How is that "horrible"? Because Hurts is closer to Tyrod than Allen. Like I give them credit for putting the best they can around him, but the problem is Hurts. He’s fine, but I’m sure the Eagles are looking to move on 1 Quote

My point is that they wanted to give their young QB every opportunity to prove himself and not be hampered by a poor supporting cast. That's exactly what a well run team does. Okay, and I didn't disagree with you on that. I think it was a solid move by the Eagles. 6 minutes ago, Captain Hindsight said: Because Hurts is closer to Tyrod than Allen.

He’s fine, but I’m sure the Eagles are looking to move on Hurts isn't Allen, but he definitely isn't Tyrod either. I think they can be a good team with him at QB. He had almost 4k total yards last year and 26 total TD's with one WR, DeVonta Smith, and that's it. 1 Quote

I don't think that either of you remember how Josh Allen played as a sophomore. He showed flashes of possibly being a really good QB but he was inconsistent in his accuracy and his decision-making and played "hero ball" too often. It was only in his third season that Allen blossomed into a top QB. Hurts has shown enough potential that he could very well develop into a franchise QB. Just because he might be as talented as Josh Allen doesn't mean that he's trash, but the Eagles will never know how good he can be if they don't support him with top quality targets. Eli Manning was a decent NFL QB but not nearly as good as his brother Peyton, but he has as many Super Bowl rings as Peyton. 1 Quote

I am not sure this is on him. AJ Brown made it sound like he didn’t want to go - would of settled for around 22 million in Tennessee. It seems like a cluster that was because Tennessee did not want to exceed 20 million for a WR. Quote

I'm not saying hurts is a great QB, but he doubled Tebow's career production in a single season. That was with having only one NFL starting caliber WR. If he continues to work on his game he will be more than serviceable as a starter. 1 Quote
nucci Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 Well they have 2 1st round picks next year if Hurts doesn't work out. The Brown trade is great for them 1 Quote
T master Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 It was a $100 million savings & they drafted another WR that is said to be the same guy but just looks different & has a different name . Quote

He can hope to get a Mariota career out of his skill set and Mariota is far better overall. Hurts is awful, his only “production” as a passer is garbage time when D’s just role in a prevent because they are already blowing the iggles out. 1 Quote
buffalo2218 Posted April 29, 2022 Posted April 29, 2022 I understand the rationale behind the trade in terms of their salary cap issues, but just the same, they just got very weaker. Their defense will have to carry them more and with Henry losing his 2 guards to us, his production may take a hit. God knows Tannehill isn't the type to cover up deficiencies Quote

I have an irrational dislike of the Titans, and can’t wait for them to leave the mix of AFC pretenders. Quote
