So Jackson can make passing plays. Why didn't Harbaugh let him loose earlier!
He was throwing against a prevent defense. Chargers backed off and brought no pressure. Not there standard defense
Playing it safe with the running game didn't work for three quarters surely you change things up even if it's riskier against a pass rush. Jackson showed glimpses of being able to extend plays outside of the pocket. I know the downside of getting sacked /stripped, as happened at the beginning and end of the game. Either way the Chargers seemed to be one step head.

I agree they should of passed but with Jackson they can't do that. It showed he couldn't pass against chargers at all when they played proper defense. I fancy chargers to do well in new england.
Good news for Bears is the D is sharp and the offense isn’t firing. Bad news is we’re in a kicking matchup with one of the most unreliable kickers in the league. Lump on Parkey missing a games deciding field goal.

Dont understand the play calling for Ravens (I wanted Chargers to win). Trust your rookie, he went 6-1 Am sure the fans who were calling for Flacco to come into the game were probably calling for his head two and half months ago.
Same as Seahawks, you have got a quality big money Superbowl winning QB and you have the most run-centric offense in the NFL.
The Bears - you know you have achieved greatness or f*cked up when one of your plays gets given a name. I give you Cody Parkey's "Double Doink"....
What a miss Andrew Luck has been to the Colts (and NFL) last two seasons.
Cody Parkey should be nowhere near the fucking nfl. Absolute disgrace of a footballer.
As has been pointed out earlier the shot was blocked. He also scored 9 of the Bears 15 points. It wouldn't have come down to him if the rest of the team do their job. Also. Go Birds.
I’m in an actual state of disbelief. I called that before the first half had even ended.
Absolute shout. Foles is magic though. Bears should have kept driving at end they settled for a 40+ field goal with a dodgy kicker
He’s just beat us but I love Foles, the guy needs to get out of Philly next season regardless of what happens.
Cody Parkey is finished and that’s all I’m happy about, they guy has costs us so many points and gets paid to do so. No sympathy at all.
Foles will go where Foles wants to go. He is very comfortable in Philly. He hasn't had much success outside of Philly/Andy Reid. He won't be there next year because of money and the fact that the Eagles can't afford him but I would guess theres at least a 30% chance he retires rather than have to play somewhere else, though he will get some really good offers.
I was (just about) coming around to the idea that Parkey's miss is forgivable this morning, kind of relieved there was a tip on it - what a gutting result though.
Sure it was a winning kick, but we received the ball in Eagles half 2/3 times in the first half and didn't come up with a point - should have been home and hosed if the offence had shown up before half time.

0% chance he retires, he's under 30 and will command a big salary somewhere next season

Can he walk into a starting spot do you think? Would your lot take him, even?
Foles is just a tad too young to be our bridge QB and not talented enough to be a franchise QB.
He plays well at Philly because the scheme suits him I think. A dogshit offense like ours will not match up well lol.
(Incidentally I think we try to trade up to 4 for Haskins, and he busts, thus repeating the Bortles situation where we reached in a QB light draft. Yaaaaaaaay.)
