Regarding Hurts’ fumble last night, there are fumbles, and there are bad fumbles. Do you think his fumble last night was a bad fumble?

Maybe a better question would be was it due to poor ball security or just a good play by the defender

I'm going with choice B on this one

I agree the wording of the question could have been better, but as it was posed, it created a lot of dialogue in three different threads. The rather open-ended wording resulted in two different kinds of answers. Some were more holistic, focusing on the impact of the fumble, and for that matter any fumble, on the course of the game. Others looked at the question from an individual play and individual player performance perspective.

Got to wonder if there is any compensation for the Birds if he hangs em up

I hope you realize cerebral answers like this will get you shunned here

Joe and I have butted heads when I strayed into the overly cerebral. We came out of it shaking our respective heads, but with increased mutual respect. As Yul Bruner said, "It’s a puzzlement.”

Wonder if he(Lurie) can sue his agent for "non discolsure" and how in the world did he pass his Eagles physical? Obviously it harmed the Eagles who could have possibly signed someone else before the deadline

It's NP, I am here to offset any cerebral intentions 🤣

JMO, defenders are taught and work on punching balls out. QB's have many more things to learn and while they may get some work in how to lock a ball in defenders are bigger and stronger in the upper body. Hurts could beat them on a leg press but I bet he can't bench or dead lift near what defenders lift. You don't see many QB's that weigh 355. Big guys beat up little guys. It happens, no reason to get into big arguments.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/eagles-jaire-alexander-reportedly-steps-away-from-football/ar-AA1QfzRH He didn't retire yet. But he is thinking about it. Still the eagles org has been harmed. He should have removed himself from the Eagles while he contemplates his future,not after the deal is made,or possibly the deal was not signed and why he was absent yesterday. Still there should be something done as we could have signed someone else before the deadline passed.

My question would be did the Ravens know?? Should the Eagles get their 6 pick back?? Was the deal even signed?? Will be interesting to see how the league handles this

He practiced....I think we eat this and move on. We retain the rights should he decide to come back. Really bigger concerns....and Philips makes up for any of it.

IDK CB2 seems like a big concern, The fact Love stunk up Lambeau and made our CB's look good means it's still a concern. Not every QB is gonna crap their pants

Maybe I missed something but where did he say it was an out route?

He referenced the play drawn up I shared. It was Dotson that ran the Out. Fl just confused and all over not following along very well.

Speaking of out routes with the Pack sitting on the out routes i have to wonder why the Eagles didn't call an out and go

Seems like everybody has a big ‘tell’ on the Comeback route some how.

Gets so much easier if the O isn’t weak they are operating in

Hurts did fumble. He really was trying to get down to avoid it though. Just had that defender under his knee to block it. Which set up a fantastic Peanut Punch.

Play calls were not the reason Mailata slipped, Fred Johnson completely missed his blocking, Hurts fumbled or made any bad throws. Play calling was fine. Head coaching, game decisions at the end were questionable...and I think dumb. But players need to execute. Both offenses had issues with their players last night. Green Bay has the great O mind...doesn't mean squat when the players mess up

The great young O mind ,LaFleur, went with the opposite approach from what he’s tried before. He went with the low scoring shorten the game. Easily a way any team can get beat.
