Donovan McNabb is always good for voicing his opinions no matter if anybody doesn’t really want to hear them. The latest is his opinion on the current Philadelphia Eagles QB Nick Foles. Foles was pretty impressive for the Eagles last season when he started 13 games and threw 27 TDs and just 2 INTs. Don’t tell McNabb that, however. The former Eagles QB is very opinionated about all the current NFL QB’s performances on the field, so now it’s Foles’ turn to get a taste of McNabb’s expert analysis when asked if Foles could be a franchise quarterback.
“I can’t answer that but if I had to give a take, I would say no,” he said, as transcribed by NJ.com’s Matt Lombardo. “I think what he will do, he won’t do what he did last year, that just won’t happen. I see him being maybe a 25 touchdown, 8-10 interception guy. They’re trying to have in the mind of Nick Foles, you don’t have to take chances all the time.”
This isn’t to say that Foles is already in the upper echelon of Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, but it would be nice if McNabb would just give the young QB’s some credit some times.
