These two tweets sum up the media's reaction to the Nick Foles trade perfectly

Nick Foles is a Chicago Bear! The team semi-confirmed it in a hilarious sponsored tweet, and that's all we're going to get for the time being thanks to some wonky NFL rules. 

How do we feel about the trade? Twitter's response was predictable in all the usual ways. 

The media's response, unsurprisingly, was a mixed bag. One one hand, you have a guy like ESPN's Louis Riddick – well known for his relationship with Matt Nagy – praising the move: 

Fair enough! A little optimism never hurt anyone. On the other side of the coin is Jason La Canfora, who's been running a Bears Troll bit for some time now: 

He's not wrong either! The Bears and Jaguars' trajectory doesn't look that dissimilar, although Ryan Pace doesn't seem as keen on letting generational defensive talent walk as Jacksonville does. Two tweets, two entirely different opinions, and both aren't inaccurate. Twitter: it makes sense, we promise.
