Statistically Speaking, Jalen Hurts Is The Best Quarterback In The World Right Now
Kevin Sabitus. Getty Images.I think we can all agree that the best quarterbacks on the planet all play in the National Football League. There's not a European league out there you have to compare guys to. There's not some random dude out there who can sling the rock better than anybody else, but he decided to be an account manager instead. You just have all the best quarterbacks in the world playing together in the same league.
And out of all those guys in the NFL, only one of them have had a perfect passer rating in a game this year. It's not Mahomes. It's not Josh Allen. It wasn't Baker Mayfield or Justin Herbert or Spencer Rattler. Just had to make sure you were still reading by adding Rattler in there.
No. It was none other than the reigning Super Bowl champion and Super Bowl MVP. The greatest quarterback who continues to get hated on and doubted more than any other great in history. Air Force 1.
Everyone wants to bitch and complain about the Eagles offense looking like a mess this year. And sure, it absolutely looked like an atrocious piece of shit before yesterday. But that's just because Nick Sirianni and Kevin Patullo are idiots who don't believe they have the best quarterback on the planet running their offense. Once they turned on their brains and let Jalen Hurts go to work with his arm?
It's a 79-yard bomb to DeVonta Smith. It's a 45-yard bomb to AJ Brown. It's 326 yards through the air, and 3 touchdowns. 5 deep balls on the day, and all of them were daggers. That sure as shit seems like a better way to win football games to me than trying to run the ball up the middle 17 times, and getting stuffed behind the line on at least 15 of them.
Again, these are just facts we're talking about. You can have all the opinions in the world about Jalen Hurts, but the stats prove that all the doubters are brain dead bozos who don't know a goddamn thing.
People lie, numbers don't. And the numbers say Jalen Hurts is that dude.
