We’ve had slow non pass catchers even in the  slot.

So yeah I am talking about actual football players. So when I say speed WR? I am talking about a guy that catches the ball.

You go to bat for Fields. Make excuses. But he doesn’t bring all the good traits Hurts does.

Once again how would Hurts fair in Chicago?

Speed has nothing to do with catching the ball

So AJ and DSmith are too slow for you?

You’ve been missing it the whole time us what I’m telling you

The point is Hurts has the Oline, Hurts has the weapons, As of this year,there is nothing more Howe can do for Hurts,he has it all now. It's showtime

Yes because his Oline SUCKED,that's not an excuse that is a fact. That is not "going to bat" for him,that is stating why he looked bad in chicago. Are you now going to argue he had the Oline and weapons Hurts has?

IDK any QB that would look good with a swiss cheese Oline

True. But in football at WR. I’m talking about a pass catcher that can catch.

I’m talking about what we need to compliment them

We're not ever going to put a crazy slow WR on the field. Most WR's can run a 4.5 or better

Well we ran two TE sets a bunch with Stoll out there.

Actually Hurts was punished by Rosie. Team was terrible coming off 4 wins. Old and capped out.

I’m saying Fields is no franchise QB. You kept giving Fieids excuses. But actually last offseason you were high on the Bears. You talked about them winning the division and such.

His Oline was better than Burrow took to the SB

So 4.4 isn't enough,gotta have 4.2 even if they can't sustain it?

I never said he was a franchise QB,please. His excuses are he has no Oline. I have zero clue how he would do if he HAD ONE. That is not excuses,that is reality

SO, let's just pay Devon Allen to stretch the field for say what 15 million a year? He's one of the fastest men on the planet

Any slot guy posting stats tells me not a whole lot. I don’t need him getting garbage time stats. Or even piling up stats in one matchup so much. We need a guy to make a catch deep and to give a couple of underneath YAC plays.

You need reliable options and threats on 3rd down.  You execute on 3rd downs when the whole world knows its a pass... that's how you keep the ball and score points.

Yeah I’m not thinking about the slot guy so much here. Just need him to make that one deep ball catch and a couple YAC designed plays a game.

Two different skill sets.  Speed and YAC.   I'll take a quick guy that can get open in a phone booth,that guy will have the YAC.  And also function in the red zone.

The take the top off means nothing really with a QB like Hurts... teams aren't fearing that deep throw to a limited #3 WR. They aren't double teaming that.  

Focus is on the other guys, that's where a good slot ...or if you put one of the 2 main guys in the slot and Parker on the outside.   But the speed guy without the shifty moves...not going to benefit in the slot

Poll on radio... who would you rather have as Eagles QB over Hurts.

Discussion going on with names... consensus amongst the hosts... Mahomes, Allen, Burrow and Lamar.

Then some other names.

Not getting into the other guys... but i wouldn't pick Lamar over Hurts.   I don't care that he is regular season MVP etc... just not a fan of the running QB.  Hurts at least offers great short range accuracy...and already established relationships with the players.
