There's some F bombs in there

I'm about halfway through and it seems like he just doesn't trust his Oline even though they've blocked well

There are throws to be made

I did chuckle at @13:10 though

I have seen enough of this type of plays, to know our Wr's can play and get open, what we have is an issue with the person distributing the ball. 

And the longer he remains the QB1, the more convinced I am of 1 of  these things are true:

1) Our FO really believes in Hurts and is giving him every chance (meaning they are clueless)

or

2) We know without a doubt he sucks and are keeping him in so we can raise our draft status. (remember pulling Hurts for Sudfeld in the last game???)  LOL

 

 

After watching this I have to ask how Minshew couldn't be better.

No - everyone is a superstar and deserves a participation trophy.  

I can accept and believe Hurts isn't the answer at QB.  Hurts isn't the problem long term.  If he's out after this season as a starter, the question remains can Sirianni develop a more talented prospect or coordinate an offense for a proven veteran QB.  I have no confidence that Sirianni and his current staff can do either at this point.  

Hurts is a problem long term, you can't develop players when you're forced to dumb down an offense to a level that makes Jeff Fisher's look like 4D chess.  Hurts is holding the team and the coaches back.

Can we suspend him for conduct detrimental to the team?

You know damn well he would be better.  And I bet money NS would be able to do more with him, that is for sure.  But he certainly hasn't done a good job with Hurts.  

 

I have a question for the BLOG.  Is this RPO offense the most simplistic offense they can give Hurts?  I would think it's possible.  And even then, he's not able to execute it properly.  At what point do people realize this?  How can an offense be dumbed down even more?  

Single wing maybe?

 Embiid also said he’s not here to baby sit. Ben is clearly acting like a child. Only

Showed  up to not lose his money. My guess Ben shows up next practice and mysteriously get an "injury”

Embiid has really grown up a lot.

Put him in rice that fixes a lot of things.

Hurts is holding the coaches back.  But NS is not doing him any favors with this goofy offense.  They are a terrible fit.  Horrendous TBH.  

IDK how the offense can be simplified even more outside of running a straight option/run heavy playbook and we don't have the horses in the stable for that.  Stoutland doesn't coach the OL to do that.  Etc etc.

What does Jalen Hurts excel at?

We are 1/3rd into the season and I have no idea what Hurts even excels at or even what the offense does well. They are not a good passing team, and they are not a good running team because they just don't run. Wentz would have these passes in games that made you just say, wow. Every game, Wentz would have at least one. I have not seen a single pass like that from Hurts.

Before the season I had this team in the 4-6 range of wins. I still see them in that same range, however, I expected to see improvement and playing competitively. I haven't seen any of that this season.

 

Hurts has had some pretty wow throws in the RZ.

 Become a predominately run offense, 60 % run the ball, conventional style. 

Make the pass plays one read and throw it away. 

Problem solved.

Too late.  Thibodeaux is on his way to be the consensus #1 pick without any QB on the radar.  With their 2 wins, the Eagles are likely higher than HOU, JAX, and DET already.

Start planning on the #4 or 5 pick being the ceiling.

Evan Neal says nope. 6’7” 360lb LT, who played LG as a Freshman, RT as a Sophmore and now LT.    He’s given up 3 sacks on over 1000 passing snaps in his Alabama career.    
 
He’s the only competition for Thibodeaux as of now, but I think Thibodeaux had 11 hurries, just in the 2nd half of his last game, sooo, lol.    He’s a beast.     They are definitely 1&2 right now, I wonder if Hamilton being a safety can get to number 3?

I don't think he's played poorly either. Not exactly a high bar to set though. I don't think he's anything special and at that position, you want the best you can get. Would still trade him for what you can get, you can do a lot better than Dillard.

My view is that Dillard is relatively inexpensive for the next year.  The team could certainly draft OT and that wouldn't be a bad idea given where they may have picks in the draft.  I think Dillard with one decent season has more value at the end of this year.  Lane is a plug and play player now.  I think he would garner a higher draft choice.  The barrier is the money but I don't think that's a big deal for a team that sees themselves as a contender.  The advantage for the Eagles is that they free up money for Lane and playing Dillard doesn't hurt them competitively.  

Look at the teams like det and houston…qbs will get elevated as always

If they're running a single wing, I would put Hurts at WB and Goedert at QB.  

 

Dillard  Dickerson Kelce Herbig Mailata Johnson Stoll

                                                               Goedert               Hurts

                                                  Sanders

                       Gainwell
