Can't wait for the day Lurie extends Hurts in here. Gonna be pure comedy!

Not happening...you're going to have a long long wait...but when he's traded it will be pure comedy

watching you guys meltdown and say how you're done....pass the popcorn please.

Hurts’ best play of the day

This playcall has no chance and I refuse to believe Ertz was an actual live route in the progression and not the world’s slowest clear out. It makes no sense to throw that pass because it didn’t have a chance to work. I think Ertz needs to hit there quick out and then we’re going for it in 4th and 4.

Those posts aren’t a defense of Hurts. We just have too many plays that have no prayer of working.

Think it's because they only run like 8 plays from under center and half are runs, the other half are bootleg, and none of them are effective. At least that's my rationalization.

Every single bootleg they run has a dude right in hurts face when he turns around, meanwhile every bootleg against us has the QB strolling around with nobody within 10 yards

We actually ran a straight dropback from under center, so that’s a start.

@ManuManu deciding to torture us this morning 😅

That was Jaws and his interceptions. I don’t think Hurts was even born yet.

And then McNabb

And just for fairness, a Hurts turn down.

As an eagles fan watching Hurts and this offense this year, curious why you’d be excited to see Hurts get extended.

We see way too many plays like this. I’m not sure if Wicks is schemed up by putting the middle linebacker in conflict or if it’s just a coverage bust, but it doesn’t matter because the play is dead on arrival due to an unblocked blitzer.

Are we the only team that gets blitzed this relentlessly when we line up under center?

I've been saying this for weeks. They need to ish-can the condensed sets immediately and use more 10, 11, he'll even 20 personnel.

It will give Hurts more passing and running lanes and put our best players on the field

Hurts just needs to throw it faster, I guess.

Or is he just supposed to adjust all these routes on the fly before every snap?

Well I guess we can't do it now. But maybe when we have at least 1.5 healthy RBs again

Yeah I'm not seeing anything all that inspiring from Mannion so far. It's like he was relying on the screen game alone as an answer to C0 looks coming into the season, and now that those aren't working (just as they never have during Sirianni's tenure) we're back to 2023 debates of why Hurts doesn't "call more hot routes" at the LOS.

It’s why I posted the statistics today about hurts not having as many designed runs over the past couple years and him just not running as much. He needs to utilize that aspect of his game. If he can’t do that any more then it really levels the playing for opponents. Hurts is inconsistent as a passer. Can be great in moments and not good in others. So defenses will live with him having to beat them with his arm. Hurts himself and coaches need him to utilize his legs as it makes him and the offense more dynamic.

I was also thinking this earlier today, I am surprised Josh Allen has been as durable as he is with how much he’s runs. I get he’s a bigger guy. But he has taken some shots as a runner and not missed much if any time due to injury or concussion.

When Frankie Luvu lit up Hurts in a pile and he missed games with concussion, that was the moment his running started to fall of a cliff. I am not blaming Hurts at all for taking care of himself but ever since, the player and team have made sure to keep Jalen safe. But the impact has been limiting a strength of his.

As for Sirianni taking the blame for stuff, its what all good managers do. One of my best managers was very much, leave it with me, don't worry etc. And its the same approach I take now.

If you want employees to be loyal and operate without worrying about mistakes, sometimes you gotta take one for the team when someone messes up. The fact few players leave the team and really get on Sirianni suggests there is a public facing doofus HC and the people manager internally that isn't that.

Every HC will leave the team, so Sirianni will too (my guess is end of season at this moment). The disrespect towards him, when in face of the team's record under his leadership, is kind of wild though. Aaron Glenn is a HC in the NFL, as is Brian Schottenheimer. As was Mike McDaniel and Brian Daboll.
