To me this highlights reel, while encouraging, doesn’t answer the big “Jekyll/Hyde” questions about Foles.
For example, in contrast, a PFF study found that in 2014, he did not perform well under pressure in general.
In 2014, his accuracy percentage under pressure was 51.9%, which ranked 37th out of 39 qbs.
In 2013 it was much better (68.1%, ranked 7th of 41).
So I liked that vid too, but according to another view, the mystery remains—how and in what was was 2014 indicative, and can he play better than that?
He had clearly had some virtues in 2014, but also some flaws. To me, just being realistic, it remains unclear which qb the Rams are getting. (2014 or better than 2014?) Personally, I won’t have any realistic answers till I see him.
In the meanwhile I am content to be cautiously optimistic and assume that he fits the Rams play action offense and will do well.
So if Foles is schizophrenic so am I. In one hand I have the cautionary data. In the other I hold the “wait n see but also cautiously optimistic” card.
