CFZ I was at Eagles Training Camp; here is a report on the enemy

[StarOfGlory]

So, I was invited to see camp by a friend who works for the Eagles. I used to go a few times back in the day when Juan Castillo was my neighbor and I was friendly with Jon Runyan. Here is what I saw.

We have, by far, the best QB in the division. Jalen Hurts still has no consistent timing with his receivers, nor does he have particularly good downfield vision. Being an Eagles fan must be frustrating, since watching AJ Brown and Davonte Smith, they clearly have real talent and speed at the WR position. Toss in Chez Watkins, and they would be very dangerous if they had a real QB.

To add to this, their offensive line is no joke. Hurts has plenty of time to make those throws, but just can't do it with any consistency. Twice he had 4+ seconds in the pocket and missed receivers who had their man beat. He did keep a few plays alive with his legs, but with that line, just throw the damn ball.

Mishnew is what he is, a capable backup.

Carson Strong threw two balls that went 65+ yards in the air, and it didn't look like he was even trying. He has the arm strength of Hercules. Too bad he has the mobility of a pregnant cow. In the right system he could be a real player. I know they want to work with him and hopes he can become the #2.

I am 6'4", 275. Jordan Mailata walked past me. I felt small.

Miles Sanders could be a #1 back, but he just gets hurt too often, and does have a bit of the fumbles. He does have the talent.

On one play, Jordan Davis destroyed a blocker, shed another, and ran one of their scat backs down from behind.

The Eagles with a real QB would have a chance to go deep in the playoffs. Right now, they will finish second in the division and go out in the first round.

Just my humble opinion based on a limited look.

The Eagles remind me of our team in 2016 with their Achilles heel being the QB.
If they don't do a Jerry(sign Hurts to a cap-killing contract)and draft themselves a top prospect in the upcoming NFL Draft they might be the new team to beat in the NFC.

Thanks for the report. I noticed the same thing about Carson Strong arm strength at the combine. Think he has had some knee issues.

Hurts was god awful in the playoff loss to TB.

Pray they keep that most inept QB and give him a major cap-busting contract as the cherry on the cake.
They will have the same outcome we had with Dakko......

It’s sad when long time Dallas fan like us wanna see success for the wrong reasons—not as much for Cowboy glory as simply to silence the Trolls.

I think Jalen Hurts is a backup QB. Nothing that I've ever seen from Hurts leads me to believe he's better than Minshew, and I think Minshew is most likely a career backup.

Which one (QB) you talking about we had two that year that started. The one that got hurt or the one that was rookie of the year and selected to the pro bowl?

I certainly hope a thorough de-con was performed about your self immediately after departure........

Spot on.

Lol!! You and Pappy giving each other some love! Beautiful....

Waiting for the Pseudo Eagles fans in here come and defend Hurts. Saying this is what TC is for.

Some of our resident QB gurus would rather have Hurts than dak.

A number of pundits picking the Eagles to win the division despite Hurts as the QB.

 

[Deionindahood]

Isn't this Hurt's 2nd season? I don't judge QBs to harshly until their 2nd or 3rd season. After that, it's what have they won?
What has Dak won? I'm a Cowboy and Bills fan. Josh Allen's first 2 seasons he had the lowest completion percentages in the league. Today I would take him over Dak in a heartbeat.
