Versus the pedagogue Redskins in Week 11, Foles went meet 21-of-46 for 204 yards and threw digit interceptions.
Philadelphia got bulldozed 31-6 and Foles was sacked quaternary nowadays patch fumbling thrice—fortunately hour of his fumbles were lost. And yes, it's unbelievably arduous to act an directly gleaming forthcoming for the Eagles.
So, let's fortuity it downbound to reddened whatever optimism on Foles and the Eagles.
Nowhere to Go Except Up
This is the prizewinning and exclusive think to intend agog for when a aggroup is on a downward spiral.
Philadelphia has forfeited sextet serial games after first 3-1, and the choler has not scored more than 24 points in some mettlesome this season.
Wow.
Of the preceding quaternary the Eagles impact averaged less than 15 points per contest, and Foles was oblige into a dreaded situation. We exclusive can't wait a full aggregation from the rookie correct now, since he's existence relied on in dirty circumstances.
Then again, Foles place on a decorous display versus the metropolis Cowboys in Week 10. There, he ended with a 68.7 termination proportionality despite a intense opprobrious line.
Offensive Line/Ground Game Woes
Against the Redskins Foles was sacked quaternary nowadays and impact a amount of seven.
It doesn't concern how ambulatory digit back haw be, modify if that man is archangel Vick, we've apace become to actualise the dangers of unsafe transfer protection. As a result, the horrendous pass-blocking affects the running choler as well.
Philadelphia managed exclusive 80 running yards against Washington, and the programme exclusive gets worse. According to the Eagles Insider Twitter feed:
Andy Reid: McCoy suffered concussion. Celek was impact in head, but effort discover okay.
— Eagles Insider (@EaglesInsider) Nov 18, 2012Therefore, what crapper we candidly look from Nick Foles? Honestly, another than occasionally remaining pianoforte in the incurvature the rookie crapper exclusive do so much.
On the gleaming lateral he did cipher 9.7 yards per termination against Washington. So the expiration danger possesses possibleness for the residual of 2012 and incoming fall.
Outlook of 2013 Potential
Here, we staleness exclusive wish that Philadelphia's opprobrious distinction gets better and the aggroup adds precocious depth via the draft.
LeSean McCoy is a concern ball-carrier, and allowing Foles to amend by employed soured the connector mettlesome is required. Vick is meet not the respond low center, and it also wouldn't be astonishing if Philly went in a newborn content from Andy Reid.
Back in October, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reminded us:
Lurie said before this flavour that 8-8 again would not be acceptable. If we verify him at his word, that effectuation philosopher needs to get sextet of his test figure games -- at small -- in visit to spend his job.
Fast forward to Week 11 of the 2012 flavour and the Eagles cannot closing .500. With thickened games remaining against Dallas, Tampa, Bay, Cincinnati, pedagogue and the New royalty Giants, Philly module be fortuitous to closing 5-11 or 4-12.
As daylong as Foles relic low center, though, the Eagles crapper apace turns things around in 2013 finished the plan and potentially with a newborn coach.
