This is about Foles not seeing wide open receivers and missing the one's that he does see. If Keenum can just get the ball to the guys who have been open, the offense will be 10-20% better.
Again.. Keenum makes sense because of the ability to do things with his legs. They need someone who can pick up a first down once in a while on foot.
Hell.. they should add some read-option concepts to at least make a D a little less able to key so much on Gurley.

Are people starting to think about losing their jobs?There's got to be pressure coming from somewhere, right? I mean, Foles was signed and then extended by this staff and for him to be benched makes you wonder who made the decision?
I'd like to be a fly on the wall.

Yeah, its hard to imagine Keenum being worse. Foles has been historically bad. I was starting to pine for the days of Tony Banks. Now that is bad.
