Isn't Wentz not back until like, 4-5 games into the new season? You stick with Foles until Wentz looks like he's 120% healthy. Then you trade Foles. The problem is, the Eagles need Foles to show out in those first few season games. If Foles goes like, 0-5 or 1-4, that will destroy his trade value, SB MVP or not.
Foles probably will suck. Historically, he's pretty much sucked. Patriots are a bad defense. So... If healthy, Wentz also would likely regress. When you flip a young emerging QB's schedule from easy to 1st place finish quality, they tend to struggle a bit.
I do agree that Foles in any other situation, likely to fail. Almost guaranteed. I wouldn't trade for him with a bucket of beans. But in this situation, in this new offense designed just for him, he's thriving. That's special. Why wreck it when you can easily sit your rookie while you ride this as far as it can go.
So many teams in the NFL are desperate for a good QB though. You have to have a reliable QB to win and this league and Foles was exactly that from the 2nd have of the divisional round game through the SB. I imagine many teams without a qb would take a flyer in hopes that his hot streak continues and that they can put the right pieces around him much like Philly did.
what if they trade Foles, but again Carson Wentz I agree, this are going to be a lot of pressure on Wentz, what if Wentz doesnt play well, would philly fans would boo Wentz, clamoring for Foles? and that could really happen because Wentz injury, and the injury is worse than Watson, since around the the superbowl it was announced he injured his LCL too, so it was both his ACL and LCL, Carson will try to rush his rehab to be back for week 1, then that could be bad for his health, so could struggle during the first games, while super bowl hero is sitting in the bench, and dont forget the eagles fans are not very patient, and they will pressure if Wentz struggles a bit in the first games of the season. I would even make Foles be the starter for week 1, especially with the presentation of the banner and all that stuff.
