Good move by the Eagles. Desperation pays a higher price. Meanwhile, the Eagles have insurance.

Cleveland is a great city to be a fan of any other team. Seriously, where else can you buy a ticket to see a championship caliber visiting team play and it will only cost you around $13. You even get a free slice of pizza!

Weird. They have Tyrod Taylor and I'm assuming he's the starter until Mayfield is ready.....if that happened, they would have had

Foles
Taylor
Stanton
Mayfield

This was before the draft I'd assume, Tyrod was probably plan B.

They did my boy Nick a solid. From the article:

"Before rejecting the deal, two sources said, the Eagles ran the scenario by Foles, who said he preferred to remain in Philadelphia."

I suspect it went down like this:

Howie Roseman: "Hey Nick, how would you like to be a starter again?"

Nick Foles: "Um, where Howie?"

Howie Roseman: "Um, Cleveland?"

Nick Foles: "That's cool Howie, but I think I will ride this pine right here and stare at my SB ring."

Howie: "OK, I get it. Smart kid."

Oh okay....I didn't see when it was offered, for some reason I thought it was the day of the draft or this would have been news way before now.

Be team Ovie with me and root for the Caps on Wednesday
If the caps win it all then I am the ultimate good luck charm. The last three stadiums I watched a game at were the astros last July, Eagles in December, and Capitals in March.

do you agree them declining that trade is nothing more than caution about wentz?

Was this BEFORE they used the #1 on Baker?

Yet after a third for Tyrod?

Eagles really saved the Browns from being the Browns, again.


I'm sure Wentz will miss most of this year and the Iggles will miss the playoffs because of it. But they didn't need Foles for any of that to happen. Bad move on their part imo.

Been to dollar dog night a few times to watch the Tigers. In Stinktown. Ten bucks and you can sit behind the dugout.
