They don't do anything, Nick Foles did his job. The Eagles should keep him around in case Wentz has a set back. There is no guarantee if they trade him for a draft pick that the pick won't be a bust.
Let Foles decide his future. He deserves that much. I'd hope they wouldn't trade him without Foles' consent. I'd be just as happy keeping him on the roster and retiring him an Eagle when he is ready.
They should just ask Nick Foles what he wants to do. If he wants to start somewhere, send him to a QB needy team that isn't Cleveland. If he wants to stay in Philly, keep him. He's earned the right to decide his own future
First Things First: Cris Carter and Nick Wright .... can Nick squidward Wrong be ANY dumber? 3 unproven draft picks for the best young QB in the league? Bruh. Do u try and sound ridiculous to get ratings?
Danny Branderson you don't trade away a guy who was probably going to win league MVP and was the who was also the best quarterback during the regular season
CC is always the voice of reason. Trade Carson Wentz? Come on... Nick Foles is not as good as Carson Wentz, but man I'm grateful they had the best backup in the league bc that was the reason we finally have a Super Bowl in Philly.
There’s no guarantee that wentz will be even half as good as foles was in the playoffs and if he does, it probably will take 3 more years of experience in the playoffs
Not quite... could Carson Wentz win a super bowl? We will never know. Can Nick Foles win a Super Bowl? We know that answer. Loyalty has no place in the game of football. It’s all business. If your technique got you to the Super Bowl, then why would you change it? Just like Prescott. Romo is clearly far better than Dak. But why change your QBs when you are having success?
Christopher Trevino but who is the better qb? Wentz. He was having a mvp season. He can can do far more than Foles. Foles is a system player. They had to change their play calling for Foles to succeed. I do get that we have evidence of winning the Superbowl, but he came in after we secured a spot in the playoffs. It may have been different if Foles started the season.
Brandon Jones exactly what I’ve been saying nick foles did what a back up is supposed to play well for a small period of time Carson Wentz is the now and future at QB
Why are we even talking about this. They were talking about Nick Foles before the playoffs as if he was complete garbage and he would go one and done. Now that he won he’s better than Wentz. NO!!!! That’s not how it works Wentz is way better and the future. There’s no controversy and Wentz will be the starter for the next 15 years
Yeah that was lame. It's almost (obviously not on that scale......) like Montana and Young with the Niners over 20 years ago. You have an older guy with a lesser arm.....but has proven he can get it done in the big game. But then LOOK at Steve Young, holy carp what an arm (and accurate). Why would you NOT want to have both on your team if you could swing it? Plus Foles isn't causing problems looking for playtime like with Young back in the day. (Montana got traded for his last two seasons)
Cris Carter spoke the truth and it's crazy people are making this a QB controversy. There''s no controversy. Foles knew his role, stepped up and played really well in his role -- and will step down once that role is 100% fulfilled. He's the backup and the best backup in the league. Foles would have struggled at numerous points in the season, especially when our O-Line was awful. Foles excelled because the O-Line play was fantastic. Once Wentz is ready, Foles will return to his mentorship/backup role. With Foles as a backup, that ensures Wentz doesn't have to fear for his health every snap. He knows that there's a Superbowl MVP behind him, ready to step in at a moments notice. #FlyEaglesFly
Doesn't make sense or tells the entire story. Foles went 1-5 his rookie year and then went 8-2 in 2013 then 6-2 in 2014. In 2017, Foles went 5-1 including the SB and the pointless loss against the Cowboys. On the other side you have Carson Wentz. He went 7-9 as a starter his rookie year and I think was 16 TDs to 14 INTs. In my opinion for both players rookie season is getting a feel of the league and everything. Wentz started out 3-0 and the chemistry went downhill for the offense after Lane Johnson was out. Both are winning QBs and are in the perfect system. I find Wentz as a future elite QB and I think Foles can be a good starter in the lg like Stafford, Cousins, Flacco, Ryan, etc. But aside from all them I can tell you when he has a coach that understands the spread offense like Pederson and Chip.....he will definitely succeed. I think Foles can ball. Having said that, I would not trade Foles for anything. I would keep him on my eagles and go from there. GO EAGLES!
Why is this even a topic? No guarantee that Carson comes back 100%, and if he does, then it is up to Nick Foles. Maybe he is okay being the back up?? ever thought of that?
Mr L wiseman they're actually already paying him a lot for a back-up, they are kinda strict with the cap so if he wants more he'll have to go somewhere else
Mr L wiseman not really if it was watched like the World Cup then yea it would be but a lot of people around the world doesn’t care about American football, they just know about it because of social media, I doubt people in Africa, China, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica, Iceland Croatia or any other country watched the super bowl lol
I said the same thing. Hahahahaha that player comparison is why he’s on the show. Make an outrageous statement to get “us” to comment and to also continue to watch the show. He’s a Skip Bayless. Skip brings a lot of traffic to that network and program. Networks don’t care how knowledgeable these guys are about sportsthata why they have the ex-pros and guests come on that know a lot. It’s a lot about traffic.
