Hurts contract extension decision

[mall3013]

A report today that the Eagles are interested in talking extension sooner as opposed to later. They may have something done by the Eagles bye which I think is like week 6 or 7.

I voted for the hold off and wait approach. I see no reason to rush with an extension only a couple weeks into the season. Let him play and continue to grow with the offense. Howie can get a deal done after the season.

LOL
first you twisted the running QB in Dallas
You had a daily field day with Dak's contract.

And now...

What's different is I am still skeptical of Hurts, who has a much smaller sample size of success than Dak had when his contract extension became an issue.

Hurts has only played really well this year as a passer, before that he was sketchy. Hurts isn't even eligible yet as others have noted. Get it now?

Dallas waited so long they had to franchise Dak. Totally different situation.

At the same time, I chose see more data. I’m still pretty smitten with the idea of Bryce Young or Marcus Stroud. I want to see how the best league with the best defensive minds in the world reacts to the step forward he has made and how he handles it before I’m sold. Drafting QBs is always risky business but I think the prospects in this upcoming draft hold a ton of promise.

I'm assuming you mean CJ Stroud? Never heard of Marcus Stroud. Being a Buckeye fan I think you are referring to my guy CJ?

Jerry wasn't sure.

Remember the field day of signing wince? You laughed for days at Dallas and talked differently back then too. Sorry, I ain't buying. The biggest difference is you guys are sold on three games.

I want CJ or Bryce Young in a Hawks uni next year.

CJ is the better pocket passer with accuracy. Young is a more of a dual threat QB. So if you want a QB who will run, then Young is probably a better fit. CJ can run, but really doesn't need to with the Arsenal of weapons he has in his rec e iver room. He did run a couple of times last weekend vs Wisconsin. Not a pretty runner, but can I guess.

Need more data. It's worth 10 million a year not to fuck it up.

Say you pay him 40 now and the Bucs do the same exact thing to him again in the playoffs. What then besides sticking your head in your own ass?

I'm good either way as I believe both will be good NFL QBs

I voted do it now. Hurts has looked good behind that awesome Oline, but I’d rather see Philthy keep him verses finding a Josh Allen. Meanwhile, hopefully the redskins find a Josh Allen. Lol

I'm OK with the Commanders finding a Josh Allen, as long as they don’t find an OLine

Hurts looks like an average starting quality QB with upside at this point. Both sides can talk about a new deal but it can't be ratified until after this season is done. Like others i'm not convinced Hurts is a QB you want if you're down 2 scores in the 2nd half. Regardless, he's not going to play out his 4th season on a cheap rookie contract.
Good luck to the guy. Nice to see a team being proactive.
