Four OCs with knowledge of those plays have not been able to make them a part of the scheme. I guarantee Sirianni isn't vetoing an approach that has shown to be successful. It's the QB. He clearly doesn't want to turn his back to the defense to fake a handoff. We never throw when Hurts is under center.That said, Hurts offsets his limitations as a passer with above average accuracy and a nice deep ball. His game is further enhanced by his scrambling and running.So, all-in-all, he is an asset at the position. But be honest with yourselves as to how Hurts is succeeding as a QB.It's funny how I didn't want Hurts running so much for fear of him getting hurt but they're barely having him run at all nowThey just can't have a happy medium I guess
16 hours ago16 hr 17 minutes ago, Sack that QB said:Thoughts on Chris Simms' Jalen Hurts comments about him being solely responsible for why the offense is the way it is?He said something like "I've heard from people in that building who say they aren't changing the offense because Jalen Hurts isn't having it if they try to change the offense. Nick Sirianni was the OC of the Colts where they routinely made adjustments week to week and he didn't just go to Philadelphia and forget how to run those kinds of offenses."He's gone on record many times saying the offense is the way it is because it's how he wants it. IIRC he even said it in the 3rd person lol

He had one sideline incident last year and some fans didn’t like it.I actually liked what he did - the only guy on the defense with a set of nuts to standup for his teammates.This defense has become soft - need more guys like Brown and CJGJ.He is awful, his only asset is speed and yes he uses it recklessly. He just launches himself into people, he has no discipline. And no it wasnt just a sideline incident, he's had multiple personal fouls on STs the past two years. If he was any good, they wouldn't have drafted mukuba.
16 hours ago16 hr 55 minutes ago, Ace Nova said:When was the last time he started? Some of your thought processes are laughable, "Sydney Brown is reckless and can’t start because he got penalty two years ago”lolLike seriously?I think pretty highly of Fangio. If he would be starting over a rookie in Mukuba, he’d be starting. There’s a reason why.

If you’re designing the offense to the QB’s strengths, Hurts shouldn’t be running for 16 yards in two games. If the QB isn’t running, Hurts likely isn’t the best option at QB.Remember when McNabb stopped running with the ball? I sure do

It's odd that they don't have Hurts run more (just please not into the teeth of the defense lol) to help out

Some of your thought processes are laughable, "Sydney Brown is reckless and can’t start because he got penalty two years ago”lolLike seriously?You are answering your own question. When was the last time he started? Why did Vic put McCollum in over him last year when there were injuries? Why did Vic put in Epps over him last week when Blankenship left?

He’s been known to favor people and it’s no different here. I’m pretty sure he’s the reason Isaiah Rodgers is no longer an Eagle.
15 hours ago15 hr 1 hour ago, NOTW said:Every other team is praised for tailoring the offense to the QB's strengths, and that the offense may look different when a change at QB is made because you're working with what each QB does well.People forget how much fans complained about Foles at first when he replaced Wentz in 2017, he didn't look good initially. Until they went back to look at what worked for him under a different coach and OC, and then adapted to what he did well. That worked. They didn't just force Foles to run the playbook, they adapted to him. Granted that's for a backup situation not a long-term starter.Foles earlier replaced Vick, and obviously Foles couldn't run like Vick so they can't expect the same.Sorry for being obtuse, but what does this post have to do with Hurts and a new OC? No change has been made at QB. The only constant is the change to the OC of this Team, right?

If it’s because Vic played Slay and Mitchell over him that’s a dumb reason. Obviously he’s not the be all end all but he knows a hell of a lot more than anyone else outside the team. It’s silly to think there’s not a football reason he soured on him.

14 hours ago14 hr Garafalo really hints towards major tension between AJ & Hurts and it could be a "bloody off-season". Does say winning can cure all but man I don't like the way that sounds.
14 hours ago14 hr 3 hours ago, AmericanEagle77 said:Your because doesn't even make sense as an answer, that was literally the thing about Foles, he went into Hall of Famer mode late in seasons and when he got in that mode, half the time you just lost by default. The situations may be different but I don't get why 'Jalen plays great in big games' is the response when that was also one of Foles' strong traits when he played for us? Can you elaborate?Why exactly does this make his Super Bowl MVP count as League MVP, but that doesn't apply to anyone else?Well, I don’t think their situations are comparable. Wentz was MVP of the league until he was injured. Clearly he was going to get a chance to get his job back. You asked why the SB MVP thing is brought up for Hurts and I answered. Foles has nothing to do with that answer.
