Why are people assuming Hurts can't run a WCO type offense?

He's run like 6 or 7 systems between College and the NFL.

He's smart, works hard, and will pick up the system.

And he'll probably enjoy throwing to WRs with separation off the snap, instead of sitting in the pocket waiting for 4 deep to come open.

Been awhile. Always love your optimism.

Damn, Rap said the Steelers were already on the phone with Lemon when the Eagles traded up because the Eagles were calling and he wasn’t answering. 😂

Not sure what this means

This make-a-wish kid up there like:

Best thing I can say about Lemon, and a legitimate one, is that the Steelers wanted to draft him.

Means he's going to be a stud WR, but also will either pull out a gun or his D in public within 5 years.

Would be funny if AJ started making cryptic social media posts upset about the Eagles drafting a WR even though he is getting his wish to be traded to NE.

Tinfoil hat: Dallas said it was taking a defensive player but didn’t turn in the card officially. Pittsburgh thought it was safe to pick Lemon but Philly swooped in. Josina writes tweet that is overly convoluted as per usual.

So does AJ request a trade now that we drafted a WR?

Yep I figured it meant Pitt thought Dallas had made pick but in the end they hadn't obviously

really? WCO is all based on timing, footwork and high quality decision making which are all Hurts weaknesses. He really struggles with pulling the trigger when he needs to. I don't know if the newer WCO coaches have creating messaging that simplifies the play calling language, but the Gruden level play calling verbiage is way beyond Jalen....and I like Jalen, but a "man's gots to know his limitations".

That's just inevitable, he apparently already did this past season. Majority of fans accept it's happening post June 1st.

If Pats want to lock AJ down tomorrow and offered their 2nd this year and 2027 1st would you take it over a post June 1st offer of 2027 1st & 2028 3rd?

If nothing else, NO MORE EXCUSES for Jalen.

I'm a Hurts defender given his body of work. But he stopped running in 2025. Play better or you're gone in 2027.

Hes not that’s fair. Neither is Lemon, nor will he ever be.

I mean, peak AJ Brown was an all-pro. So, yeah, it’s easy to say that. We don’t have peak AJ anymore.

And if all you care about is production, look at what top slot receivers put up number wise. Yes, it is unlikely he is as productive as JSN or Nacua because they are among the very best in the NFL, but that is what top tier slot receivers do in today’s NFL. Neither of them are superior athletes to Lemon, and both outproduce AJ Brown at his best.