Nick is crazy lol Wentz isnt going anywhere. If someone offers a 1st round pick for Foles especially the Browns, thats tempting, you have to consider that offer.
jaden wyatt , they did give up 505 yards passing to NE, wouldn't mind a little help with that maybe... they played against the run great all year... and the offense is a juggernaut, wouldn't mess with anything there
They might just need a few players on D, but their offense is good to go,the line,three talented RBs and a full state of top notch receivers, two greats QBs! Why mess with that offense?!
A) it has been said by multiple doctors that wentz will be ready week 1 and end of camp B) its up to foles if he wants to be traded. He is qb 2 and if that rightfully so doesn’t satisfy him they will trade him to be a starter for 1st round value
I think the Eagles could get a 1st round PLUS another pick. If you are the Browns, would you rather have a #1 pick, or Foles. For me, it would be Foles hands down. There are just too many #1 pick busts. Foles is a proven QB in my opinion.
Christian: Is your brother on the team? .. Cool name.. But trading Foles would have been football blasphemy. Thank god he’s still around. Wentz is not playing anytime soon. That injury was brutal.
I feel like personally Nick Foles is unselfish and might want to stay in Philly as a quality backup. He was about to retire at the Rams so maybe he doesnt wanna go to a trash team and struggle again. Who is to say Carson will be ready in September and also why not keep a quality backup?
Maxima Gang agreed. And who is to say that Carson will come back and be the same player. I do think both are quality. Both are outstanding God loving individuals. Let's just see how this plays out.
Keeping Foles is great, but there is a price to pay. If Eagles trade Foles now, they will get a draft pick. If they keep him, he becomes a free agent after next year and they get nothing for him.
Wentz is young, let him sit next year and fully heal while Foles plays out the last year of his 2yr contract. Win win for everyone. Foles gets to prove he can carry a team for a year. Wentz gets to heal without being forced to play and can mentally get back into game shape as the starter for year 3.
PLEEZ!!! Stop sayin this is the Eagles 1st Championship!! The Eagles won the NFL Championship in '48,'49 &'60. I guess beating Vince Lombardi & Bart Starr doesn't mean anything?
Common Sense Kempo cause it technically is their first super bowl win no one counts anything won before the super bowl Era come on every one knows that
Nick Foles is now a Philly legend, he's not going anywhere unless he wants to. He's got a job for life with them, he'll get a coaching or back office job, or even a hospitality job for life where he picks up a pay cheque for saying hello to people and showing them his ring.
Let me put it this way so that people can understand. Carson "is like" Foles but with more football IQ, defense reading, arm, elusiveness, athleticism and in my opinion leadership. Maybe some of you only seen our games in the post season but Wentz actually played better than Foles (vs Vikings, vs Patriots) in a lot of the games. A lot of drives, scoring plays, big gains and opportunities only happened BECAUSE of what Wentz brings to the table. He has EVERYTHING Foles have to offer AND MORE.
Victor Vasconcellos Foles is more accurate. Carson is the better Qb though. I wanted Wentz to work on his deep ball this offseason but that won’t happen due to his injury.
The first 5 games of the season he was being inaccurate but from that moment on he was on point. I see you're a fellow Eagles fan and i'm also sure you remember all the analysis on Foles posted on BGN in 2014. We always knew Foles had potential but we also know how he looks when he plays bad. He can't read defenses, can't find open receivers, he wasn't athletic at all (this year he has been MUCH improved in this aspect) and he also has accuracy problems. If this "controversy" was about any other QB that's not Wentz, Rodgers, Wilson or Brady i'd be 100% in for starting him. As much as i love Foles, as much as i think he deserves a statue in Philly i don't think he has IT. He's talented and a great player but do people know what "IT" is? IT is when you're greater than anything that can happen to you on the field, it's being a huge leader and giving 110% when nothing is working. Tim Tebow had it, but he didn't had talent nor the skills to move on but Carson does. I've seen enough from Carson to know that when everything fails he is a weapon himself. He can win it by himself as he already did so many times.
I agree 100% don't trade him Wentz is not even healthy at this moment , plus Eagles can go on a run. Need to make sure their have insurance. Foles still has a future can play for 4-5 great years maybe more . The jets need wide receivers running back , need help on the defense Also if a team wants Foles . If any team get Foles he's the Franchise face. Most likely he's not getting traded.
As an Eagles fan who really takes time to look inside the team and the press conferences and interviews throughout the season let me say this in specific context to this video and talk lately about this "QB situation" or "controversy." Let me start off by saying this is all just hilarious to me as an Eagles fan as I said lol. I can confidently say I'm 99.99999999% sure Foles himself is perfectly fine and MORE than happy to serve as the backup QB for the Eagles. I'm almost just as sure Doug Pederson and the entire team feels the exact same way. You've (or at least I) can see this by what Foles has said himself when he's talked to the media time and time again since Wentz went down up until present. He states plenty of times that he fully acknowledges that Wentz IS the future and franchise QB of this team. Pederson has also stated the same stance on Wentz plenty of times as he IS the team's future at QB and how Foles is the next man up, I mean that's why they got him back in the first place. There really is no "controversy" or "situation." Now to answer how I think they should handle the "QB situation" is easy and basically seems solved already. I can see Wentz as the definte starter, absolutely no question there at all. And I can see Foles simply staying with the team serving as not only as a backup, but a vet-like mentor for the team for at least another year or very likely an extension of up to 2 or 3 depending on how long he decides his career in football to last (which this SB win definitely extended that wanting to stay in the league much longer and more notably WITHIN Philly). So there ya have it, not much of a situation at all, everyone seems to be in the perfect spot they wish to be in among this really happy team. The real question is among the free agents/one year contract players, so many good players. Who stays who goes? Should be an interesting off-season.
