Three years ago, ESPN’s Ron Jaworski cooked up one of the hottest takes of all time, taking the position that quarterback Colin Kaepernick could be one of the best quarterbacks of all time. Jaworski’s opinion somehow became news for his employer, feeding the four-letter network’s engine for several days in August 2013.

A year later, Jaworski offered up an even hotter — but far less memorable — take regarding quarterbacks Nick Foles and Russell Wilson. Given a choice between the two, which would he pick?

“I’m taking Foles,” Jaworski said. “Not even close. Russell Wilson is just . . . because of that system he is in. Russell Wilson plays with that defense, the best in football. He just managed the game very well. I think Russell Wilson has played terrific, a great maturity, but I’m going to take Nick Foles.”

Two years ago, plenty of you agreed with Jaworski. More than 22,000 responded to the poll question, and more than 43 percent picked Foles over Wilson. That number would be far closer to 4.3 percent now. Possibly even closer to .043 percent.

Wilson remains entrenched, and highly compensated, as a franchise quarterback in Seattle. Meanwhile, Foles is scouring depth charts for a place where he could be a camp arm at worst, the primary backup come September at best.

The fact that people with ties to Foles, like former Eagles coaches Andy Reid and Chip Kelly, aren’t clamoring to sign him suggests that things aren’t going to come as easily for Foles as they did the day he threw seven touchdowns and no interceptions against the Raiders.
