Fair enough. I'm not trying to knock Hurts down, I just think you can do more with less with a player like Burrow. I get where you're coming from with the Chargers too.

Any QB needs talent around them to excel, I just think the key is not paying the guys that require more of it in a salary cap league.
I agree with you that I personally believe you need more to make Hurts good as opposed to Burrow….I just can’t prove it lol. Burrow has had some talent at the skilled position….can’t say at offensive line though.

Maybe 11 wins. But even 12 means Dallas has the tie breaker, wins the division, Philly has to play in the first round and at Dallas in the second, as SF now has the #1 seed.

You yourself proclaim Dak as Philly’s bane, so either we don’t get past Dallas in the second round, or we require our MVP candidate to beat you. Either way it shows Hurts was a necessity to make the SB
Well I’d the options are Minshew then I agree. There’s 10-12 guys who could have similar success. Kyler Murray would be a lot better there than in Arizona.

IDK about that. Murray's lack of work ethic wouldn't sit well with guys like Kelce and Johnson. The fans would murder him in Philly. It would be Ben Simmons all over again. IMO, Murray is fool's gold. I would hate to see him here.

SO...their run is over? No team can afford to pay a franchise QB and build a team around it. It's impossible. At least that is what is said around here.

It is funny...average QB salaries for top 10 have doubled in the last 5 years salary cap has not increased nearly the same percentage.

Maybe. I can’t downplay Hurts’s willing to work. Probably helped being a coaches kid in that good regard. I was speaking strictly on the talent but that’s an aspect I never factored in. Good point.

In 2021 Dallas signed Dak for 22% AAV of their 2021 cap

In 2023 Philadelphia signed Jalen for 22% AAV of their 2023 cap.

Let’s not get carried away

Do you believe Kyler Murray beats the Dallas Cowboys at Dallas in January?
He’s beaten them with less completion in Dallas. I think he’s still never lost in Dallas dating back to high school lol. I’m not even sure if Hurts beats Dallas in Dallas in January.

Because he didn’t finish second in MVP voting and lead the nfl in passer rating from the pocket
Go away Eagirls troll. You and @Risen Star need to get a room so y’all can hold hands and pretend the Eagirls won a SB last year. 2nd place means squat other than you lost your last game like all the other playoff teams.

No Fish....the bar HAS NOT been set by Hurts for Dak to be "taken care of"....Dak has not taken his team to a Super Bowl like Hurts has...he has not taken us to a NFCCG and won it like Hurts has....Dak doesn't deserve one penny more than he is making now....which is too much BTW. There should be ZERO pressure for Booger and Chuckles to suddenly feel the need to make Dak feel better....Dak is the one that needs to be making COWBOY FANS feel better....here going into year EIGHT!!!

So many closet Eagles fans here.

A QB will sustain more injuries in the pocket than when running the ball. If a running QB is smart, he will see the field in front of him and either get down or out of bounds. But a QB in the pocket will often get blindsided and crushed. A running QB is different than an RB, a RB will lower his shoulder to get those few extra yards, whereas a QB will not.