I don't know any Eagles fan pulling for Nick to be our starter over a healthy Wentz, maybe a recovering one, but not a healthy one. And Wright talking about giving away Carson for a round of first round picks sounds stupid. Foles, I'm sorry...looks like we have seen his ceiling, that last game looks like his maximum potential. Meanwhile Carson just started his career and looks awesome! I don't think Carson is at his full potential. So why would we trade a player who has the possibility to improve some more next year for Foles? In 5 years I could see Carson being an Elite QB.
If I'm Philly I let Nick decide if he wants to stay he knows he will be the backup to wentz but if he wants to be traded you make a deal for him. Foles deserves to be in charge of his future
Really trying to start a controversy. Very simple. Carson is the man moving forward and Nick has proven that he is a very capable qb and he will get a well well deserved raise. If Carson is not ready by camp then we can start Nick to start the year. And if we do trade Nick we can add depth to the O and D Line. Fly Eagles Fly baby 🦅🏆 SB52 Champs. Been waiting my whole life to say that
Foles should play all of 2018 and let Wentz heal 100%. His torn ACL/LCL is a 9-12 month injury. It happened in December, so it won’t even be nine months until a few more days. If Wentz is truly the future, they need to make sure he’s healthy. Will this happen? No, but it should.
Foles is a system quarterback...the Eagles system where he flourishes and he knows it. I’m a Pats Fan, but Nick Foles is a great QB, when he like Brady, find themselves a round peg in a round hole, they can be extraordinary.
Making a Super Bowl MVP who beat Tom Brady a backup is crazy. Quite a few quarterbacks can do well in regular season but not so many can win under the pressure of the playoffs.
Foles don't seem like he's looking to be a starter because he was ready to retire. He seems to be fine being the backup. We don't kno if Carson is completely healthy. Nik Wright just don't know what he be talking about.. Like where did he come from?? lol
Key key, I dont think so dude. No one in the NFL is ok with being a backup. Esp a good qb like Foles. The reason he wanted to retire is because Philly was stupid to trade him in 2015 and Jeff Fisher is an idiot coach who knows nothing, and bascially ruined Fole's career, then he went to KC to be a back up to Alex Smith, who is a quality QB, so that meant no starts for Foles in KC, now with Wentz, same deal, so I'm pretty sure he wants to be "the guy" on a team somewhere...
Huy pham - where did I write that he would do well somewhere else? I never said that. I just said I dont think he's "ok" with being a backup and he probably wants to be the guy for any team that would make him the starter...
It would be hilarious if CLE trades their 4th overall pick, PHI draft Barkley who basically already plays in the philly area, N. Foles disappoints CLE, his contract runs up, PHI signs him back the season after next.
There is no drama. The way Wentz played this year it should be cemented that Wentz is the starter, Foles the backup till he wants to leaves. Nothing more, Nothing less
It would be great IF the Eagles could keep Foles. However, Foles will likely be free agent in 2019. Eagles can keep him in 2018, but will lose him next year no matter what, so trading him might make the most sense right now.
nick foles is obviously a back up but he has a lot of value so I don’t know if we should trade him. the problem is not know the recovery time of wentz n how healthy he is going to be. if he needs to miss some time then we should keep foles. if carson’s completely healthy then what we could do potentially (and this is just hypothetical) is trade foles to the browns for the #4 pick, draft saquon barkley, trade ajayi and blount for two draft picks, draft a back up and use the other for whatever. clement is a great rb2 in my opinion and we could get a lot for ajayi and blount also in my opinion. thoughts?
I'm with CC .. don't change the winning system. You have a franchise QB in Wentz and a franchise backup QB in Foles they both still under contract. I would renew both they contracts and give them the money they want even if Foles agrees to be on the bench. Athletes with ACL and LCL injuries have a 1 in 4 rate of a reoccurring injury. You know Foles can win you a championship and you have great faith Wentz can too. Keep your ace in the hole and go on championship run for a couple years. Even if you don't win anymore you still have Foles on the bench and in your negotiations you always can say "we want everything you got for Foles.. remember he won a championship in 2018"
Trade foles out of respect so he can go somewhere and start Dude played a great end of a season and is now the Super Bowl MVP can’t expect him to go back to Being a back to a QB with a busted leg. Trade for foles for a possible 2nd or 3rd round pick to a respectable team. Foles has value now
Carson is the starter. Nick will stay as back up. Why not? The Eagles have a badass team the way it is. They know that. Keep foles as back. I don't think Nick cares if he stays backup. Just chill and get a second ring doing nothing now lol
I will always love Nick Foles for what he did, but he’ll never be on the level of Carson! Carson is a stud, nick played like a stud. There is a difference! I would love to keep Foles as a back up as long as he is ok with that roll, but if he wants to spread his wings and start else where, he earned that right and I would trade him, if and only if that’s what he wants.
