He flinches before the even touches the defender's hand. Four minutes left down by six in the Super Bowl. There's a reason he's still unemployed but Philip Rivers, Nick Foles and Jameis Winston have all found new homes.

The same reason Alex Smith went ahead of Rodgers and Mitch was taken ahead of Mahomes and Watson: NFL teams do dumb shit constantly.

Why you did not need to send a 4th rounder to Jacksonville.

I would rather give up a draft pick and have Foles as a QB over Dalton any time.


I think Foles would have been released as well. If they had been patient.

Well that maybe. But then you would have to deal with other teams and just hope Foles picks you. I understand why they went after the guy they wanted. Losing a draft pick sucks, but I get it.

Dalton, Cam, Foles, and if you really hate yourself Winston were going to be available in some combination without giving up a draft pick. It's not like any of those guys are can't miss players. Have a list of who you like the most and sign the one who becomes a free agent that is highest on your list.

It is not how I would have handled things. I would have waited and if Foles wasn't released went with someone else. But I still understand the mindset of making sure to get the guy you want. It does not mean I agree with it.

That Cam gif makes me cringe especially considering the time that it happened. But I would still rather have him than anyone else on the list.

Yeah I would have excused the Cam thing if it were in the regular season. Jay Cutler torpedoed a great season for the Bears when he chased down someone who intercepted him and tore a ligament in his thumb or something. The Bears were 7-3 or something like that if i remember correctly. So I'm fine with QBs taking themselves out of plays.

Well your job isn't at stake. You have to picture yourself as Ryan Pace after signing Trevathan, Graham and Quinn and then realizing that...oh fuck this team that wasn't very good last year is now even worse.

If I knew that missing the playoffs again meant my ass I'd be falling over myself to give up a fourth round pick for Nick Foles.

When Cam Newton quits on the team by week five and the Bears limp to 5-11 Ryan Pace will not be able to say "Hey, at least I didn't give up a fourth for Nick Foles" and expect that to save his job.

I said I'm fine with it in the regular season. He should have dove in the Super Bowl.

If a guy isn't literally willing to die right there on the field in that situation I dont want him. I'd gladly get carried out of a stadium in a bag just to have that opportunity. Guy won the genetic lottery and gets to be a god, but he flinches because he's a pussy.

Cant stand that shit.

He got murdered throughout that game and kept coming back for more. He clearly misjudged the play in that gif and thought the ball was going to be deflected forward. He's not diving for cover

He's not even one of my favorite players. Overall he did come up short in that game but to act like he's a pussy doesn't square with what we've seen from him the last decade.

Let's be real, if you're a division opponent of the Bears you definitely prefer facing Cam Newton to Nick Foles.

:lol: I don't even think you believe this.

If the offense can get you 20 points you'll win a lot of games probably next year. Cam can get you 20. Foles will get you 3 and occasionally get you 30
