NFC offensive P.O.M. Nick "Napoleon Dynamite" Foles.

Eagles quarterback Nick Foles was named NFC offensive player of the month after setting the NFL record for passer rating in a month.

Foles' rating was a staggering 152.8 on a scale that tops out at 158.3, prompting Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians, who has coached a small handful of elite quarterbacks to give the second-year passer his props.

"A bright young star," Arians said. "He protects the football. He’s extremely accurate. He’s athletic. Coming out, you thought there was a lot of raw ability there. And he has the size and stature you’re looking for in a quarterback. So i'm not surprised at all. Chip’s done a great job of putting him in successful situations."



Chip is Chip Kelly, the head coach of the Eagles.
