Cook dropping the ball prevents him from going for the first. Guy's got hands of stone.

Well, the defense is keeping us close, but, like a broken record, will start to wear down because they are on the field way too much and the Cards will wear them down in the end. No offense to speak of, so Cignetti needs to start opening the playbook even if we don't convert. Our offense is so predictable it's pathetic.

Shoot guys, the difference between us and the best teams in the league is they have QB's and discipline.

Expectations should have an average ceiling until we at least have a QB.
And an offensive line, wide receivers, defensive linemen, linebackers, d.b.'s, a placekicker. Well you get my drift.

Tavon looked wide open for an easy first down! What the fuck is wrong with foles?

The Whiners put 300 yards up on this defense last week. We won't win again at this rate.

At least we're completing passes. Foles doesn't look AS BAD as he did in the first quarter. But the running game is non existent again today.

The guy is a miscast in this offense. They brought him in back when we wanted to have a high flying attack. When that fell apart in ATL, Fisher said we needed to run the ball. Now we're stuck with him. :palm:

The problem is, to my perspective at least, that Foles is very slow to scan the field. Add to that the shorter amount of time he has due to o line deficiency and you've got a single read to defend on every down as opposing defense. When you only have to diagnose and defend one option, you can shut down a passing game completely.

Blaine Gabbert and Shaun Draughn are tied with the Bears on the road right now.

I am really worried about this team winning another game at this rate. Can you believe they might finish 4-12?

The way it's going now, Gurley will need 200 more rushes to get a thousand yards. Fisher should start anybody but that garbage Foles at quarterback. Philly saw these buffoons coming when they engineered the trade for Bradford.

If we just had a not so good quarterback I believe we'd have a couple more wins. Foles is rated 56th in the league in QB rating according to NFL.com. The only quarterback in the league that has a worse rating with as many attempts or more is Peyton Manning.
