    Sanchez isn't better than Bradford lol what in gods name makes you think he is? Bradford isnt a terrible QB. Injury prone, yes but bad? No lol.

    His numbers aren't phenominal but they are better than Sanchez's and you have to take into consideration Bradford was thrown into a s-----y Rams team when he first came into the league while Sanchez was on a Super Bowl caliber team for his first 2 years and still played like crap lol.

    This Eagles roster looks like s--- right now. What else could we possibly do right now to get better? Unless we make some major, highly unlikely moves then Bradford is on a nearly as s-----y offensive team as STL. Who is he going to throw to? Riley Cooper? Josh Huff? Jordan Matthews and Ertz have major up side but come on. Sproles is a nice change of pace back but he can't carry the load. This will end badly. You can say i'm overreacting, but the way it's going right now, we will have a better shot at a top 10 pick than the playoffs. Chip is a great coach, but a d--- s-----y GM until proven otherwise.

    Alot of people talk s--- on Sanchez but I think he played great last season, the offense was actually more efficient under Sanchez than Foles. Bradford hasn't done s--- in the NFL. His best season was his rookie year and even that wasn't very impressive. I am absolutely disgusted with this trade.

    Our only hope is to make a big splash addition like Murray or Mariota, hopefully both. They both look unlikely right now. However they just said on NFL Network that the front runners for Murray are the Raiders, Jaguars, and Eagles. So we'll see. Guarantee if we go into the season with our current offense we'll be drafting in the Top 5 next year and Chip Kelly will be fired.

    Bradford's rookie year: 18 TD's, 15 interceptions, 60% completion percentage, 76.5 passer rating

    Bradford's last season (2013): 14 TD's, 4 interceptions, 60.7% completion percentage, 90.9 passer rating

    *Only played 7 games in 2013*

    You don't know what you're talking about Arch lol. In no shape of anyone's imagination was Sanchez great last year lol. Your offense was better when Sanchez was at QB because your O Line got healthy and McCoy began to produce again. Com'on, I'm not even an Eagles fan and I know this lol

    So what changed in the last few hours that made you all sure Bradford's now the starter when before everyone was sure he'd just get traded again? Did the Eagles announce something official?

    Murray reportedly met with Jason Garrett after the Mavs game. Had a 10 minute meeting which was reported to be "significant" and then both left to continue the meeting else where.

    @Kon there were some reports that Kelly really wanted Bradford. Hard to think that he'd really want a player just to trade away but other than that idk.

    The early rumor was that we swapped QBs and swapped 1st round picks. Nope. We gave them Foles and a 2nd round pick and a 4th round pick for Bradford. Absolute garbage trade.

    Arch dogg is just trolling about Sanchez being better than Bradford lmao. I hope Eagles keep Bradford and shows arch dogg how successful of a qb he can be. The eagles have a possible franchise qb right now and arch dog and the majority of eagle fans are emotionally worked up. If Bradford stays healthy, I guarantee you that he takes the Eagles to the playoffs.

    Lol yeah that's a really bad trade, I don't get it. Even if they think Bradford's their guy (which would be weird), hard to trust him with all the injuries. Sounds like they aren't getting Mariota then? Also Foles should be worth more than Bradford so no idea how the Rams got them to throw in a couple picks lol.

    Chip Kelly doesn't give a f--- and has balls, lol d---. If this doesn't work out though, he'll be gone in 2 years.

    How do you come up with this conclusion? And how old is Foles? NFL coaches and scouts obviously see potential in Bradford. Foles had one good year that was a fluke and I even told @Arch Dogg that then Foles fell apart. So arch dog is my proof for that statement. Foles was a one year wonder.

    The higher potential is an opinion. And didn't Foles get hurt last season too? But yeah Bradford was definitely injury prone, but I'm looking for him to stay healthy this year. Idk what it is I just have a good feeling about Bradford and have very high hopes for him.

    Bradford's injuries are a lot more serious not to mention they were reoccurring injuries. Foles didn't even need surgery I don't think. Bad trade for the Eagles but Bradford isn't awful by any means.

    Foles is two years younger. He set all kinds of records in 2013, made the Pro Bowl and won Pro Bowl MVP. I wouldn't call him a one year wonder. He was still winning last season before he got hurt. His stats were down because his offensive line was in complete shambles and he didn't have Desean Jackson to throw to.

    I hope guys are right about Bradford, but I just don't see it. In my opinion he's easily one of the worst starting quarterbacks in the NFL.
