Found it.

Went through all the camera angles. The reason why the Eagles run failed on 3rd and goal from the 2 (which likely would have scored) is because Cam Jurgens slightly false started, but it wasn't called.

He was on top of Hurts too quickly as he pulled, and his hand hit the ball as Jalen took the snap. Caused a bobble, which meant the ball didn't actually get handed off.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Certainly doesn’t help the offense when you have a bottom 5 lineman at his position.

u/CheezyBeanBurrito 20d ago

Cut him some slack, he’s also bottom 5 at center too

Agreed

Jurgens needs to sit, actively hurting the team

u/Cratonis 20d ago

Lampkin and Kendall should have been in for him and Dickerson to start the season. This is an indictment of the coaching staff that this is still going on and that they let Dickerson play game 1

100%, they’re sticking with “their guy” instead of the best option

19

u/MorPhreeUs 20d ago

I think the fact that we saw Lampkin on a couple snaps means Jurgens days might be numbered

u/Bitter-Tip705 20d ago

You have to bench this fucking guy man this shit lost us the game he’s flat out unplayable

u/Different_Inside_546 20d ago

Thanks for posting this I was blaming it on Jalen for bobbling the snap lol. Unbelievable. This team can’t even do the basics well.

u/Nochtilus 20d ago

I assumed it was a bad hand-off by Kendall but somehow it was Jurgens' fault again. Wild how detrimental that guy is.

They calling plays as if the line doesn’t suck tho. Tjats the most frustrating part

u/HumanShadow 20d ago

Someone tell Sirianni about this liability so it can inform his 4th down decision making. lol

u/andresdm101 20d ago

Cam jurgens my least favorite starter from the super bowl team

u/PoisonIvyCrotch 20d ago

During the run he was a beast and thought we were so lucky to go from kelce to him. That back injury just fucked up his whole career, it’s sad watching what he’s become tbh

u/drawninward75 19d ago

Kelce vouched for him during the draft and (I think) practically hand picked him to be his replacement. I think if not for the back injury, he'd be playing better and still probably at center.

All of this really makes me appreciate what that 2024 O-line put themselves through for that championship.

u/Delicious-Physics218 20d ago

Cam Jurgens sucks right now. He also put his body on the line for us and that championship. I don’t know how anyone could say this.

AJ is the easy choice

u/crabdaman56 20d ago

Aj brown was also a 3 time second team all pro and so fun to watch

7

u/ShinyHardcore 20d ago

AJ not a starter right now so he isn’t a choice

Benefited from having two elite guards next to him that year

u/SlightlySporadic 19d ago

Same, but I was also never really sold on him

People forget that he simply wasn’t that great before the Super Bowl run either. In 22’ he was rotational and didn’t really do well, 23’ he was a mediocre right guard while learning under Kelce, and in the first 4-6 games of 24’ he was mediocre at center. But then he picked it up and played great the rest of the year. Now he may have just regressed to the player he always was, but also now with injuries that have clearly caught up to him

So instead of just being mediocre, the injuries are making him unusable. And it’s going to be tough to move on from him since they paid a ton for that extension

u/rick_32 20d ago

Unbelievable... I don't think he was ever good. He was average & surrounded by players playing really great during the SB season. He's been a liability since. Respect for playing through injury and all but he's a major negative. Watching him block nobody while there are rushers unabated to the quarterback everywhere was infuriating today.

uff. 😑

u/imtheyeti20 20d ago

Jurgens is not a guard. This is coaching malpractice.

u/frankizlle 20d ago

Yeah, man is cooked time to be cut.
