nikka what? ..this is the philadelphia eagles season thread
random: 0 plays using pre-snap motion. that is believed to be the only game this season with that few
Hate how ppl think Hurts is still a rook. He had 2 offseasons in nfl camps, he ain't no damn rook. Saw game action last yr and hasn't improved noticeably in any area.
Everything I highlighted last season as a weakness is still a weakness, namely:
- Lack of pre-snap awareness
- Not reading through his progressions quickly
- lack of arm strength
- Intermediate and deep accuracy

Hey man, I agree with you in terms of what I said of Jalen prior to drafting him, and what he is today.. But you being extra, like you having an agenda to convince everybody.. The Eagles best choice to do this year is see what he is, and it will show through the year.. They will have a clear definition of what he is at the end of this season...Hate how ppl think Hurts is still a rook. He had 2 offseasons in nfl camps, he ain't no damn rook.

Come in here to see a million throw in the towel smilies just to see you posted something and DiggsWhat i do?
That's all that matters, there's nothing wrong with being critical/skeptical of him and/or thinking he's not the longterm answer. Actively rooting against him while brushing aside any positives is lame as fukk though.Hey man, I agree with you in terms of what I said of Jalen prior to drafting him, and what he is today..

We should root for him to succeed (although I really doubt he will) because it would be nice to have 3 1st round draft picks to build around a QB.... Im just saying, after not just 1 to 5 games (where people can have agendas to preach what a QB is although not true).. When he has 14 starts this year under him, we will know what he is, no more haters/stans.. The work will speak for itself.. So just be easy
Exactly how I feel, well said.... This season is about seeing progress and knowing what we have... Nobody thinks we are even a playoff team, thats not the expectation... Lets just let it play outThat's all that matters, there's nothing wrong with being critical/skeptical of him and/or thinking he's not the longterm answer.

We all know Jalen doesn't have the arm talent to compensate for bad timing/sloppy footwork. Anticipation and Fundamentals were always gonna be his key to becoming an adequate starter, he's shown flashes of it (and made some beautiful throws), he's also been late on reads, panicked and bailed the pocket too often and had sloppy mechanics/feet which leads to erratic ball placement. That's the process with a young QB, this season is about seeing how he navigates those struggles and whether he can overcome them to find consistency.

Predictions for Sunday???
If the offense doesn't look good against a bad Chiefs def, I'm predicting 5 wins or less
