I thought it was three to be honest. He should not be bouncing around like that if he didn't have some major defect. If the game gets off script too much he mentally breaks down.

By advanced stats, Foles is a middle of the pact, average QB that would be lumped in the category with the Dak Prescotts, Eli Mannings and Joe Flaccos.

He played way over his head in the Eagles SB run, but it was mostly due to them having a super stacked team around him. The same went for Carson Wentz.

Wentz's has accuracy concerns that went back to his rookie season. Even in 2017, he had bad numbers throwing down the field but the Eagles had remedied these problems mainly by surrounded him with elite talent. I'm still not sold on Carson Wentz.

That 2017 Eagles offense was loaded and the people who wrote them off after Wentz's injury that season were underselling them. They were still stacked last year, but were hampered with injuries.
