Chiefs fans happy with Nick Foles signing, but Cowboys fans are upset
As Terez A. Paylor reported Wednesday night, the Chiefs signed quarterback Nick Foles.
The move gives the Chiefs an experienced quarterback behind established starter Alex Smith. But, given the injuries that happen each year in the NFL, it’s good to have some insurance. And most Chiefs fans were happy about the deal.
Heck yeah, the @Chiefs got Nick Foles!!! That's the QB I wanted to trade for in 2013 instead of Alex. Now they have both!

Nick Foles to the #Chiefs. I like it. He's an experienced backup who knows Andy Reid's system. Great insurance for a possible Smith injury.

Philadelphia Eagles fans were thrilled about the news, but it had a lot less to do with the Chiefs gain and more with the Cowboys’ loss:
Foles felt flames dancing around his feet for even considering Dallas. He made the correct, wholesome, Nick Foles kind of choice with KC

Always liked Nick Foles. Glad to see him land with Big Red in KC instead of going to the Dallas Cockroaches

Nick Foles has spurned the Cowboys to sign with the Chiefs. At least he has some common sense.

The news wasn’t received as well in Dallas. Backup quarterback Kellen Moore suffered a broken ankle, so fans there wanted Foles:
Nick Foles obviously hates playing football since he chose to sign w/ KC over Dallas. #NickFoles #DallasCowboys

Russell Westbrook re signs with the Thunder. Nick Foles signs with the Chiefs. I was hoping they would end up with my Spurs and Cowboys.
