not yet. but he's on thin ice. they shouldve lost a few more games earlier this year due to his play but the defense/ST/sproles came up big and bailed him out.

How many have we seen of those this season? He's not even close at times.

Tough situation. They're built to win now but appear to be missing a very important cog. Sucks, I just don't know how they rectify the QB situation

i like the idea from a few weeks back. revolving door of QB's until they can find the chip prototype.

Sign RGIII when the redskins cut him. Sport science will fix his knees.

I'm good with whatever Chip decides so I'm not really going to think about it.

My guess is Chip won't give him real money
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

Yep. Worst case, he gets one of those Kaeparnick/Dalton style deals where he gets a decent chunk of money up front, but there's no long-term obligation.

Kinda wish they had a guy they were grooming in house already, esp when your first rd pick is relegated to being a cheerleader. Grooming Bridgewater woulda been nice

I could live with the terrible throws if he had any arm strength to speak of but he doesn't even realize his limitations

Oh come on, he's not useless. He's not a star, but he's an NFL QB. I wouldn't lock him up long term, but he's not bad to have around while you try to replace him, which is tough to do when he keeps leading you to 10-win seasons. See Dalton, Andy.

His footwork in the pocket has been a disaster. It seems to be better when he takes the snap from under center, but still not great. One thing to be slow. Another to be heavy footed as a QB. He's not the guy.

I'm with you, but even if he's just an average qb, he can't turn the ball over. That's all I really ask. I think they're 5-2 despite him. The turnovers are inexcusable, and the decision making is extremely poor.

The punt style throws into triple coverage where he's had amazingly lucky BABIP so far are my favorite. No idea what the fuck he's doing

Foles is the ultimate team first guy.... So there's that. Perfect personality for Chip's culture building mission but other than that...... not very good at much else.
