Kelly played Foles I’m college he knows he is a BUMMM but he’s a smart man he’s not going to say it publicly he wants value for him.

Foles is a statue and behind that line he’s IR bound and with a system like Chips he’s IR Bound or riding the pine. He is gone this year or next.

Not saying they run Oregons offense but a variation of the hurry up pistol read pass offense. He is ingenious at offensive schemes period he will find a way to make it work. Just don’t know if his Def can.

How could we possibly know how good Foles is until he plays with a real off. line. Rookie QB comes in and plays with less than 3rd stringers. Come on, let’s be fair!

I hope the Eagles do serve up Foles at QB but I can’t see how in the world he fits into that Oregon college offense.

Kelly had his opportunity to call out Asomugha for the underachieving, over paid player that he is but instead whiffed on the question like Asomugha on a tackle.

Foles will be the starting QB for the Eagles in 2013. Every real eagles fan knows this. If you think otherwise 1. you are not a fan of the eagles 2. you dont know anything about the QB position. Foles will dominate the QB competition the only thing he may have a problem with is obviously mobility and read option plays. I highly doubt Kelly will bench Foles lol.

“I think Nnamdi has a skillset, that can play football,”

“You shut your mouth sir, Nnamdi Asomugha is not a kook. He is a brave and decent man. He’s a pioneer!”

And you were expecting him to slam Foles? Even if they don’t think he ‘works’ in their offense, why on earth would he kill any trade value he might have by saying it?

Exactly, Nick Foles has been a Kansas City Chief for the last month and a half, he just doesn’t know it yet. That’s one of the reasons Kelly took the job, he knew he had a a landing spot for Foles, who fits in his system like a right foot in a left shoe, filled with barbed wire.

All these people who are campaigning in the comments section for their team to sign Nnamdi obviously haven’t seen him play the past 2 years. He’s 32 in July, he’s lost 2 steps & can’t run w/ receivers, and he whiffs on so many tackles you can’t even convert him to safety.

I hope he does go to Washington.

I think he meant he had a skill-set, past tense.

Damn, I have a skillset, that can play football and I’m commenting on profootballtalk. Nnamdi might as well retire and start his post football career after that endorsement.

Kelly would be wise to at least take Foles into camp, as Foles is the best QB on the Eagles roster right now. I know, that’s not saying much.
