I kind of wonder if this move was from the top rather than from Flores. It just does not go along with the “may the best man win” scenario he’s been pushing during camp. Game 3 will be interesting.
I think we took a few steps back this game... Coach Flores needs to establish who he wants to start the season by Monday and that quarterback has 3 weeks to get in rhythm with his offense..
O-line looked terrible. Neither QB made a strong case for being the starter. If anything, Ruddock was the most entertaining to watch, scoring the only TD followed by a 2 pt conversion. Preston Williams is back to playing Miami football. Dropped a couple. Defense certainly was playing better. Many starters did not play. It will be interesting to see who Flores names as starting QB for game 3.
I’m glad I’m not the one who has to make the decision on the quarterback. Neither one of these guys have looked good and Fitzpatrick seemed like he wanted to fall asleep on the field.
We know the team isn't going to be good this year. Eagles were looking for a veteran backup and just signed McCown out of retirement. Could have been a place to trade Fitzpatrick. Again, there is no point in seeing Ryan Fitzpatrick out there. Just start Rosen and go 3-13.
The eagles didnt have to give up anything for McCown so that is always a better option.. But im sure teams will start calling if Fitz doesnt win the starting job.
