I focus on his passing ability because that's what a QB does. He is a great player, but not a good qb as of yet. I am only going by what's on tape.

That is what I believe about Hurts. He ranks right about the Jimmy G and Ryan Tannehills of the world. He needs his running to get to their level, just his arm he would not rank as high as them.

If he could throw like Tannehill, he would be dangerous. He should focus on his arm. He has legs down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the one that actually said it's just preseason but it was a nice drive and encouraging I gave him a compliment on a different post when we were discussing Hurts. Yeah it’s just a preseason game, but let’s be real for a moment. How many people would feel like its just preseason if he threw three picks like Jordan Love did?

Consistency with his arm and needing to read multiple options before taking off. I've only seen jalen get desperate with the ball one time and that was the Giants game.

Jalen Hurts is not without criticism, but, some people around here are never to shy to rip Jalen, but pretty much shut the eff up when he does well. I just call people out on it. The only people who seems to be offended are those who might be doing the very thing I’m talking about. Why do we need to say it if he did something well. We are discussing his improvement, so we are talking about the things he needs to improve. But to shut you the f up, I thought Hurts was decisive on most of his passes, so he assessed pre snap what would be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On tape three years ago Mialatq looked like trash. Now he’s one of the better young tackles in football. Hurts just turned 24 years old and is still a work in progress. Wentz started the league at 25-26 and people were saying he was still young just two years ago. Dare I say it, but guys can get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly don’t support him. You support the 4th string quarterback who wasn’t even good enough to deserve time in a preseason game. But hey wall all gotta root for someone I guess.

The only issue I had with last night was the rolling to the right again. Dude is straight Zoolander and teams will prepare for it. He learn to step up instead of out, and he may end up surprising a lot of people. As of now, his bad habits will eventually get him killed.

So don't like developing a project QB means root for another team? To your first point. Most running quarterbacks who feel pressured tend to move to the side of the field they’re most comfortable with. It’s something that likely won’t change so you’ll either need to deal with that or as you mentioned root for another team. Getting to your second point. To be clear I don’t care which player leads the Eagles to the championship. With that being the case I’m not going to openly root against the starting quarterback of the Eagles by openly rooting for his backups, backups, backup. Show me you can do something (you know like winning the super bowl) then maybe I could get into rooting for the backup replacement, but hey if you think this is okay then more power to you.

I want a guy who wins from the pocket, and will play for a long time. A running QB will have a short shelf life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel those who support backups aren't trusting either the health or the ability of the starter. If hurts was a more complete passer, I feel others would be questioned far more. He isn't. He came in with deficiencies that are rarely overcome and he is too reliant on his legs because he knows he isn't strong in those areas.the areas he is weak at are what you want your QB to be strongest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of quarterbacks capable of using their legs who have had long careers. For every so called quarterbacks that can run with a short life there’s 50+ pocket passers who are out of the league in 3 years, but continue with that tired rhetoric there Jimmy the Greek.

Shalodeep Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I like his passing decision making , his overall character, his mobility in moderation, and how well he protects the ball. These he has in spades and needs little to no refining. I don't like his decision making in the rpo, his mechanics, his pocket presence, his demeanor when asked about fixing said mechanics or bad habits, rolling to the right. I believe overall he is a tremendous leader and good for a locker room. I don't like him as a QB at this time because it's his weakness. Honestly he is ass backwards. Most come with the tools, but aren't great leaders....he is an insane leader and has not shown himself to have the appropriate tools for the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to get caught up in the fools gold that was the Falcons game last year. I was praising the hell out of Hurts and thought he could be the guy. I don't like that they started the game with all passing though. I hope they don't think if hurts improved they can just pass 90% of the time like they did the beginning of last year. I know they want a prolific passing game but nothing wrong with going with that strong run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then mike posts his opinion about Hurts, and rather than seeing as middle box, you have to ask whether its a compliment or trashing him. Lack of self-awareness.
