hurts cant:

see over the line
throw with anticipation
evade pressure within pocket then throw

its going to be very easy for competent defenses to scheme against him:

defend outside the hashmarks with safety help over the top

our defense is good but they had a lot of trouble getting to bryce young yesterday and he was able to throw for chunk plays

a high quality QB just needs a few lucky breaks to turn the game into a shootout and it doesnt feel like Hurts is shooting straight these days

The desired balance should be

25-30 pass attempts
30 rush attempts
225-250 yds passing
150-200 yds rushing

8 targets for AJ
8 targets for Smitty
5-6 targets for Goedert

Are you talking about the td play that is in that tweet I listed? How would that have been a hospital ball? AJ wouldve been well into the endzone before a back got to him and they wouldnt have bothered tackling him hard after that.
Safety was crashing down. Either way it was a TD and I wouldn’t criticize for getting points there

I'm the biggest Hurts critic there is and when he plays well, I eat crow, and when he doesn't, I point it out

He's being a game manager but he's paid like an elite playmaker...there has to be a happy balance

Limit turnovers and make teams pay for devoting too many resources in stopping the run

He's gotta stop being gunshy when there is no threat of an INT

so essentially He isn't really overpaid based on the market, considering his position relative to his peers.

Or could it be QB play is not up to par as whole, especially relative to salary allocation to the position

Your QB shouldn't throw for less than 120 yds when he makes $51M and you're throwing to AJ & Devonta

so you value stats over winning?

Your $51M QB should be a catalyst in winning...I value balance

A QB throwing less than 20x with pro bowl caliber receivers doesn't deserve $51M

We will need balance to beat elite teams & it's that simple
