RG3PO Coming to Town

Next up for the Eagles...the 3-6 Washington Redskins.  The redskins have been struggling this year and a lot has to do with the main man RG3.  RG3 hasn't been the same this year after he suffered a torn ACL at the end of last season.  The Eagles beat the Redskins in the first game of the season, which was thought to be a great start for the team and everyone thought the offense was going to be unstoppable.  The Eagles came back down to Earth after the first game and are now 5-5.

The Eagles defense this week looks to keep up, as they have been playing very solid over the past few weeks.  This will be a good test as the Redskins have been putting up about 30 points on average the past 4 weeks.  It could come down to a shoot out the way these two offenses have been playing.

Which brings me to Nick Foles, the talk of the town the past couple weeks...but not necessarily in a good way.  Yes Foles has been playing basically lights out, putting up a QB rating of 158.3 and 149.3 over the past two weeks which has never been done in the NFL, EVER.  But even with these performances people still aren't sold on Foles.  Can he play in the NFL? Yes.  Can he start for several NFL teams right now? Yes.  The big questions are whether or not he can be consistent with the games he is putting up or will he revert back to the Foles of the previous Cowboys and Giants games.  It looks like we will be able to get a better gauge on Foles after the season is over since there is no reason why he shouldn't start the rest of the games.  Being able to see Foles in crucial spots (maybe get to the playoffs in this sucky division) and how consistent he is for the rest of the season will let the Eagles know if they have to go out in the draft next year and get a new QB.

How about the Eagles go out Sunday and take back their turf, and finally get a win back at home(0-10, last 10 games) and take first place in the division.

EAGLES > redskins 27-17

GO EAGLES!
