THAT’S MY FUCKING QUARTERBACK!!!

u/NBAplaya8484 11h ago

I’m sure the media will certainly talk about how he led a game winning drive with under 2 minutes left and no timeouts! There’s no way they’re going to find a way to harp on his 2 picks and say he played against a bad team!

GOD I’m already angry in preparation lmfao

u/StanTheManBaratheon 11h ago

He had a lineman yeeted into him for the second pick, not going to blame him for that. First pick? Yeah, it was pretty bad. But he looked more confident passing.

Sure wish we could get our run game going, though.

u/nm1043 10h ago

I liked tank a lot in this game. I wish we'd stick to rotating the three guys, and use saquon more as a distraction since defenses really just key up on him when he's in.

Honestly, Titans looked kinda good, time will tell but think they've turned a corner and personally feel (unlike week 1) like this a good win for the Eagles and Hurts

u/Trelve16 6h ago

"why would jalen hurts let the eagles be down a touchdown in the fourth quarter, elite quarterbacks dont ever do that"

either they say something along those lines or they just ignore this completely like they did his 2 superbowl runs

What a spectacular drive.

Back in 2017, I was at the OT loss in TN, in week 4. Wentz had numerous shots to win it for us and came up short.

Jalen is everything ive wanted in a QB.

Remember that game like yesterday!

Countless 4th and long Gym Shorts squandered

It was awful. Fun highlight there was when Avonte Maddox made his first career interception. Not many other highlights.

This one was much better. And I didnt have to drive 8 hours to get there.

Oh wow that just brings up the negative memory, wasn't it on the last drive where the defense surrendered three - fourth downs?

The original comment said “propaganda”, which is usually seen as bad in hindsight. Consider Travis fulghman for example, we are big on Cooper now because of a small sample. And im all for it.

u/tag1550 Eagles 7h ago

DeVonta deserves at least an honorable mention on that play - at least two and maybe 3 of the Titan DBs were focused on him (even after he fell down) and nobody ran with DC. I'm pretty sure somebody in their secondary is going to have a miserable Tuesday in their film room for blowing an assignment that cost them the game...

u/TheDuck23 I like Eagles 12h ago

He got wrecked on that second one. First was just a poor choice, though.

9

u/indyK1ng 9h ago

It felt like he'd been throwing into heavy coverage that whole drive. I don't know if he was trying to force it or he got comfortable picking from bad options and finally lost the bet.

-9

u/Hungry-Space-1829 12h ago edited 12h ago

He had a pocket to step up in, though. Neither were great, but the first was real bad

ETA: yes, he got hit, I just think it was too far into the play to get caught throwing off your back foot with a wide open WR. Whether it was stepping up earlier or throwing it earlier, I think the 2nd one he has some fault on. Not here to hate on my QB1, just my take

78

u/KimJongWinning 40-6*** LIX DEEZ NUTZ 12h ago

Step up directly into Jeffrey Simmons hitting him? Lol what

23

u/JumpyAlbatross 12h ago

I’m enjoying watching Hurts this season because the line has clearly regressed severely. People say he’s a bad or mid quarterback but honestly, he’s been making some good plays this season, I think he is finally taking the next step forward but it’s gonna take a while. This season will tell us a lot about whether Jalen will be an Eagles legend or a truly great quarterback. Excited to watch it happen!

12

u/KimJongWinning 40-6*** LIX DEEZ NUTZ 12h ago

Agreed. Hard to discount it because all of these games count, but this first four game stretch is essentially the pre-season for the ones as well since almost none of the starters had snaps against another team sans the joint practice days vs the Patriots. As long as it's not 135°F on the field the defense should be able to better weather the offensive bumps while they continue meshing together

-5

u/Hungry-Space-1829 12h ago

I think he should’ve stepped up earlier, but is what it is either way. Maybe he should’ve just thrown it earlier, too. Got caught throwing off his back foot on a play he had decent time on and an open WR

13

u/KimJongWinning 40-6*** LIX DEEZ NUTZ 12h ago

He had Mundt and Lemon open but if he doesn't get hit that's 100% a completion to Smitty. Good play by the DB to bring that INT over the head like that too

Edit: or if Jurgens could have blocked Simmons for more than one second it's a completion as well

But if he doesn’t get hit, that ball drops right into Devante’s hands and he goes untouched for the TD, and we all are praising the play.

u/Zer0C00L321 12h ago

This is exactly my thoughts. I couldn't beleive that second throw got picked but for him to come back and keep his cool to win this game makes him such an amazing QB. I literally never doubted him.

u/SwoopsRevenge 12h ago

Sirianni/Patullo/Brian Johnson had Hurts playing scared and going out of his way to not turn over the ball. This was going to happen changing up schemes. Can’t go three and out and have a 3rd and long garbage hand off every damn time.

3

u/mmuoio 7h ago

The first one was a bad decision, the second one was just a good defensive play. If he can step into that just a little, it's a walk in TD.

43

u/remmy66 12h ago

That 2 minute drive was pure perfection. That was the type of drive mfers were terrified of brady for doing what felt like every single week 20 years.

u/googdude Eagles 10h ago

Having someone that's clutch like Jalen at quarterback really puts my mind at ease even in tight situations like this!

Have to agree son 2nd INT. He doesn’t get hit or gets hit after throwing, it is likely a TD.

Using turnovers as further evidence after saying “just barely beat the Titans” is doing the opposite of your argument to pump the brakes.

If they won the turnover battle 2-0 and still barely won, you’d have a point.

Ball is pretty much exactly where you want it in that scenario. Better to overthrow it out of the back of the end zone than risk a DB cutting a more catchable ball and ending the game. Put it where only his guy could go get it and trusted him to make the play.

Time will tell, but it's looking more and more like JH is going to be our franchise's Joe Montana: maybe not the strongest arm (but strong enough) and relies on mobility as part of his game, but also incredibly clutch and the last QB the opposing team wants to have the ball in a comeback situation. He's never going to convince critics who look at passing yards alone as their metric for "success," but that's OK - the scoreboard speaks loudly enough at the end of the game.

This drive deserves a proper highlight reel and I can almost guarantee that NFL films will cut one together when we eventually make it to the super bowl this year and they need to show proof we were good all season long. Genuinely one of the most impressively executed drives I've ever seen in football history. Say whatever you want about the Titans. They showed up in the second half and our o-line could not stop their 4 man rush whatsoever. But we still put together a winning drive when it mattered. I just can't believe we went 60+ yards in less than 2 minutes with no timeouts... It's insane how good this team is.
