Hard to not point fingers at Ballard and Reich..
Imagine the Eagles go on to win the SB...
That would be what twice in a decade that our Assistant coach goes on to be the winning SB coach within a decade.

Jalen Hurts? You're joking, right? This is a joke? That's the only explanation that makes sense. The Eagles put an incredible amount of talent around Jalen Hurts to make him look as good as he has. A.J. Brown has half of Hurts's passing TDs and is on pace for 1,600 receiving yards. DeVonta Smith is his #2 WR, which is almost as good as when Reggie Wayne was the Colts #2 WR, then there's the freakishly large and fast Dallas Goedert at TE, who also projects to a career year, and let's not forget the oft-injured Miles Sanders approaching a career high in carries after 8 games and not missing any time this season. If this was Jalen Hurts's second season starting for the Colts, you'd be calling for Ballard's head for drafting him, with good reason.
This Ehlinger experiment they're purporting to believe makes the team "the most competitive" is likely a calculated risk of throwing away this season in an attempt to get the draft capital to acquire a franchise QB, most likely through the draft. It would look much the same if the name on the back of the jersey was Hurts instead of Ehlinger. |
