Nick Foles Trade May Not Be as Unpopular as Some Think

When the initial news broke regarding the Chicago Bears trading for quarterback Nick Foles, some fans in the Windy City expressed their disapproval of the acquisition for the nine-year veteran.

Most of their disagreements of the move was due to the fact that general manager Ryan Pace opted for Foles over free-agent quarterbacks such as Teddy Bridgewater, Philip Rivers, Marcus Mariota, and even Tom Brady. There were even possibilities of trading for Andy Dalton or Cam Newton, but Pace felt that Foles was the way to go.

After given some time to process this trade, it appears that more and more of the Chicago faithful are slowly accepting the addition of Foles.
