If we dominate games while there is still lots we can do better that tells us how dang good this team is and can be.

It's also a constant reminder to not get complacent.

    Doesn’t matter who’s the QB if the Oline can’t block, the WR’s can’t get open, the coaches can’t coach and the GM can’t identify talent. 

  • So we had to listen to an entire week of "He runs too much".   What will the talking points be this week?  Jalen and this Team can win in multiple ways.  Stop trying to put him in some box where he on

Nothing is for sure.

But it sure feels good so far.

He did alright again. I don't like him but I'm not going out of my way to bash him either.

Why? I didn't bash his play last week either. He seems cocky to me but his play has been fine so far. If he proves me wrong, fine. Still not sold on him.

His play and personality aren't the same. I'm obviously not sold on him but he has played fine so far. 

Doug made the right call

 

 

Still not sold, but Hurts is having a nice start to the season. Promising start.   

This week Jalen Hurts was better than Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen. Not bad for a "running back playing quarterback.”

He is going to be here for 5 years plus, we aren’t drafting a QB after this. It’s over 

Hurts is a beast

Hurts’s completion % has plummeted to 67.3%. Hopefully he can pick it back up next week

 

I am close to being sold on him.

Damn, just imagine if they do extend him and make him the Franchise QB, you then could use those two 1st Round picks on DL and OL. Sweeet.

As BG, Fletcher, Lane, etc.... they ain't getting younger.

Build those trenches!

I’ve mentioned this too and the Hurts Hate Squad went ape ish over it.

We call this reality. These are actual comparisons and not opinions.

They are different years and opponents and teammates, etc but the point is not that Hurts has better stats, its that he's even on that level.

He's not going to wake up tomorrow at 6'5" either.

It does not mean Hurts will continue to develop like Allen but he's much further than 90% of people thought he ever had a chance to get.

The truth is, Josh Allen is fulfilling his potential and developed into one of the NFL's top QBs. Jalen Hurts continues his own development and has made significant improvement in his own game. It appears Hurts is on his way to making the "lists." Why people get so butt-hurt over player comparisons will always confound me. If you want me to compare Hurts to a garbage QB, then fine --- he's way better than Cason Strong. But, IMO, I think it's more useful to compare him to a player setting the bar. Hurts isn't as far along as Allen yet, but people should be happy with the progress. 

The only defense for the haters right now after 3 weeks are things like:

  • 3 games don't count but 3 random bad games from last year do count
  • I'm pretending he will be bad next week so I can feel better about myself
  • I'm pretending he faced bad teams and that the schedule gets tough (they had the 16th ranked schedule through 2 games and the 32nd for the rest of the year according to FO DVOA)
  • Young QBs are not allowed to develop. They have to be awesome right away just like Dak (who is a mess after) and Marino.

The same people probably feel good about Trevor Lawrence after 3 games even though he was terrible last year because they don't have a hatred investment of disliking their own starter..

At the pace Hurts is going this season, he will be spoke about as top 8.  He's seeing the field and executing. As someone who was heavy heavy on the doubt, the man has had three games where he has shown all three styles to win as a QB. I respect what I've seen so far, and can admit up to this point, I was fing wrong. There is no buts or we will sees. Respect to this point and hope he stays healthy. Fly Eagles Fly

Much respect here. Some are just waiting in the shadows to continue to hate. You stepped up.

I'm a football fan before I'm an eagles fan and that has been good football.
