philafan4o8 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I was not a big fan of this guy but I feel bad for him. They put him out there with Wentz at WR and he is just taking a beating. Lol they are ruining his career before it even starts. Doug said they had some "packages" for him. I can tell they spent a lot of time on these "packages." If the Eagles lose to the Browns, you let Hurts finish out the rest of the year to see what he got. If Eagles lose out, grab Fields... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that's not going to happen but that's the way I'd go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damanick10 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 We need to be in a blowout so we can see Hurts in real action. Wentz will be playing all year unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleJoe8 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Hurts hasn’t been really impressive, but I don’t entirely blame him. QB is a position that needs to get in a rhythm and the flow of a game. Hurts can’t do that coming in for a play here and there. It wasn’t a smart pick at the time, but now they’re compounding the issue by not playing him smartly in games. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochis_Calhoun Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Like everyone says, the Hurts plays are only misdirections if you have him throw it occasionally, having him come out under center and then putting Wentz out wide is the most toweringly stupid play call it's possible to imagine, Doug deserves all the media ass kicking he can possibly get for that and a bit more on top, it's risible. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hard to be impressive when every time he goes in the defense knows what the play is. As soon as he’s on the field, they know it a run option. The two times they’ve actually allowed him to throw the ball, he’s completed both passes. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them is a passer that can run, the other is a runner that can throw. There is a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Shiznit Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 This is a lost year anyways, why not use it to get a better read on Hurts' viability as a future starter? Makes too much sense, and that's why we won't do it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipiggles Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Hurts was a wasted pick the very second we sent the name in. Complete waste, but hey most of our second rd picks usually are. Sidney Jones anyone? Hurts= BUST 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I absolutely agree the pick didn’t make sense at the time, nor does it now the way he is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EazyEaglez Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Wentz and Hurts. Both drafted by Howie and as such both are concerning players to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTW Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Reporter noted to Doug that having Hurts in the defense knows it's a run. Why not take Wentz out instead of fool no one with him at WR, utilize the spot for an actual WR and have Hurts throw sometimes? Doug said yeah that's a good idea, we'll look into that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portyansky Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 The only way Hurts starts is and injury to Wentz or we are eliminated from a playoff spot. Sorry, but that's just the way it is. I do agree they should let Hurts pass the ball. And he has. But it seems like Kelce likes to hike the ball at his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblah Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 we haven't had enough time to evaluate hurts. he needs to be in for a few games before you can really see how he is doing. i think we should go ahead and switch to him now and bench wentz for the rest of the year. its better to have a higher draft pick at this point than win this season. whats the point of winning the division this season anyways? i think we need a new coach and then let the new coach determine if he can do something with Wentz or go for a new qb. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTW Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I would not be surprised if we're in the same situation next year: Wentz starting with Hurts sprinkled in just a little bit more. I don't think we see Hurts starting unless Wentz gets hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never loved Doug as a HC but I admired and respected him. Now i just think he's being exposed as a complete fraud and a dope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