The SMART thing to do is to keep both QBs. Carson Wentz injury will reappear next season. Then what? They have a DYNASTY in the making. Excellent defense, offensive line, QBs, recievers... KEEP THEM !!!If they trade Foles they're back to square one. Be smart Eagles. Keep them. you have a winner in BOTH !!
Nick Foles proofed that his NFL expiriance made him win a championship, Wentz didnt had any postseason expiriance which i really doubt he would have gotten the same results, regular and post season are diferent, Foles should be starter if Philly wants to be a elite team
Carson played scrub teams during the regular season. Foles carved up top notch teams in the playoffs including the juggernaut Patriots. Foles deserves a chance to start in Philly.
Dude you can't be an Eagles fan. None of us think this way. I love Nick Foles, but we had this guy before during a full regular season. We know what that looks like. We'll take our chances Carson.
nick wright be like "If Cleveland gave Philly a bag of doritos and a Code Red Mountain Dew for Carson Wentz... obviously Philly listens to the offer right?"
Chris Carter is crazy if he thinks PHI won't be trying to get a Kings Ransom for Nick Foles. Nick Foles needs to remember that this is the Not For Long league and try to break the bank after this win. PERIOD. If I were Nick Foles, I'd get out of Dodge real quick!
How should the Eagles handle their QB situation?
First Things First: Cris Carter and Nick Wright. Trade him for a 1st rnd or keep him.
They don't do anything, Nick Foles did his job. The Eagles should keep him around in case Wentz has a set back. There is no guarantee if they trade him for a draft pick that the pick won't be a bust.
Let Foles decide his future. He deserves that much. I'd hope they wouldn't trade him without Foles' consent. I'd be just as happy keeping him on the roster and retiring him an Eagle when he is ready.
They should just ask Nick Foles what he wants to do. If he wants to start somewhere, send him to a QB needy team that isn't Cleveland. If he wants to stay in Philly, keep him. He's earned the right to decide his own future
First Things First: Cris Carter and Nick Wright .... can Nick squidward Wrong be ANY dumber? 3 unproven draft picks for the best young QB in the league? Bruh. Do u try and sound ridiculous to get ratings?
THERE IS NO QUARTERBACK CONTROVERSY I JUST SAID THIS YESTERDAY CARSON IS THE FUTURE KEEP FOLES AS THE BACKUP AND START HIM TILL CARSONS BACK JESUS
Kenan Ford that’s exactly what’s going to happen. Media reaching for material smh
Exactly it's not that hard, the only way I say we trade Foles, is if HE wants to be traded.
Its that simple
Couple questions to think about
What draft pick is guaranteed to have a star player?
What would have this season been if we didn't have Nick?
Danny Branderson you don't trade away a guy who was probably going to win league MVP and was the who was also the best quarterback during the regular season
CC is always the voice of reason. Trade Carson Wentz? Come on... Nick Foles is not as good as Carson Wentz, but man I'm grateful they had the best backup in the league bc that was the reason we finally have a Super Bowl in Philly.
Nick Sabatine Nick is literally nuts
There’s no guarantee that wentz will be even half as good as foles was in the playoffs and if he does, it probably will take 3 more years of experience in the playoffs
They never said trade wentz they said trade foles. Pay attention
Yes, but the question is; is he one of the top 32 QBs in the league, and how much is someone willing to give up for him.
Nick Sabatine remember when bill thought tom wasnt as good as Bledsoe? Any quaterback can be great in the right system
Did he seriously think eagles would trade Wentz. Is he high?!?! That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Robbie McGill because Nick Wright....enough said
Not quite... could Carson Wentz win a super bowl? We will never know. Can Nick Foles win a Super Bowl? We know that answer.
Loyalty has no place in the game of football. It’s all business. If your technique got you to the Super Bowl, then why would you change it?

It may have been different if Foles started the season.
I'm your Superbeast ,true true
I'm your Superbeast haha exactly
Why are ppl acting like foles started the whole season
Carson got us here
Brandon Jones exactly what I’ve been saying nick foles did what a back up is supposed to play well for a small period of time Carson Wentz is the now and future at QB
Thank you, i feel bad Carson got no credit Sunday.
People that are not eagles fans are afraid of Carson Wentz so they want him as a backup.
Yes123 exactly
Yes123 I doubt that’s it that’s extremely naive
Smh CC looks so tired with these two 🙄
Got me on that one.. 😂 here my upvote.
Nah dude if your tired around Jenna time to call it a day.
