Can Jalen Hurts evolve into Philadelphia Eagles' franchise QB? | Pro Football Talk | NBC Sports

Bruce Terrell

Hurts the man in Philly.

    Francis

    What does? My huge rod obviously but I don’t think that’s what you were referring to.

PhillyGoat83

Love hurts 💪💪💪

Michael Jordan

Personally, I agree with them being more interesting than Minnesota for sure, but I think that the Saints are more dangerous than the Vikings. I’d rather have Saints in there. What if they are a 7 and they get Tampa Bay as a 2??!! That’d be amazing lol.

    Louis Schulze

    Tampa would roll them in the playoffs

    Louis Schulze

    It happened last year even when they had their HOF QB

    Michael Jordan

    @Louis Schulze
    Lol I agree

    Big Joka

    The same saints eagles were up by 30 on um no

jay 1988

Hurts has 14 more tds than Mac Jones in 3 more starts. One is considered amazing the other everyone hates on. Why?

    CPA Outdoorsman

    @rdecredico basically has played a rookie season +3 games and you expect him to play like a HF QB

    Ant Wii

    @Joe King yea but Mac had a heisman wr as well as other 1st round teammates and was qb of one of the most stacked teams of all time there was reasonable reason to think Mac success was more on his surroundings than his actually talent(obviously was wrong tho)

    Ant Wii

    @Joe King yet he still went round one despite all the cons Lamar was last in first round hurts wasn’t even considered first round

    Ant Wii

    @Mike-ROMANS 1:16 he’s clearly one of the most athletic qbs if not the most maybe that’s why

    Joe King

    @Ant Wii I don’t see Lamar being a starting QB long term.

Tejas Kandharkar

They have one of the best RBs in the league in Miles Sanders and great depth with Howard Scott and Gainwell. I don’t get how people who’s whole job its to talk sports are out here saying the need another guy smh

    Donovan S

    @Teron that’s because he does a better job than our running backs do

    Klowon Julu

    Sanders gets hurt every other minute it wouldn’t hurt

    Jayarejohnsonnigga@yahoo.com Johnson

    Miles Sanders is out of here

    Tyler Fernandes

    I mean wouldnt hurt to get a guy thats more of a 3 down back sanders cant catch or block which is why howard scott and gainwell even need to be on the roster howard and scott really arent anything great eagles have really food run blocking

    The Rich Girl Society

    Miles sanders is injured as usual

Kevin Dukes

That’s fine I’m pretty sure there is a team that would gladly take Hurts , I got a idea Pittsburgh is looking to replace big Ben, Tomlin will gladly take Hurts…

    Kwaku Moore

    I think hurts in pitts would be a a perfect match. Bill and Tom, Andy and mahomes

    Yahoyakim

    @Kwaku Moore Too bad for Pitts Hurts is staying right here in Philly

    Susan Taylor

    Falcons would love to have him.

    Char

    @Kwaku Moore I’ll give you Reagor and a 2nd right now for Pitts 😂

Greatwhite 3

I would like to see Jalen with the kind of weapons Herbert and Mahomes have

    Richard Perez

    Chargers receivers can’t catch

    Joe King

    They could have had Justin Jefferson. 😉

    Brody Miller

    @Young Money 🐐🐐🐐🐐

    DarkForce852

    He wouldn’t be able to throw to them. His arm is weak and his reads are slow. Not to mention, he’s inaccurate

    Greatwhite 3

    The Denver game says otherwise

Tupiaz

Hurts needs to improve his passing game a lot if his going to be playing as well as Lamar. It is often forgotten how good an online we actually have and have been able to play a bit more consistent than previous years (even though we had 4 players as RG). Since the QB class next year aren’t that impressive it is better just to stick to Hurts for a year more and see where it is going. we have 3 1st round picks those can be use to improve the defence. Other position could be a WR and another TE. Having a two TE scheme I think could improve the offence a lot. A big target for hurts would also make it tougher to protect will you still have a good running game.

    comet star

    @Yahoyakim Bro your looking at stats. Look at film bro. Like are Hurts fans blind or something like jeez. Also his mechanics and making reads need to improve as well not just accuracy.

    comet star

    @Tupiaz Yeah I’m starting to think these are Hurts fans and not Eagles fans. I have never seen a QB get so defended for doing almost nothing. At least with Wentz fans it kinda made sense because of his MVP season but these Hurts fans are something else like theres no reasoning with these people. You can’t even be in the middle when it comes to Hurts like I myself. It’s either they want you to say Hurts is the next Russell Wilson or they start to call you names lol.

    Tupiaz

    @Yahoyakim over 60% makes him the 5th worst starting QB. Most QBs would have over 65 percentage completion. 60% is not that great. You a throwing stats you don’t even grasp. Try and claim down fr the holidays you will enjoy it more.

David Nelson

Hurts looks pretty good. The Eagles might win out in the regular season due to their running game and two easy wins on the schedule.

    Donovan S

    division wins are never easy especially against the giants……

    Josh

    They can upset any team not named GB or Tampa in the first round. This is a dangerous team

John Chedsey

Here’s something I don’t understand about immediately blowing a potential turnover play dead: all turnovers are automatically reviewed. Refs should be taught to let the turnover play out and if it happens to not be one, no problem. The correct call gets made. This is a situation where technology will assist them every single time. Let it play out!

    Donovan S

    yes but the player should keep going regardless of whistle if he thinks he made a legit play……..that’s why some players continue to run even when they think the play is dead…

DAN THE MAN

Jalen has gotten better.

Felix’s Flix

It really wasn’t that easy to see in real time even if you’re standing close by

helemonga208

We definitely need help on the defensive side(draft and free agency) and another experience WR in Free agency. Our DE’s are not getting enough pressure and sacks.

    cryptolicious

    yes

    Drewski J

    We need a CB/SS, another WR that can create separation, a pass rush and maybe a LB

    Tyler Fernandes

    @Drewski J ik im pissed the dolphins won 7 straight kyle hamton would be such a good pick wouldnt mind trading up for him but we need so many positions probably not worth it

capricornmagic63

If I was watching this on 52 inch tv, the sight of Chris Simms eyes going up and down like that would drive me nuts! 😄

Badd Babylon

I feel like Jalen Hurts is going to become an NFL Head Coach down the line.

    Jermaine D.K

    The way he is…I wouldn’t be surprised

    Will I Am

    Agreed, after Hurts has plenty of success as a QB in the NFL. The trajectory certainly points to that.

    cryptolicious

    @Will I Am thats optimistic speculation. he may not improve pass skills. hurts is mostly a running back w a lot of bad vision and garbage passes and underthrows even against POOR opponents. rg3 didnt last long

    Klowon Julu

    @cryptolicious poor take casual go take a seat

Diehard Eagles fan since '96

You want me to listen to Simms opinion on hurts? The man who said that 12 backup quarterbacks are better than him

Theo Lamp

The Eagles don’t need another runner. They need a veteran receiver, an edge rusher, an offensive lineman, and other defensive help. All could be done with draft picks and cap space.

    Ryan Mailley

    They can add all plus the runner. Sign Godwin with our open cap space (hes coming off injury so price tag wont be high) then draft defense/ Kelce replacement round 1 and pick up someone like walker in the second to add to the run snd eventually replace Miles Sanders

20/20 Vision

Credit to Chris Simms for his honesty… and Mike Florio for getting hyped about wanting the eagles in the playoffs 🦅

Jomar Abner

Thought we had a new player 😂😂😂🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

Moonroof

I believe in Jalen!
