It was the play in the fourth quarter right after the Devonta catch was overturned. Clean pocket and Jalen inexplicably bailed into pressure and threw the ball away.

I’m generally a Hurts defender but this was clearly a bad choice.

It was the perfect combo of a terrible play design and Hurts giving into one of his bad habits. There's no reason why 3 receivers should all be within 5 yards of each other like that. That's just stupid. And then Hurts bailed on a clean pocket to boot. So epic failure all the way around.

At what point can McKee look all world dominant and you guys stop finding Hurtscuses for why its not the same? McKee has only ever looked elite. Offense looks completely different, and bad with Hurts in. But theres always an excuse. No one could ever actually give credit for McKee doing amazing with all backups. Instead, its still excuses for Hurts.

At some point, I'm just going to assume Jalen Hurts banged your sister or something. You've gone round the bend with this.

Id like to see where those routes were headed because to me it looks like they are about to put that safety in to peril. Hes going to have to choose which route to follow and one is going to break wide open. But Hurts because of his bad decision is about to run out of time to let it develop.

Square peg, round hole. Which was basically the early Reid/McNabb experience until Reid adjusted and McNabb improved.

This is weird and useless theory. ( not your comment, the stupid judgement that Purdy is somehow smarter than Hurts because he dinks and dunks)

Stafford would be the worst run pass combo offense QB - Jupiter in a 4 inch hole

Did I just accomplish anything?

legit question though. Youre not the first to make the pre-emptive post about why a great McKee performance should not imply anything negative about Hurts. You guys know whats coming, which is telling. So youre making the pre-emptive Hurtscuses.

Prediction:

If Bowles is fired, he will be the next Commies DC.

McNabbs problem was that his accuracy was garbage. Hitting Baskett in the foot at age 29 is not system. It’s pathetic QB play.

I thought about that, but there's 2 reasons I say no. First, if the point is to protect starters for the playoffs, then I don't want the guy who has been our 2nd best lineman out there (which is more of an indictment of Cam, Landon and Jordan than anything). Second, if the Commies are going to play dirty and look for payback, Steen is likely number one on their hitlist.

Yea, I thought about the Steen retaliation angle. I’m just not sure you can bench all 5 starting linemen and if I have to pick one to play, Steen is the obvious answer.

And not necessarily for the whole game either. I think we will see some starters and key guys play but only for a half.

Against a bad team that's mentally in Cancun? Yeah, I'm not gonna take much from that, just like I didn't take much from them beating a bad Giants team last year. It's chicken and egg -- until I see McKee in a game against a good opponent with real ramifications, I'm not going to assume he can execute. But he won't get that chance unless Hurts gets injured.

If Hurts gets injured, McKee wins a playoff game, come talk to me. Winning meaningless week 18 games against teams that aren't trying isn't going to move me.

Wow, you picked the 1 mistake of the entire second half.

Does this validate you to the cult?

If you just look at the play design youll see a difference that has nothing to do with who they are playing. Same goes for watching the timing of the throws, decision making, and accuracy. Youll see things out of McKee that Hurts isnt capable of, and youll see things in the offense that you havent seen all year.

You only have to go back to this year's pre-season to see it again. It has nothing to do with the opponent. The scheme fundamentally changes with a legit QB playing.

Youll even see WR3 targeted! Very exotic concept.

It’s a religion. You can’t reason with it.

I just like winning. Foles, Hurts, if McKee takes over later on in 2030 and wins… Go Birds!

I really dislike Wentz as a human but he did a great job in 2019 and I saw it because Foles over Wentz was not my religion.

Do you have the capacity to accept that Hurts can be a great QB and still have a few flaws?

Goedert is running down field. Brown is running an out. It looks like the middle receiver is running the wrong route. Probably Dotson.

It's not who the opponent is. You can watch him in practice and tell he has better QB attributes than Hurts in almost every aspect.

@e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! The Bills do not have great WRs but they do have a top 5 offense. Yes it’s a good deal because of Allen’s freak beast abilities but also Cook, very good TEs, and a great O-line.

They drafted a WR high and he did not really pan out.

They tried bringing in some guys that were not a good fit.

Davis was a key piece as a 2 or 3 but he left for a pay day. He is back.

Mack Hollis was a real nice depth guy. It was weird to move off him.

Diggs is a weirdo but the soured relationship is not just 100% on him. (and you can’t pay everyone)

They got Cooks recently.

Their TEs have been Goedert injured this year. (Goedert himself has been healthy for once)

They did not decide to purposefully have bad WRs and they did focus on TE and run game.

I’d be surprised if it was not a priority this off-season.

I think they decided to go in another direction because they tried with diggs and he ultimately flamed out. Then decided with drafting Kincaid and cook to move in that direction. They’ve just done a poor job developing and making the wr corps better over time. It’s been a progressive worse each year. I tend to think they look to trade for an established WR like the did with diggs.

No. That doesn't even make sense. Maybe a flaw or 2, but not a few.

I completely agree...but that also means we have to toss out what Hurts did against the Raiders and Commanders...which essentially means he and the offense haven't been viable for months stacked on months at this point.

But I agree about Mckee.