Why are we even talking about this. They were talking about Nick Foles before the playoffs as if he was complete garbage and he would go one and done. Now that he won he’s better than Wentz. NO!!!! That’s not how it works Wentz is way better and the future. There’s no controversy and Wentz will be the starter for the next 15 years

(Montana got traded for his last two seasons)
I think Wentz would of lost in the conference championship or SB, cause of nervousness. Foles had nerves of steel.
It's possible, yes.
Foles was so poised and confident, it was awesome to watch!
Wentz is not, “way better than Foles.” Foles has better stats in an Eagles uniform than your golden boy Wentz. Look it up!
Cris Carter spoke the truth and it's crazy people are making this a QB controversy. There''s no controversy. Foles knew his role, stepped up and played really well in his role -- and will step down once that role is 100% fulfilled. He's the backup and the best backup in the league.

In my opinion for both players rookie season is getting a feel of the league and everything. Wentz started out 3-0 and the chemistry went downhill for the offense after Lane Johnson was out.
Both are winning QBs and are in the perfect system. I find Wentz as a future elite QB and I think Foles can be a good starter in the lg like Stafford, Cousins, Flacco, Ryan, etc. But aside from all them I can tell you when he has a coach that understands the spread offense like Pederson and Chip.....he will definitely succeed.
I think Foles can ball. Having said that, I would not trade Foles for anything. I would keep him on my eagles and go from there.
GO EAGLES!
Why is this even a topic? No guarantee that Carson comes back 100%, and if he does, then it is up to Nick Foles. Maybe he is okay being the back up?? ever thought of that?
Gallopingfish Money. Talks.
Gallopingfish Nick Foles said he’s cool with being back up. If he gets traded he’ll retire and be a priest like nick wants to be
Would Nick Foles even be as good on another team? I feel like Doug Pederson might be the main reason he was so good in the playoffs and Super Bowl.
RODSON33 Collin kaepernick with Jim Harbaugh? The coach has a influence on the plays they run and the routes they choose
Give the Super bowl MVP a raise, he played a perfect. game on a world stage
Mr L wiseman they're actually already paying him a lot for a back-up, they are kinda strict with the cap so if he wants more he'll have to go somewhere else
World stage? National stage you mean
+Bankroll Guwop i said world stage, cause the superbowl is shown in so many countries. Worldwide baby
Mr L wiseman not really if it was watched like the World Cup then yea it would be but a lot of people around the world doesn’t care about American football, they just know about it because of social media, I doubt people in Africa, China, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica, Iceland Croatia or any other country watched the super bowl lol
+Bankroll Guwop yeah ill give you that, 2 points for you
Nick just beat Brady. He deserves a chance to compete with Wentz for the job next year.
Carson Wentz did not break his leg lol he tore his acl and lcl that's it
smh nick is clueless like always
Yeah I was like wait when did he break his leg?!
I said the same thing. Hahahahaha that player comparison is why he’s on the show. Make an outrageous statement to get “us” to comment and to also continue to watch the show. He’s a Skip Bayless. Skip brings a lot of traffic to that network and program. Networks don’t care how knowledgeable these guys are about sportsthata why they have the ex-pros and guests come on that know a lot. It’s a lot about traffic.
beast mode lol tearing your acl and lcl is way worse than a broken leg
harvir mangat maybe 10 years ago not worse than breaking a leg now a days
No matter what, Nick Foles is on contract for another 1 year
NFL LIFE two more years
Yea but the thing is we could trade him to get something since he has value now
Conner Stibich
Unless it’s top 5 of the 1st round, forgetaboutit
What has more value than having the security that even without your #1 Qb you are a Superbowl-winning team?
Junior Cancel : He'll be a free agent 2019 so he has 1 year left under contract.
Nick is crazy lol Wentz isnt going anywhere. If someone offers a 1st round pick for Foles especially the Browns, thats tempting, you have to consider that offer.
Just keep the current roster they won the super bowl whey change anything
jaden wyatt , they did give up 505 yards passing to NE, wouldn't mind a little help with that maybe... they played against the run great all year... and the offense is a juggernaut, wouldn't mess with anything there
They might just need a few players on D, but their offense is good to go,the line,three talented RBs and a full state of top notch receivers, two greats QBs! Why mess with that offense?!
Nick wright just made the stupidest comment I’ve ever heard him say
Matt Dubbs He's not really good at sounding smart
Which one? (everything that comes out of his mouth is ridiculous)
The guy is clueless!
A) it has been said by multiple doctors that wentz will be ready week 1 and end of camp
B) its up to foles if he wants to be traded. He is qb 2 and if that rightfully so doesn’t satisfy him they will trade him to be a starter for 1st round value
Foles ain't going anywhere! Unless they can land a top 5 pick, I highly doubt that Nick will even be considered trading.
I'll take any 1st round pick, and maybe a 2nd depending on where it lands in the 2nd. But I won't take a 3rd
I think the Eagles could get a 1st round PLUS another pick. If you are the Browns, would you rather have a #1 pick, or Foles. For me, it would be Foles hands down. There are just too many #1 pick busts. Foles is a proven QB in my opinion.
Christian: Is your brother on the team? .. Cool name.. But trading Foles would have been football blasphemy. Thank god he’s still around. Wentz is not playing anytime soon. That injury was brutal.
