The pocket sometimes collapses. It happens. But Hurts has this weird thing about dancing himself into where the pressure is coming from instead of away from it.

Hurts just can’t deal with pressure. The whole league knows it. Dallas is blitzing the hell out of him and daring him to beat them. And he can’t do it.

Hurts is generally slow and indecisive and has been for a while now. Eagles need to start planning for the future there IMO.
They’re married to him long term. Look at the voidable years on the backend of his contract. It’ll be 2027-2028 before they can even think about moving on.

I’m not saying they dump him next year but they need to start planning for his replacement rather than wait and get caught flat footed in a few years. Jalen’s decision making has been lacking for a while now. Still very talented when everything goes right, but clearly on a decline.

Pokes with a 23-yard FG, and they convert.

7-6, Birds, with 1:48 left in the 1st half
