Foles stock has risen no doubt, but he's still Nick Foles. The guy was a toothpick away from packing it in to quit and pursue another way of earning his living which always makes a great story line, but doesn't necessarily make him the greatest QB ever to play the game. 
No team ever plays 16 consecutive super bowl games in a season . It's still just one game out of 16 plus the post season. 
Not the NFL, but  ...it's still just football. 
Suppose that  for example a 3rd stringer who hasn't started all season suddenly has to play because everyone in front of him in the pecking order is injured and pulls off the championship against all odds.. That happened for Ohio State and where is the fabled winning QB now ? He isn't and never was the greatest QB in college football history.  

Yep, it's happened numerous times before.  Jim Plunkett, Doug Williams, Jeff Hostetler, Tom Brady.......Plunkett went on to win another one, Brady became Brady, and the rest faded into oblivion.  Time will tell, but without Doug Pederson, I'm not sure I'm ready to anoint Foles just yet.  I will give him credit though, he played well within the system his coach provided for him......I mean really well.