I feel like personally Nick Foles is unselfish and might want to stay in Philly as a quality backup. He was about to retire at the Rams so maybe he doesnt wanna go to a trash team and struggle again. Who is to say Carson will be ready in September and also why not keep a quality backup?
Maxima Gang agreed. And who is to say that Carson will come back and be the same player. I do think both are quality. Both are outstanding God loving individuals. Let's just see how this plays out.
Keeping Foles is great, but there is a price to pay. If Eagles trade Foles now, they will get a draft pick. If they keep him, he becomes a free agent after next year and they get nothing for him.
C.C is 110% correct, thank goodness for finally someone that knows what they are taking about!
Amen Cris Carter! Let's just slow down and let things simmer down.
Wentz is young, let him sit next year and fully heal while Foles plays out the last year of his 2yr contract. Win win for everyone. Foles gets to prove he can carry a team for a year. Wentz gets to heal without being forced to play and can mentally get back into game shape as the starter for year 3.
I only watch FTF to see how Cris reacts to crazy Nick pontifications.
PLEEZ!!! Stop sayin this is the Eagles 1st Championship!! The Eagles won the NFL Championship in '48,'49 &'60. I guess beating Vince Lombardi & Bart Starr doesn't mean anything?
Common Sense Kempo I think people mean there first in the superbowl era of football
Common Sense Kempo nobody cares about that we were
Weren't even born
Young__splashy a lot of people weren’t born in older Super Bowls..a lot of Steelers Super Bowls we weren’t even a live
Common Sense Kempo cause it technically is their first super bowl win no one counts anything won before the super bowl Era come on every one knows that
We don't have to pretend our old titles count anymore lol
go to 9:14 and look at nick wrights face as cc throws his words down his throte hahahhahahahaha priceless
Carson is the future, Foles is the back up Period. Nick trade for Wentz lol he always reinforces how I feel about him
Nick Foles is now a Philly legend, he's not going anywhere unless he wants to. He's got a job for life with them, he'll get a coaching or back office job, or even a hospitality job for life where he picks up a pay cheque for saying hello to people and showing them his ring.
Let me put it this way so that people can understand. Carson "is like" Foles but with more football IQ, defense reading, arm, elusiveness, athleticism and in my opinion leadership.
Maybe some of you only seen our games in the post season but Wentz actually played better than Foles (vs Vikings, vs Patriots) in a lot of the games. A lot of drives, scoring plays, big gains and opportunities only happened BECAUSE of what Wentz brings to the table. He has EVERYTHING Foles have to offer AND MORE.
Victor Vasconcellos Foles is more accurate. Carson is the better Qb though. I wanted Wentz to work on his deep ball this offseason but that won’t happen due to his injury.
The first 5 games of the season he was being inaccurate but from that moment on he was on point.
I see you're a fellow Eagles fan and i'm also sure you remember all the analysis on Foles posted on BGN in 2014. We always knew Foles had potential but we also know how he looks when he plays bad. He can't read defenses, can't find open receivers, he wasn't athletic at all (this year he has been MUCH improved in this aspect) and he also has accuracy problems.
If this "controversy" was about any other QB that's not Wentz, Rodgers, Wilson or Brady i'd be 100% in for starting him.
As much as i love Foles, as much as i think he deserves a statue in Philly i don't think he has IT. He's talented and a great player but do people know what "IT" is? IT is when you're greater than anything that can happen to you on the field, it's being a huge leader and giving 110% when nothing is working. Tim Tebow had it, but he didn't had talent nor the skills to move on but Carson does. I've seen enough from Carson to know that when everything fails he is a weapon himself. He can win it by himself as he already did so many times.
Victor Vasconcellos I agree Wentz is the better Qb. Foles just has a better deep all it’s all I was trying to get at.
As an Eagles fan they better never trade Nick foles he is a legend in this city!!!!!!
wentz is our qb. no controversy. foles did his job...win games if our starter goes down. i love nick for the win, but carson is my man.
CC knows his Stuff
Chris Carter completely changed my mind.
CC you're right on ! Press, stop trying to stir up controversy's where there is none !
Keep both of them!
Cris Carter is spot on.
Nick Foles is starter material no doubt. He's a top 10 QB in my opinion. It's a shame he has been dealt the hand he has.
CC looked disgusted at Nick after that ridiculous question lmao
we are gonna keep both
You keep Nick Foles , he is already a proven warrior and the troops ( especially the d ) trust him as their leader !
Why would you ? Carson Wentz is the QB. No disrespect. But Wentz is our guy
Thank u CC thats what i been saying
Cris Carter: Great football mind. Great football decisions / talk. Nick Wright: Just a bunch of hypothetical.
I say keep it the way it is , foles seems like hes fine as the back up and plus we don't know how carson is goin to look when he gets back
I agree 100% don't trade him Wentz is not even healthy at this moment , plus Eagles can go on a run. Need to make sure their have insurance. Foles still has a future can play for 4-5 great years maybe more . The jets need wide receivers running back , need help on the defense Also if a team wants Foles . If any team get Foles he's the Franchise face. Most likely he's not getting traded.
