Foles to the Bears?
I guess but Foles hasn’t been good outside of the Eagles system.

Foles is like the lesser version of Jeff Hostetler.

 

[Hockeyholic]

This is a GM that is desperate to save his job. Still the 3rd best team in the division. Though only giving up a 4th is a win.

Eager to read BWC's thoughts.

Jaguars paid him $50.125m for 173 snaps

BDN! Haha.

As a Bears fan, I'm glad they brought someone in and I'm glad they didn't give up a lot to do so. Can't say I'm excited about it but they needed another viable starter.

I realize he has a connection to Bears coaches and they don't want to bring in a sure fire upgrade because they're attached to Trubisky for some inexplicable reason but Foles? All of these options out there and that's the guy you end up with?

Bears are also now without a 1st, 3rd, and 4th round pick. They do have two 2nds though.

i guess?

i thought trubisky was pretty much entrenched as the starter there

I don't see a lot of difference between the options out there honestly.

Glad they aren't tied to him (anyone) long term.

Bears deserve to be terrible forever.

Happy to see Bears get a real QB

Time to release the mental midget that is Mitch and bring in a real backup

Absolutely embarrassing how badly our GM botched his first round picks

I can see Bears back as a playoff team now

What do the Bears take on in salary cap hit on Foles this season?

 

[weastern bias]

I would have preferred Cam Newton, but the ghost of Nick Foles is still better than Mitch Trubisky

 

[MMC]

 

[DougieSmash]

They still should draft QB.

 

[CHfan1]

What do the Bears take on in salary cap hit on Foles this season?

$15.625 million this season, just over $20 million the next two seasons according to spotrac.

Thats good work if you can get it.

Trashbisky was bad this year and was never a great pick to begin with. Still hilarious they passed over Watson & Mahomes for him

Anyhow, that Foles contract was awful from the start. I still don't understand Jacksonvilles thinking.... I could maybe understand if it was right after his SB performance.... but it was a full year later.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

Wanted Teddy but I think this was the 2nd best option and he knows the system.

 

[FireDJ]

In Gardner we trust!!

 

[TheAngryHank]

I like Foles and wish him well.
