13 TD's to 8 INT's.

Meanwhile in Indianapolis.....Hey, how about that Carson Wentz guy?

He just had to leave Philly to rediscover how to play football. 21 TD's and just 5 INT's, There must be some kind of TO jinx on QB's in that city.

Wentz has also directly cost the Colts 2 games now with late game turnovers but yeah, he is a lot better getting out of Philly.
As for Hurts, I realize these days that the running QB is a big thing and Lamar and others are having some success but after hearing what the Giants said about making him pass the ball, it reminds me of Colin Kaepernick without the side show. Take away the running ability and Hurts is not all that great. Philly's WR group isn't very good either, imo.

Hurts is a real good runner, but he is just horrible throwing the ball. The combination he has of poor decision making and lack of talent makes him the worst passer in the league and probably by a lot. They should just use him in the wild cat and get an actual QB

If you lose to the Giants, that says something... something profound.
The Gianta have talent and a good defense but battled injuries.....they aren't a bad team.

^ This is all theoretical.

In practice: the Giants have sucked donkey ass for a long, long time.

Hurts is not NFL QB material. Howie needs to go.

Well he has 8 rushing TDs so its more like 20TDs 13INTs. Of course there is a lot that goes into this from what I have seen the game would be over by the time he puts up any kind of points. Carson is playing in a division with the Jaguars and Texans not to mention playing the Jets/Dolphins this year.

Hurts is a below average NFL passer, and probably not the long-term answer. But this is not a good QB draft, so even though Philly will likely have 3 first rounders, I could see them rolling with Hurts for another year while they rebuild other parts of the team.

Also, while I think Hurts is slow to read defenses sometimes, and has a mediocre arm, his receivers are doing him no favors. Jalen Reagor is a flat-out bust who dropped two very catchable passes late in the Giants game that would have allowed Philly to eke out a win. The dialogue would be very different this morning if they had wideouts who could actually catch those balls.

On Wentz, I still think he is a paper tiger who will get hurt or melt down in due time. But I am happy he has held it together long enough to likely get Philly a first round pick in return. He needs to just make it through like one more game and it is likely he has played 75% of the snaps, which is the requirement. It was either 75% of overall snaps or 70% and a Colts playoff berth. So looking pretty good right now for Philly with the Colts at 6-6 and alive in the playoff hunt. They are just good enough to not be able to sit Wentz.

If they had run every single play, I think they would have beaten the Giants. But they tried to throw and Hurts was horrible. That and some bad penalties killed the Eagles.

Hurts threw not one but TWO touchdown passes on the final drive that literally hit the receiver in the face. Those two “drops” (I’m being kind there) are 100% on Reagor. If he catches either of those two very catchable passes the eagles win the game and this convo about hurts is a completely different one.

I don't know how many starts he's had, but that man stares down his receiver like a 13 year old kid looking at a Playboy centerfold for the first time.

That game plan made zero sense since the run game was very productive. I get they want to evaluate Hurts and see what they have with him but with a WC and possible division title on the line I thought it was the wrong time to try it.

Yes they are a bad team. Agree, about the defense but the offense is brutal. I don't think Barkley will ever recover but I hope he does. They need a new GM and QB.
