No.  Like honestly if foles misses anytime we are screwed. Minshaw is meh and mclough is meh but hey they got rid of lee so 😀

And if Rodgers, Mahomes, Wilson, Brees, Ryan, Brady etc all go down then what? Maybe the Pats are fine because we've seen it before but all of those teams are screwed

Yes but minshaw/mclough would be a bottom 7 backup qb

In fact https://www.nj.com/eagles/2019/08/is-eagles-josh-mccown-the-best-backup-quarterback-in-the-nfl-ranking-all-32-including-daniel-jones-jacoby-brissett-more.html has us at 31 out of 32 only behind the Cowboys cooper rush

We are screwed if we have to go deep into reserves

I wouldn't even say we have to go that deep into reserves to look like we might be kinda screwed.  We've got a lot of primary backups, and even a few part time starters who haven't looked that amazing in limited action either.

So is everyone else...

There's a difference though, when it's our "reserves" vs their "reserves" and ours seem to come out consistently on the losing end.  We've got a few bright spots where it looks like we might actually have some nice depth...but a lot of spots where our backups and depth have looked just completely overmatched by opposing backups and depth.

If you've built a team around an elite QB like that as the linchpin of your entire team, sure...you expect that player is going to be irreplaceable.  But i think it's a different situation when your "star QB" is Nick Foles.  The whole premise in bringing him in, is that our team is supposed to be better positioned than most to succeed with just "decent" QB play.  I hope Foles is good, but he's not the same sort of guy who is going to carry your whole team like Brady, Wilson, Brees, Rodgers, etc. where you'd expect things to completely fall apart if they get injured.  Our team model should be better postured to withstand an injury without completely falling into shambles.

i think they are trying to get him bigger for campbells spot and subpackage dt

Allen just may be in the LT, Derrick Thomas, Reggie White mold he is just an instinctual generational defensive talent. His ceiling maybe higher than Von Miller 😤 Allen is a STUD. Just pray he can stay healthy you can just see his instincts kid is savage..
