Eagles Rumors: NFL Network's Mike Mayock Says Nick Foles Isn't A Franchise QB

The Philadelphia Eagles missed out on the playoffs in 2014 without quarterback Nick Foles, who should be back to reclaim his starting job. However, NFL Network's Mike Mayock says that if the Eagles are trying to win a Super Bowl, Foles isn't their guy:

"If you take the assumption that you can't win a Super Bowl without a 'franchise quarterback' and in modern football history, who has won Super Bowls without one? Maybe Baltimore with [Trent] Dilfer and maybe Tampa Bay with Brad Johnson? And you could say maybe Nick Foles is like one of those two guys. But those two guys had two of the best defenses in the history of the NFL."

Foles passed for 2,163 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in eight games last season.
