So you either go with him for the po games and say he can handle the pressure or you punt him and bring home a bag full of goodies to strengthen the team further. Could make a dynasty out of it....

Watt-Zeefuik Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 So honestly, no idea what Foles wants, but he 29. He almost retired two years ago. If I'm him I honestly think about telling the Eagles, "you know what? I'll dine for free for the next five years every time I go out in this city. This was a special team and I'll probably never be Super Bowl MVP again. Hand me a contract extension, a signing bonus, a local endorsements deal, and then hand me the baseball cap and the clipboard and call on me if Carson goes down again." Probably not but hey maybe.

So you'd rest on your laurels and stop pushing yourself? A Superbowl winner's ring cannot be taken away, neither can a Superbowl MVP accolade. He's young enough to move franchises and try to make his name as a first choice QB. But I do agree that he should maybe take a year to milk this triumph for all he can, considering he came in as a replacement in december.

Peebo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Amazing victory for the Eagles. For once, Brady couldn’t manage the usual heartbreaking comeback. Fair play to Philadelphia and Foles. I certainly wrote off their chances of going all the way when they became reliant on him. He’s looked shite for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alwaysthereinspirit Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Well that was a tough loss. Better TEAM won. I'd have taken 33 points prior to the start and felt good.

luckyBatistuta Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Congratulations to the Eagles, a well deserved Super Bowl win. They took the game to the Patriots from the start and never let up. The atmosphere in the Brewhemia party was brilliant, with about 90% of the place rooting for the Eagles. Was gutted near the end, because of my bet though.

Maple Leaf Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Highly entertaining game, but I thought the normally neutral Chris Collinsworth displayed a bias toward New England.

ri Alban Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) If all games were played at the pace of that game, especially the first half, the NFL would be the most popular game in the world. I feel sorry for the companies who paid big bucks for commercial break slots. Two QBs playing hurry up john Madden.