As an Eagles fan who really takes time to look inside the team and the press conferences and interviews throughout the season let me say this in specific context to this video and talk lately about this "QB situation" or "controversy." Let me start off by saying this is all just hilarious to me as an Eagles fan as I said lol. I can confidently say I'm 99.99999999% sure Foles himself is perfectly fine and MORE than happy to serve as the backup QB for the Eagles. I'm almost just as sure Doug Pederson and the entire team feels the exact same way. You've (or at least I) can see this by what Foles has said himself when he's talked to the media time and time again since Wentz went down up until present. He states plenty of times that he fully acknowledges that Wentz IS the future and franchise QB of this team. Pederson has also stated the same stance on Wentz plenty of times as he IS the team's future at QB and how Foles is the next man up, I mean that's why they got him back in the first place. There really is no "controversy" or "situation." Now to answer how I think they should handle the "QB situation" is easy and basically seems solved already. I can see Wentz as the definte starter, absolutely no question there at all. And I can see Foles simply staying with the team serving as not only as a backup, but a vet-like mentor for the team for at least another year or very likely an extension of up to 2 or 3 depending on how long he decides his career in football to last (which this SB win definitely extended that wanting to stay in the league much longer and more notably WITHIN Philly). So there ya have it, not much of a situation at all, everyone seems to be in the perfect spot they wish to be in among this really happy team.
The real question is among the free agents/one year contract players, so many good players. Who stays who goes? Should be an interesting off-season.
I don't know any Eagles fan pulling for Nick to be our starter over a healthy Wentz, maybe a recovering one, but not a healthy one.
And Wright talking about giving away Carson for a round of first round picks sounds stupid. Foles, I'm sorry...looks like we have seen his ceiling, that last game looks like his maximum potential. Meanwhile Carson just started his career and looks awesome! I don't think Carson is at his full potential. So why would we trade a player who has the possibility to improve some more next year for Foles? In 5 years I could see Carson being an Elite QB.
If I'm Philly I let Nick decide if he wants to stay he knows he will be the backup to wentz but if he wants to be traded you make a deal for him. Foles deserves to be in charge of his future
nick foles should be the starting qb of the Philadelphia Eagles
Really trying to start a controversy. Very simple. Carson is the man moving forward and Nick has proven that he is a very capable qb and he will get a well well deserved raise. If Carson is not ready by camp then we can start Nick to start the year. And if we do trade Nick we can add depth to the O and D Line. Fly Eagles Fly baby 🦅🏆 SB52 Champs. Been waiting my whole life to say that
Foles should play all of 2018 and let Wentz heal 100%. His torn ACL/LCL is a 9-12 month injury. It happened in December, so it won’t even be nine months until a few more days. If Wentz is truly the future, they need to make sure he’s healthy. Will this happen? No, but it should.
I like both qbs but no starter until next training camp is over
We wouldn’t have made it without wentz. We just have great coaches and a great team who led files well. the end.
PREACH CRIS PREACH!!!!
Definitely keep him....
Foles is a system quarterback...the Eagles system where he flourishes and he knows it. I’m a Pats Fan, but Nick Foles is a great QB, when he like Brady, find themselves a round peg in a round hole, they can be extraordinary.
Boi!!! We ain’t giving Wentz or Foles away
Making a Super Bowl MVP who beat Tom Brady a backup is crazy. Quite a few quarterbacks can do well in regular season but not so many can win under the pressure of the playoffs.
Eagles are the new dynasty
Foles don't seem like he's looking to be a starter because he was ready to retire. He seems to be fine being the backup. We don't kno if Carson is completely healthy. Nik Wright just don't know what he be talking about.. Like where did he come from?? lol
key key Exactly
Key key, I dont think so dude. No one in the NFL is ok with being a backup. Esp a good qb like Foles. The reason he wanted to retire is because Philly was stupid to trade him in 2015 and Jeff Fisher is an idiot coach who knows nothing, and bascially ruined Fole's career, then he went to KC to be a back up to Alex Smith, who is a quality QB, so that meant no starts for Foles in KC, now with Wentz, same deal, so I'm pretty sure he wants to be "the guy" on a team somewhere...
Bobby Mira
How do you know Foles will do as well somewhere else? He was the starter for the Rams. You’ve seem to forget that.
HUY PHAM Right!! This offense was made for him we don’t kno if he could have the same success! Besides we don’t kno if Carson gonna be healthy.
Huy pham - where did I write that he would do well somewhere else? I never said that. I just said I dont think he's "ok" with being a backup and he probably wants to be the guy for any team that would make him the starter...
While Nick had an outstanding game, Unless things change this is Wentz's team
Cris finally dropped that ether.
Wentz should be the MVP period
Who keeps hiring Nick Wright?
It would be hilarious if CLE trades their 4th overall pick, PHI draft Barkley who basically already plays in the philly area, N. Foles disappoints CLE, his contract runs up, PHI signs him back the season after next.
