On the other hand, Philly looked unstoppable on the ground, and hung 35 on a team that's considered to be one of premier contenders in the NFC

Nobody thinks this about the Vikings TBH. The roster is talented enough but they were 11-0 in one-score games last season, which isn't sustainable.

Pretty sure they won their division with a negative point differential lol

THE DEM DEFENDER HAS LOGGED ON

He's a great passer already. He just isn't a threat to pass first, which is fine. I'd take someone who is a threat to get a first down every time they throw the ball over a big armed pocket passer in today's NFL.

other teams have tried that push-sneak land can't get it done, and Minshew wasn't good at it either with the same OL, so Hurts is contributing something unique in those 1 yard must-have situations

that said, it doesn't mean anything about his running ability cause the other contemporary QB with that same unique skill is Tom Brady

Brady was good at picking his spot, Hurts is good at picking his spot and also can squat like 600 pounds

Yea Hurts reminds me of my favorite player of all time Darren Sproles in that he isn’t all that big but he has like 3 layers of muscles on every inch of his body

He is indeed a good runner tho wtf? Like not ADP but he runs to the edge well and the qb sneak thing works which is better than most qbs

I don't think he's a top tier runner like Vick or Lamar nor is he built to hammer people like Jones or Newton. He plays too much like the latter instead of the former. I don't think he has the agility or speed to be like Lamar either. It's more that he's good enough and that's perfectly fine in the NFL. It's why a good 40 time doesn't matter too much as a 4.3 versus a 4.6 is breadths of a step that can be made up by a misstep/weaker throw/jammed at the line/etc.

insufferable
My worry is the ball security considering how much contact he gets into. He doesn't have running back ball security to be going into contact so much.

I did pick them for last in the division, but, drat, this is bad. The Jason Garrett led offense was better than this.
