The 2 losses............ ZACH WILSON AND TAYLOR HEINICKE

WTF

[–] rodrigoa1990@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

What do you mean? That's 2 elite QBs right there

Nothing to see here

[–] -Jack-The-Stripper@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I feel like being 0-3 in the only 3 games out of the last 30 without your starting QB isn’t that surprising lol.

With the Minshew hype? It shows how important his rushing ability is

[–] sebastianqu@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

While one was us sitting every single notable player, Minshew really stunk up the other two games.

Breaking news: team better when franchise QB is playing

[–] I_Set_3_Alarms@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

And this year’s Jets team is one of those 2 losses. Incredible

[–] hemingways-lemonade@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Saleh's defense is no joke. Everything else about the team is, though.

[–] Insectshelf3@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

even when he plays like shit he still finds a way to win

[–] cheanerman@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Wtf was up with yesterday when they called like 5 screen plays in a row. Almost threw my remote at the tv.

[–] Skywalkerkid9@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I’ve been told by some individuals from Arlington and Santa Clara that he’s a system QB tho

[–] BookEuronGreyjoy@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I've been told the same about our QB by some individuals from south Jersey even though he just had a game with a perfect passer rating

[–] Downtown_Ant@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Sounds like people want him held to the same standard Purdy and Dak are held to

[–] bigkeys11@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Wins are not a qb stat but Jalen is quickly challenging that sentiment.

[–] Clubtropper@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hurts is the Ultimate form of Tim Tebow

Hurts is not the physical talent like Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, or Justin Herbert. That's why haters doubt and attack him so much. Casual minds.

Who is Hurts? He is a leader that inspires his team to win ugly games, to pick each other up when the chips are down.

Jason Kelce is one of, if not the greatest C of all time. He has spoken of how each year gets harder, and considered retirement for years now. One of the greatest Eagles of all time in front of our eyes, and he has chosen to put himself through that for Jalen Hurts. That's the Quarterback that I wouldn't trade for anyone.

Win ugly or lose pretty. The main thing is winning, and 25-2 is absurd. Go Eagles.

I think hurts best ability is not being affected by the ups and downs and momentum swings of games. Just looks completely unphased by everything.

[–] TheScottfather@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I see people in game threads talk shit sometimes about how he doesn't seem happy when the team is doing well, but they conveniently don't mention how he never looks downtrodden or hanging his head when they're behind.

He ALWAYS looks like he's on a mission.

[–] cheanerman@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Idk that’s more of a complimentary trait than anything. Bryce Young is the same but is 1-9 lol. It looks good if you’re a winner but looks like you have no dog if you’re a loser.

[–] Maniac-2331@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I feel like after getting benched in the Natty in college and watching your backup go on to win it, itd take a lot to rattle you

[–] Grand-Gain-763@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

What physical talent does Burrow have? Are you referring to his accuracy or quick release???

[–] ButterUtters@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Hurts is a physical talent though....

[–] handsfacespacecunts@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Kelce also puts himself through something or whatever for a paycheck. "It gets harder to make a couple million dollars every year so I guess I'll just retire."

[–] PsychoBuffed@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Physically gifted doesn't just mean physical strength lmao.

Josh Allen can throw circles around Jalen, and is also a dominant running QB. The mental fortitude is what makes Hurts a better QB. Better decisions, better focus, and an understanding that you don't win rings as a lone wolf playing hero ball when the chips get down.

[–] ServerLost@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Not a lot of room for backup QB money with that O line to pay.

[–] Rah_Rah_RU_Rah@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

it was Minshew lmao

[–] RealBatuRem@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I can’t believe a team would be worse without their starting quarterback

[–] sicknick08@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Idk why they never count his first 4 starts. Oh wait 0-4 with 9 fumbles. Then we added playmakers.

[–] Kvartersalkis@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Are you asking why we don't take the 4 games after he took over from Wentz as a rookie with PS receivers and a decimated OL into account?

[–] rounder55@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Upvotes for the tweet shade

[–] JinterIsComing@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I look forward to the Eagles going 3-1 with Hurts over the next three games so we can revisit this again.
