Yeah, he can’t get drafted last. That’s his next goalpost 😏

[–] joogiee@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

“Nah jalen hurts beat himself today”. Heard a lot of that at the game today.

Defense got cooked after the 1st quarter. Every drive led to a TD and forgot how to tackle. Leonard was smart for waiting to sign cause now Eagles giving him a bag

[–] RaiLong415@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Has he beaten a good team?

[–] DumbestBoy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

How does he finish a full game against Big Dom?

[–] gridironk@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yes he needs to throw 8 TDs into quintuple coverage without Deebo, Kittle, CMC and Aiyuk on the field.

And he needs to do this against the 1985 Bears or 2000 Ravens.

Well eagles didn’t have Desean Jackson so we can’t really know

[–] sail_away13@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Jackson was on the field both before the game and during it. Was not wearing pads though

[–] GGGiveHatpls@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Can we ask Ja Rule how he feels?

[–] MITJustinFields@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

"Yeah but Eagles won a superbowl with a backup QB so it shouldn't have mattered. Oh Purdy was the third string QB last year? Lalala i cant hear you"

[–] Robertosaur@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He’S a SyStEm QuArTeRbAcK!

[–] Insectshelf3@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

sorry, MVP is reserved for QBs that complete 70.01% of their passes for 315 yards.

[–] Zhiyi@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah play on a team that’s not loaded out the ass.

[–] slowerchop@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Do it in the playoffs

[–] DirectTV_AndrewLuck@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

But but but, Jalen went to the medical tent!!!

[–] ACEPACEACE@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Stroud is MVP by all definitions of the word, literally carrying the team on his back to 7 wins is absurd after they were the 2nd worst team last year. He's my MVP

[–] HolyRomanPrince@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He still plays on a supremely talented offense with the best play caller in the game. Trent, Deebo and CMC were exceptional today

[–] willi3blaz3@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I mean, we’ve never seen him outside of the system

[–] itsyerboiTRESH@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I don't get the Purdy hate. Dude was Mr Irrelevant and lit up the league, and its not like hes throwing all checkdowns too. Bizarre really

Hate the 9ers, sure. But why Purdy lol? Every bad game he has (its not many) half this sub just eats him alive like no other QB

[–] PleaseStopSmoking@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Is anyone really discounting Brock Purdy? I feel like everyone's been justifiably hyped as fuck about him since he made his debut. Sucks he got injured in the NFCCG last year, but it's what happened, not sure where goal posts were moved.

[–] phil0sophy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The Ringers official QB rankings has Purdy at 20.

[–] restless_vagabond@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's a jab at Nick Wright who thinks he is mediocre until he fulfills a certain set of conditions like being behind by a certain amount in the fourth quarter and bringing his team back without the help of his star players.

Dumb shit, but it's a hot take from "sports media personality."

[–] varnell_hill@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

HATERS STAY SALTY LOOOOOOOOOL.

[–] Suspicious_Afternoon@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

GaMe MaNaGeR 🤓

[–] Impressive-Theory-27@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I mean the only nit pick, is the ridiculous amount of yac yards his receivers get

[–] johnnygoober@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

But how good is he at underwater basket weaving??

[–] Any-Ball-1267@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I would like to move the goal posts inside of the endzone so we can make field goals easier

[–] Intelligent-Age2786@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Eagles didn’t have Brian Dawkins so there’s an asterick

[–] CaliforniaHurricane_@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is how last year’s NFC Championship game would’ve went

[–] Brooklynboxer88@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

“Let’s see him play from behind by more than 14 points, we don’t know how he really is under pressure”

[–] Naynathan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

As much as I hate it, he’s probably the next Tom Brady of the league

[–] Its_Claire33@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He looks the part. He's this good as essentially a rookie. It's nuts. I don't think we win the sb this year but next year should be great if he takes another step.

[–] UniqueNobo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

on one hand, i was kinda hoping the Eagles would go 16-1 just to make the fact that their only defeat was to the Jets practice squad secondary and Zach Wilson that much funnier…

but this just feels nice seeing Philadelphia get fucked up. good job 9ers.

[–] zincinzincout@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He played perfect but anyone that’s still been saying he isn’t a great QB has to just be trolling.

Unironically this is not the defense to make this point against lmao, no goalpost moving intended. The environment adds significance to the win obviously but freaking Sam Howell put up 700 yards and 5 tds in 2 games against this defense

[–] glago93@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Do it again in the playoffs. That's the next step.

[–] currybeef@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Does this count as a comeback win for Purdy?

[–] Bircka@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Herp derp he has an incredible offense he can't be MVP!

He still hasn't come back from down 14 at half-time to win.

[–] Acrobatic_Unit_8217@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Dude on pace to a 4500 yard and 33 TDs season. Not bad for 7 rounder.
