PLAYER SPEAK QB NICK FOLES

Foles was the second quarterback in NFL history to begin a season with 19 touchdown passes without an interception. He threw his first interception last week against the Lions.

• On coach Chip Kelly: "He really has a huge impact on us when he speaks or how he does things. He really cares about us, and you really go out and play for a guy like that."

• On his growth: "I think just running the offense I'm getting more comfortable day to day and that just goes with working on the fundamentals and fine-tuning everything and working on the craft every single day I go out there."

COACH SPEAK CHIP KELLY

The 50-year-old Kelly is in his first season as an NFL head coach, coming from the University of Oregon, where he was 46-7 in four years.

• On leading the NFC East: "We're on a one-week season. That's how we approach it. Our focus and attention are totally on the Minnesota Vikings. Standings don't mean anything until the end of the year. We haven't talked about it."

• On conditions last week: "Obviously your game plan changed because of the conditions, but our guys really embraced [the snow]. They loved playing in that. Our guys had a lot of fun."

• On people doubting the system early in the season: "I don't think anybody in this building wrote us off and those are the only people that count to us, so we didn't pay attention to any of the outside noise."
