Us Philly fans especially should be over the hump of the BS protypical QB measurables.

Hurts has proven so clearly how so many other key traits are more crucial to being a Franchise QB.  Why not embrace that? Why is it so hard to root for the little guy that’s done nothing but overcome adversity?

 Man, Ham is really rubbing off on people here with these ideas of moves way in advance.

I think we have a backup QB for cheap here the next two years.... I don't see trading Pickett if he is a good backup for cheap.  I don't hope he gets on the field in games because that means injury for Hurts.    I don't think saying "hike " and handing off in blowouts does anything for him either.  

QB is an expensive position, a great way to manage cap is not having an expensive backup.   Mariota cost a decent amount,  was a waste of cap space that we can't get back.   I don't see them unloading a guy that they think is better and is much cheaper.  

Right,if you saw the "meanwhile". Just saying he is a tradable QB at any time we see fit to make the move. Personally I thought we stole the kid. He's young and has raw talent and has been a starter. He wanted out and Howie saw a quick way to grab a bargain QB who is worth more than we are paying him IMO.

I just love how his 13 career passing TDs and 13 interceptions in 25 career games makes him the superior passer to our QB1. Exactly just how extremely laughable the Hurts Hating Agenda swings so regularly here

I think this " agenda" you speak of.... way worse outside of " here"   

Could be you choose to ignore it, because you don't want to hear it.  But Hurts on here definitely doesn't get the " hate" like he does elsewhere.

I can’t even fathom how FL got into his head that Pickett is even a superior passer to Hurts? Just so clearly a guy with blinders on totally against our QB1

Where did I say he was superior? Why do you always put words in other peoples mouths then believe it??? You'd be a great politician. BTW I don't think Kenny is that far behind as Hurts lost a year last season to sharpen his passing game. I don't hate Hurts(LMAO) and I don't hate Kenny despite what moronic labels you put on people

But then Shew. Who we couldn’t win a game with was actually being argued to bench Hurts for. Would have thought lessoned would have been learned. Hurts took a mediocre team and willed them to win. 2021 team wasn’t very good. Rookie Smitty was the main receiver. Which I’ve always been high on him….but as a rookie….that was a huge ask. But had Quez and worse as the other WR. It was pathetic. Yet our QB1 wouldn’t allow that team to do anything but refuse to lose. He brought the attitude of a winner and competitor to all.

And choked on the big stage when it counted. How much do you spend per month on bronze statue polish? It has to be astronomical. You are so blinded by your loyalty,you fail to see Hurts as he is. Your man crush is truly pathetic to see and it's WAY overboard

Yet was proving himself by dominating at OK enough to gain respect for him as a player to draft him top five overall? Freaking guys like Pickett get overdrafted first round. Trey Lance…and so on. Who even knows how far Hurts would have fallen if not for us drafting him in the second round?

He had to transfer to play,he wasn't good enough to win the starting job,thus why he went in round 2. Hurts has great abilities in some ways,and lacks on others. Normal people can see this which explains why you cannot. Putting stellar (and they are) players in place is a boon to any QB. There is nothing more Howie can do for Hurts. It's time for him to step up and I see no reasons whatsoever we can't go deep into the playoffs or dare I say get to another SB. Yet somehow I am "the hater" even though my goals for this team are superior to yours

Hurts is super talented guy. But he’s made himself into so much more than that. He’s taken it upon himself… to do everything he can to max out his body and potential.

Nope,he needs to up his "brain game".This is the year he needs to do it. Add the quick reads and decisions and get the ball out. There is zero reason for him to hold the ball as long as he does. Your failure to see this doesn't change the fact he needs to do it. No hating,you can't do a fair evaluation because you are blind

Who said we aren't rooting for him???? I don't recall anyone every rooting for his failure. I can root for a guy and still see where he needs to put the work in. We're all sorry you can't. Now we have(or supposedly will have) a different offense. The play calling HAS to be better than last year. I'm calling for 12 wins while you are calling for 10,WHO is seeing more failure you or me? I wouldn't put up 12 wins if I thought Hurts was a failure. I'm counting on Hurts stepping up and becoming a complete NFL QB. How is that "hating"????

I do like Pickett’s competitive spirit. Don’t think he’s one of those that shrinks under the pressure….which are very crucial qualities.

He said he was "happy to be a BU". I believe he was put in a position to fail by being tossed into the fire. Hurts wasn't. He had snaps while Wentz was here. I think Kenny wants to lay back and learn awhile,which he was never given that opportunity, he went right into the pit. Look at Green Bay. Those drafted QB's have to sit a long time before they get their turn while other teams force them in out of desperation. I hope Kenny learns and grows at a pace that is nice, slow, methodic. Some guys just can't do well out of the gate in transition from college to the pros. I hope the slower pace, with less pressure will make him into a better QB. Regarding McKee we'll see in 2 years if he has the talent to become the 2 although he is more of a pocket passer. Time will tell he if stays or goes . McKee has 2 years to prove it

Pickett was definitely in a position to fail the Steelers O was dreadful and the OC was terrible

They were just brutal last year in Pittsburgh. 

Seen Mikel Bridges went to the Villanova Knicks lmao Knicks sent an massive haul for him as well 

 Been hearing Isaiah Rodger’s been playing well in camp so far was kind of the forgotten man for our secondary coming to the season. 
 

Got to love the surplus of guys we have that can hopefully play for us this year in the secondary.

We got a guy clamoring for him to be benched for the backup. Then the backup comes in and we can’t win without Hurts. All the Hurts Haters do is give credit to his teammates. How they do everything. Or worse yet that our QB1 is holding them back so much.

Want him benched for Shew. Claim Pickett is the superior passer, on and on with weak BS.

Why is it if everything is so superior that any other QB wouldn’t thrive here?

Shannahan can get wins with Garrapolo

But Hurts has to come in injured last game before the playoffs….so we can take care of business. He can’t even rest the week before the playoffs to heal up.

This was proven fact. Best team we’ve assembled the whole time Hurts has been here. Couldn’t just win one game so Hurts could be fresh as possible for the postseason push.

Seems kind of fitting to balance out the jock riders that give Hurts all the credit. Really poor balance on Hurts. Only QB I can ever recall that can’t get any criticism from fans though without the jock riders coming out saying we are haters

Lmao wow exactly what the other comment sums up the Hurts jock riders…. Minshew dropped what 34 on the Cowboys if Hurts started that game all we would hear is how it was all the D fault for giving up 40 Hurts did everything he could to carry the team lmao 

It’s so comical how the narrative shifts when it’s Hurts behind center C v anyone else the excuses are insane.

Terrible Giants no way in hell we could age taken care of business v them without Hurts they definitely the same caliber opponent as the playoff cowboys that year

Yet that’s all the Hurts Haters bring up. It’s all his teammates and great team he’s surrounded by. Yet proven fact that without him they instantly become a five win n team….at best.
