Can the Passing Game Get it Together?

That picture pretty much sums up the day for Nick Foles. Foles was under pressure basically every snap, setting the table for his worst game as a pro. He threw four INT’s, 141 yards (most of which came from a 70+ yard bomb to Stedman Bailey) and completed just 11 passes. Needless to say, there’s nowhere to go but up for Foles following that performance. He is certainly not the only one to blame. The offensive line played horribly for most of the game, seemingly no receivers were getting open, and Jared Cook still had the dropsies. Although St. Louis goes up against a tough Browns secondary, they have to turn it around if they want to win. Shortening Foles’ drop back and utilizing the middle of the field would be a good place to start…
