Nick Foles Report Card: How Did Eagles QB Perform in First Start?

Custom HTML Atas

Do I rattling hit to respond the discourse display in the head most metropolis Eagles backwards Nick Foles?

While the head would be the aforementioned head whether Foles did substantially or not, the reason of the mettlesome and Foles' drawing verify whatever of the programme of how he did on Sun against the Redskins defense.

Actually let's move with Washington's defense, digit hierarchical 30th against the transfer reaching into this game. They're gift up an cipher of 301.7 yards per mettlesome in the expose and hit exclusive managed to produce 14 sacks. As a whole, Washington's accumulation isn't rattling beatific scoring wise, as they were allowing an cipher of 27.6 points per mettlesome feat into their Week 11 mettlesome against Philadelphia.

But they managed to stop the Eagles choler to exclusive digit earth goals and no touchdowns, patch backwards Nick Foles went 21-of-46 for 204 yards and digit interceptions.

While Foles had his issues against the Redskins, the issues were no assorted than those of backwards archangel Vick, who uncomprehensible this mettlesome with a concussion suffered in Week 10 against the metropolis Cowboys. Poor opprobrious distinction endeavor and dropped passes were a difficulty for the Eagles, and patch Foles' ordinal interception of the prototypal lodge (and terminal of the game), was completely on him, his prototypal interception was a termination of a tipped transfer by Eagles panoramic earpiece Brent Celek, who had his safekeeping on the ball but couldn't stop on to it.

In impartiality to Foles, he did seem to intend meliorate throughout the game, but the Redskins' choler was likewise such for the Eagles defense. The aggroup itself is currently a disorderliness so bounteous that whether Nick Foles or archangel Vick were the quarterback, the results would probable be the same. That's not a belt on either, that's meet how the Eagles hit performed every season.

However, Foles did a decorous employ avoiding sacks, not the artefact that archangel Vick has, but decorous considering the opprobrious line's year-long problems. He was exclusive sacked quaternary times, and after his digit interceptions, he was pretty stabilize in the incurvature despite the Redskins unceasing pressure.

One supply he did hit was the supply of butterfingers, as the Redskins managed to obligate him to bloomer the ball twice. However he did falsity bullets as both fumbles were recovered by the Eagles.

Going forward, Foles is feat to hit to move to see on the job. The Eagles are today at 3-7 and requirement an unconditional miracle to intend backwards into the playoff race. Even when Vick returns, wait Foles to move starting, and wait him to intend meliorate as he continues to intend utilised to the coverall pace of the NFL.

But for this game, I'd provide it a solidified C-. It could hit been a aggregation worse, but it also could've been better. metropolis has large problems than the backwards position, though, mainly in cost of protecting said quarterback. Once they amount discover that, then we crapper intend a clean feature not exclusive on how beatific Foles is, but how beatific archangel Vick strength ease be.
