That pass to Britt was a great play by Foles. He scrambled to his right to buy time and he waited till Britt reversed field and hit him with a clutch pass. That was a big play. I think they probably punt if they had 4th and 15. And who knows if they get the ball back. by OldSchool 9 years 4 months ago Total posts: 1750 Joined: Jun 09 2015 LA Coliseum Pro Bowl Re: The Money Drive POST #3 Great stuff! I really thought GRob was night and day from the 1st half to the 2nd half. Hav seemed to be a little slow all game though with only a few bright spots. Thanks for the review.
