Doug Gottlieb - Are We Sure Jalen Hurts Isn't the Problem? 

Philly never learns. Jalen Hurts is an athletic game manager at best with an elite offensive line, elite WRs and a solid defense. They did the same thing with Carson Wentz and got rid of him quickly

Paying Hurts like that was a mistake even before any of this. They'll see. Some people in the organization probably regret it already.

Finally! Someone says it.

He currently has more bad games than good ones

Jalen Hurts is definitely 1 of the problems. He was propped up too fast for a 1 year vs a easy schedule and a “superbowl” run when it was against Daniel Jones & CMC at quarterback. I still have him 8-10 range but he isnt a top 5 qb. The top 5 are the xfactors. Everything under 5/6 are ranked by whos the better game manager

Good take

I will say Jalen is too nonchalant & acts like hes mentally above his guys. Thats only cool when your winning. When your losing & he's looking at his team like "it is what it is" then you dont feel the same. Thats exactly why your QB is more than just a game manager. He wasnt an emotional leader

Definitely the problem. Plus he can’t tackle and he sucks as a db.

Y’all full of it putting this on Jalen. Tbh, no one knows what happened yet. And DG hates everyone. Lazy, stupid take.

Jalen Hurts is NOT the long-term answer at QB. I cannot ignore how Hurts carried himself during the last 7 games. He provided no leadership. He made no attempt to rally his fellow players. His very own body language shouted that he had QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He got his money and now is playing un-inspired football. Gangster mentality is there, too! Just look at how A. Smith played down the stretch. There was no change in his approach to playing his position like you saw in Jalen. Mark my words: You will not be successful, moving forward, with Jalen Hurts!

Was Hurts the "problem" last year when he was a couple plays from being SuperBowl MVP?

Eagles paid a Linsanity run QB.

I like Hurts but they paid him to soon. His contract kicks in next year and they have tons of needs all over the defense.

I never thought hurts was good it was a flash in the pan and really good scheme I never drank the koolaid

nope, Justin Herbert is the problem, keep trolling and hating on da Original Man.

Said this as soon as people started to say pay him. I can’t believe he got the contract he did especially before baker. Baker is the true franchise qb and he was passed on. But this guy flukes into a massive deal

More athletic Tua

Been saying this. Hurts is APATHETIC on the sidelines this he’s a great guy and leader is 🧢🧢 straight fugaze

Yeah Doug Jalen is the problem and not thier defense

Hurts was paid like he can overcome..and he can't!

He’s just like alot of QBs have been, just has one good season and that’s it. He’s trash

I wouldn’t say that they snuck past the Commanders twice. The first time in Philly yes, but that second game is a no the Eagles iced that game with the fake Brotherly Shove

For the record go look at this guy take on Lamar Jackson it tells you all you need to know. 😅😅 before Burrow got his 2nd ACL injury he was having a bad Yr so was Herbert. Lmao get rid of hurts for what look at Derek Carr he got paid by the saints it’s funny how you ain’t mention that 😅

Of course he enjoys seeing a Black QB lose shocking 😂😂

Bro at this point it was the whole damn teams fault just about.. hurts . The offensive line. The defense and the coaches. Brown smith and swift. Did ok.

The two fundamentals of football are blocking and tackling. The eagles struggled with both, and neither are the qb's responsibility.

Where does Doug Gottlieb go to get his talking points? Because most of his stuff seems to be like Fox News Fox Sports Radio

I’ve been saying this for a couple years

all signs point to jalen being a problem he can't read a defense

He is just like Dak Prescott. Being paid like hes a GREAT when in reality Jalen Hurts is an average qb at best.

Philly fan here and hurts it’s not that guy

Of course blame the black quarterback for everything. The defense was suspect all year but it’s him. Classic Doug, the racist.

So I guess Jalen plays wr, oline, dline, Db, and Lb 🤔 🤦🏾‍♂️ stop the bs Jalen been hurt and they lost offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator 🤦🏾‍♂️ things aren’t going be the same as last yr 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤡🤡🤡

From one obnoxious man to another

Phony lol. Yeah he does give that kind of vibe.

Hurts and Tua are not franchise QB's.

Is he serious Jalen hurts is literally a top 10 quarterback in the NFL the dude proved last year that he is legit gonna be in the MVP conversation for years and years to come the problem I saw was that they got away from what made him who he is and that’s the run game he is a running quarterback he’s one of the top five running quarterbacks in the NFL he wasn’t as dynamic as he was last year when the Eagles went to the Super Bowl even though he literally set the record for most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback but They seem hesitant to run him a few times a game he’s never going to be a straight up down back passer.

1st

Who is your team?

Funny how you say players know, especially after Hurts was challenged to step up and lead by Cox and Kelce a few weeks ago to no avail. Simple truth is that this team was fool’s gold for all the reasons you mentioned-especially last year’s schedule and backup QB competition-and Hurts was elevated to silence anyone who knew Wentz was the scapegoat for Howie’s draft blunders. Going back to players know; please name one single Eagles leader that wasn’t infuriated when Wentz got blamed for no receiving and a mangled o-line and Doug’s play calling and Schwartz’s lack of? Cox and Kelce were livid! The best players on Indy and Washington said the same thing … Wentz was a leader. No doubt he could have easily put up better numbers than Hurts with that talent. Eagles will be fool’s gold as long as poor-man’s Dak is allowed to pout…I mean “lead”
