It sucks because he could still be great....but as long as he wears that uniform, I hope he doesn't learn crap Unfortunately for him if he doesn’t learn now then I don’t know what team takes him. Three teams in three seasons is kind of a death sentence for most quarterbacks. 8 minutes ago, 4for4EaglesNest said: Dude. You’re aligning yourself with one of the biggest pieces of ish in here. Just so you know. And I already said a few pages back that I’ll start a thread admitting I was wrong when the season is over, if it’s warranted. So don’t be so presumptuous. I don’t need any affirmation of my character from anyone on a message board. Especially that piece of garbage.

The injuries and his own hubris robbed us of that, but we still got a Super Bowl out it. Kurt Warner did a detailed video about Wentz a couple years ago in which he said his 2017 season was not as good as it appeared to be. He said Wentz was more lucky than good. He cited the unsustainable 3rd down % and low completion % as reasons. I didn't want to believe it then, but more and more 2017 Wentz seems like nothing more than lighning in a bottle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That thread was entirely in bad taste. You're just a very low class character person who as we have found out really doesn't understand a lot about football. This is a football message board, and Hurts is a football player on this team. It was an interesting discussion for those of us who are mature enough to handle it. You obviously are not.

I didn't want to believe it then, but more and more 2017 Wentz seems like nothing more than lighning in a bottle Oh it absolutely was lightning in a bottle considering he never came close to the 3rd down and red zone production rates he put up that year. Clearly Wentz is not as good as 2017, but he’s not as bad as 2020 either. The problem is he’s too stuck on himself to realize that he needs to evolve as a player. He’s trying to be the guy who just relies on his arm and it shows. He never worked on his footwork or he would revert back to old habits that and that’s why so many of his passes are inaccurate. His need to always try and make the big play leads to unnecessary sacks. I’ve never seen a guy with such little pocket awareness. One thing for sure is the Eagles did not ruin Wentz nor did they do him wrong in any way. Wentz has only himself to blame for his current career trajectory.

time2rock Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 God why is it so hard to just enjoy the ride … to just appreciate what Hurts is showing (so far) as our QB?!? Has he improved relative to last year? Yup. Does he still have things to work on to become even better? Yup. Many of you are so focused on having been right with your initial assessment of him that you can’t appreciate what he is showing … right now. Can only hope he continues on the upward trajectory he has been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His replacement might be a diamond in the rough, but all you can think about is your one true love. Exactly. The usual suspects are STILL down there ball-washing their beloved savior by attacking the guy who replaced and made him irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have showed lots of flashes of greatness and some not so great things but they are still winning with those issues. It's a great problem to have.

But pretty sure it's unanimous to Jackson with Allen being second. You guys crown pretty hard for September and versus people who pick early often.... I gave the kid credit..hell even said he may end up being talked about top 8 QB end of the season, but you guys are really really going overboard at this moment 8 hours ago, brkmsn said: I think right now, he would only trail Jackson. Out of the 3, Hurts is the only one still undefeated. It's an interesting question, but Hurts is certainly getting the attention. When it comes time to vote, they will have a much larger sample to go off of. @EaglesRocker97 this is what you call gaslighting. My comment was spot on. Hurts has had an MVP level start. Quite simply if he keeps playing like this and putting up numbers like this, he will likely be in the MVP discussion. I did not claim he would win it or even was in the lead now. Mike and the others have made some of the following claims over and over in the past year: "Hurts sucks Hurts can’t pass or read Hurts isn’t good enough to have a breakout. Josh Allen year 3 comparison is laughable! Allen can throw harder.” And now rather than acknowledge he was wrong he has a dig about the number of TD passes Hurts has thrown this year! Shalodeep - I appreciate you have backed down on your Hurts stance, but don’t try and put words in my mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsb235 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Right now Hurts has more total yards than the Cowboys, Giants and Commanders. So not only are the Eagles leading the division in terms of yards gained, but Hurts by himself is in second place. His 7 total tds is also more than the team totals for the cowboys and giants. So not a bad way to start the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time2rock Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Quote Jalen Hurts named NFC offensive player of the month Posted by Myles Simmons on September 29, 2022, 8:36 AM EDT The Eagles are one of two 3-0 teams remaining and quarterback Jalen Hurts is a big reason why. Now the quarterback has been named NFC offensive player of the month for his performances in the first three weeks of the season. Hurts has accounted for seven total touchdowns — four passing and three rushing. He’s completed 67.3 percent of his passes for 916 yards, only throwing one interception. He’s averaging nearly 100 more yards per game than he did last season while leading the league at 9.3 yards per attempt and 13.9 yards per completion. Hurts has also rushed for 167 yards. If Hurts can continue playing at this high of a level, the Eagles should be making some noise in January. The last Eagles QB to win offensive player of the month was Carson Wentz in Oct. 2017. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/09/29/jalen-hurts-named-nfc-offensive-player-of-the-month/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he hasn't played his way into discussion, I just think it's a run away. I have him third or fourth.
