I for one hope Hurts gets paid again after this season so he can continue being done even more.

Hurts is what makes the tush push unstoppable. So theres that.

Yes they were

So why did Wentz get sacked 50 times? Dan Orlosky didn’t seem to think they were the best when his friend Wentz was starting.

Hurts gets dinged for having a lot of talent around him… And that’s not exactly fair. But it is also absolutely true that he is playing with more talent (certainly on offense) than Mahomes, Allen, Jackson and possibly Burrows (our OL is certainly superior even though I know it’s got some weapons to throw to).

Hurts has a lot of talent around him and he uses that to get results. It isn’t always very pretty but he and this team win a lot of games. And he deserves a lot of credit for that because I do think as a leader he drives this team forwards.

@uncphillyfan who knew your rage post would amass 67 pages and get us to a Super Bowl?  
 

Can you please do another one this offseason if we end up winning this thing?

You mean in 2020 when Dillard and Brooks missed the entire season? When Lane and Seumalo missed huge chunks of time? When we had 14 different OL combinations because of all of the injuries?

None of that has to do with this season, of course.

Lurie to the media at the SB, regarding the RB position:

We "always" thought to pair a RB with a triple threat QB.

There you go, Lurie wants a QB who can run.

 

 

I would argue that this level of inconsistency for an entire amateur and professional career must be hard to overcome, but yet this dude has been a Heisman contender, MVP contender, gone to the National Championship, and the SB twice and is still only 26.

@Swoop corrected you before I could but who the hell cares what Dan Orlosky thinks??

🤔🥱so…that’s the excuse? Pay attention numbskull…you got some nerve calling someone a troll. Foh.

No the ef he didn’t. Dan Orlosky is the consummate Wentz loyalist that made every excuse imaginable on national tv for two years straight…one of which was disparaging the Oline…MANY others did as well. They weren’t considered "the best OL” then…for WHATEVER reason…why would they be in 2021 when Hurts was the official starter? The same OLine that Hurts got his first start as a rookie with against the #1 defense at the time that had 50 straight games without allowing a 100 yard rusher. The Eagles put up 40-23 and both Miles and rookie Hurts ended up with 100 yards. Corrected me?!! Foh.

edit. First start ever as rookie it was 24-21 Eagles. First year starter 40-29 Eagles.

I find it strange how the same people who claim that Hurts is only good because he is surrounded by elite talent are the first ones who are also claiming that the only reason Wentz struggled was because the team around him wasn't very good. 

For the kids at home, this is what we call a double standard.

They weren't considered the best in 2020 because they were absolutely gutted. That's not an excuse, that's factual. The only starter that played the entire year was Kelce. We lost 2 of them for the year and Lane/Seumalo both missed half of the season. That's factual.

They have had a great line for years now. It was great when they won the Superbowl. It was great the following years until that one outlier, because of injury.

Do Peters, Runyan, Tra Thomas, Jackson, Andrews not ring any bells? Hell, even guys like Evan Mathis. The Eagles have consistently put a top OL on the field for years.

Now either you just started watching football or you're trying to troll, but you are unquestionably, hilariously, embarrassingly wrong.

So they weren’t considered the best. Like I said, troll.  Foh 

I do think Jalen will need to have a good game tonight. I don’t think we can win by just pounding Barkley. Will need a balanced attack.

I also know a lot of the media/some fans will blame Siriani/Hurts for any failure in the passing game or any pass that doesn’t work even if it was the right thing to do.

Go Birds!

If he gets the Eagles a 2nd Lombardi, he can be "done" tomorrow.
