Baltimore is preparing an explosive device to be delivered into Philly headquarters.

Lamar is loving this.

This could be bad for Lamar. Hurts signed for less guarantees than Kyler last year. The precedent of teams going further and further away from Watson’s contract will further dissuade teams from negotiating with him until his demands change

I see Hurts get knocked down for his talent around him….Burrow probably has the most talent in the league….he has the best receiving group and one of the better running back groups….now I don’t believe in knocking a guy for his talent because many great QBs have had talent around them….to me a all time great is what Mahomes is doing and I haven’t seen anyone sniff that yet.

And yeah y’all lose me on the Chargers argument….I’d argue they had more talent than the Cowboys last season…a 12 win team. I do think he has the tools but I thought Rivers did too. I thought Cutler did too. We haven’t really seen it yet though.
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.

Cam was an athletic Phenom. Hurts squatted 500 in HS. Whoop-d-doo!
We’re talking about quarterback here… Tom Brady was not an athletic phenom… if we were talking about a wide receiver, cornerback, running back, then…

That’s my point. Hurts is a Cam Lite. Same characteristics just smaller.

Murray was $160 I thought.

Hurts is $179.

Possibly but to say that Hurts was a big reason they lost the SB is a bit of a stretch. Other than that bad fumble, he had a really good game.

Only a Cowboys homer can't admit that.
No he played great in the Super Bowl.

He’s a really good fit in that system. But I think a lot of mobile QBs who don’t make stupid decisions would be great in that system.

Teams were literally begging Hurts to throw this year. That’s how bad it got.

Also, Philly played out front in most of their games. They didn’t need Hurts to go win games by actually playing like a traditional QB very often.

Even if he was a truly elite QB it would be difficult for them to ever win a title with this contract.
