If we're xxxxxxx, er, "investing" in 2016 with Geno Smith at the helm, we may as well go all-in and have Petty be the #2. Geno falters or gets hurt, we get to "see what we have" in Petty with "talent around him". On a team full of unknowns and kids, why bother with a known-nobody "veteran backup"? We have Petty, if we need to go to the #2, we're already screwed, may as well play Petty. What happened to the cry of Fitz fans that this is an older team built to win now. lol #makeitupaswego Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He beat out Sanchez in Philly I believe, and has better potential. Foles is no savior by any means, has the same turn over issues that have plagued our last two young QBs, but does have a strong arm. Aside from the one magical year, his stats are pretty identical to Geno, but he was in a better system. Last year, he was in a bad system and his stats tanked (but I also think he got benched when Gurley finally took off) so as a possible back up type player, can't hurt to try. I think Denver is still hoping to sign the Conquering Hero. They were really interested after all. I Agree, could see Denver getting involved here. Also Andy Reid had Foles in Philly, needs a backup in KC. Jets can offer a starting nod or to compete for the top spot 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
