running back.

By the way, I'm a huge Foles fan and I completely think that Nagy made the right decision in starting him. Foles gets the job done, a complete clutch player.