There is no drama. The way Wentz played this year it should be cemented that Wentz is the starter, Foles the backup till he wants to leaves. Nothing more, Nothing less
Do not switch out people that got us our first superbowl win. Period. Stick to the family formula.
It would be great IF the Eagles could keep Foles. However, Foles will likely be free agent in 2019. Eagles can keep him in 2018, but will lose him next year no matter what, so trading him might make the most sense right now.
nick foles is obviously a back up but he has a lot of value so I don’t know if we should trade him. the problem is not know the recovery time of wentz n how healthy he is going to be. if he needs to miss some time then we should keep foles. if carson’s completely healthy then what we could do potentially (and this is just hypothetical) is trade foles to the browns for the #4 pick, draft saquon barkley, trade ajayi and blount for two draft picks, draft a back up and use the other for whatever. clement is a great rb2 in my opinion and we could get a lot for ajayi and blount also in my opinion. thoughts?
No controversy, clearly Carson’s team but keep NickFoles too ! Over the past 7 of 10 seasons our quarterback didn’t make it through the season
I'm with CC .. don't change the winning system. You have a franchise QB in Wentz and a franchise backup QB in Foles they both still under contract. I would renew both they contracts and give them the money they want even if Foles agrees to be on the bench. Athletes with ACL and LCL injuries have a 1 in 4 rate of a reoccurring injury. You know Foles can win you a championship and you have great faith Wentz can too. Keep your ace in the hole and go on championship run for a couple years. Even if you don't win anymore you still have Foles on the bench and in your negotiations you always can say "we want everything you got for Foles.. remember he won a championship in 2018"
Trade him simple trade value thru the roof Carson is obviously better foles stock is up right now move him
Hard to keep focus on the topic with over the top hot Jenna in view.Thanks to Cris for his insight..
9:35 Chris is done with Nick and is questioning his life choices loool
Trade foles out of respect so he can go somewhere and start Dude played a great end of a season and is now the Super Bowl MVP can’t expect him to go back to Being a back to a QB with a busted leg. Trade for foles for a possible 2nd or 3rd round pick to a respectable team. Foles has value now
I can’t even believe that we’re here to even talk about this...Go Birds.
Carson is the starter. Nick will stay as back up. Why not? The Eagles have a badass team the way it is. They know that. Keep foles as back. I don't think Nick cares if he stays backup. Just chill and get a second ring doing nothing now lol
Get value for Foles now, his value will never be higher.
Eagles are the def of Next Man Up :D
sending Foles to Cleveland says they hate him! lol
Nick should start .. Cause we play for rings .. Philly
He's a superbowl champion AND superbowl mvp. I'm sure he could care less where he goes or what happens to him after this year.
It’s crazy to think about that karsynn could never see another Super Bowl in his life. But they want to treat Nick like this.
YALL THE EAGLES HAVE STATED THAT WENTZ IS THEIR QB AINT NOTHING GONNA CHANGE THAT
I will always love Nick Foles for what he did, but he’ll never be on the level of Carson! Carson is a stud, nick played like a stud. There is a difference! I would love to keep Foles as a back up as long as he is ok with that roll, but if he wants to spread his wings and start else where, he earned that right and I would trade him, if and only if that’s what he wants.
The SMART thing to do is to keep both QBs. Carson Wentz injury will reappear next season. Then what? They have a DYNASTY in the making. Excellent defense, offensive line, QBs, recievers... KEEP THEM !!!If they trade Foles they're back to square one. Be smart Eagles. Keep them. you have a winner in BOTH !!
The common theme in Foles, Goff and others who are viewed as bad players is Fisher. Anyone who played for fisher needs to be re-evaluated
Can't help but think that Wentz run game drops because of the knee, which will affect his passing game.
Nick needa catch CC fade for the way he talkin down on him
Patriots gonna sign him
Nick Foles proofed that his NFL expiriance made him win a championship, Wentz didnt had any postseason expiriance which i really doubt he would have gotten the same results, regular and post season are diferent, Foles should be starter if Philly wants to be a elite team
Carson played scrub teams during the regular season. Foles carved up top notch teams in the playoffs including the juggernaut Patriots.
Foles deserves a chance to start in Philly.
jpmc04 Broncos d is not “scrubs” Nor is Carolina
No
Dude you can't be an Eagles fan. None of us think this way. I love Nick Foles, but we had this guy before during a full regular season. We know what that looks like. We'll take our chances Carson.
Just a good all around team. Qbs has nothing to do with it, I’d keep foles though since wentz is coming back from a MAJOR injury
nick wright be like "If Cleveland gave Philly a bag of doritos and a Code Red Mountain Dew for Carson Wentz... obviously Philly listens to the offer right?"
Trade Foles, you’ll get more for him now than ever
Browns should trade for one of them
Tell em again this man say trade Carson wentz
Chris Carter is crazy if he thinks PHI won't be trying to get a Kings Ransom for Nick Foles. Nick Foles needs to remember that this is the Not For Long league and try to break the bank after this win. PERIOD. If I were Nick Foles, I'd get out of Dodge real quick!
When did Tom Green become a sports commentator?
