Only the very elite can elevate a team despite the bad environment. I don’t think Hurts is in that category, but his skill set also opens up a lot of cool stuff for Stoutland and the coaching staff. It’s not just a one-way street. Does he make the players around him better? Not from what i see. Coaches are doing a masterful job and the conference sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches are doing a masterful job and the conference sucks I think you could argue he makes Sanders better. I also think the attention he gets from spies or an extra defender in the box makes the receivers better too. It all goes hand in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
we_gotta_believe Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 1 hour ago, TorontoEagle said: @ManuManu my issue is that whenever the success of the eagles this year is brought up, it’s pounded over and over that it’s mostly due to Hurts improvement which has come because he’s a hard worker. RTK just posted that story a few pages ago that Hurts is "living” in the Novacare because he works so hard. Then you have pages of the Blog gushing over it soon after. Josh Allen obviously has a better arm. But he had a huge deficiency in accuracy and decision making coming into the league. When he made his huge leap, heaps of praise was given to him and Daboll. So much do that Daboll was a very hot coaching commodity. With Hurts, you never really hear about Brian Johnson, who is probably most responsible for the improvement. Sirianni too and of course Steichen. And I think the entire offense is under appreciated as odd as that may seem. It just gets a bit nauseating hearing about Hurts work ethic, or having him highlight it so often in his social media. You get nauseated when people praise the QB of your favorite team during a year in which he's at the helm of the league's best offense? It makes you nauseous to hear about it as we have lost literally only a single game all season and are in prime position to secure HFA and a bye week in the playoffs? I mean, even if it's overly optimistic fluff pieces from the media while you still have doubts that he'll perform up to the same level against the league's top defenses, it's still really weird to me that something like that would actually bother you so much. I could understand it with someone like Vick who did some pretty heinous things off the field, but that's not the issue here so I don't get why some of you guys are so unable to just ignore social media or even what guys like RTK say.

we_gotta_believe Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 1 hour ago, HazletonEagle said: I think his reading has improved. Pre-snap, and quick recognition after the snap. And his passing vision and decision making has improved too. There are numerous plays in ever game last where you could point to and say- he had this guy open for a TD.... This year, we have rarely said that. Hes seeing the plays to be made for the most part. What he is still struggling with is staying composed when he knows a blitz is coming. Or not even a blitz. But seeing 1 OL getting pushed back a little bit. When he leaves a solid pocket and makes a play more difficult because he wouldnt stand in an extra half second, or move just a bit and deliver from a different point. He clearly has some sort of mechanical issue that makes a lot of his short passes nose dive. He inexplicably is a poor passer on the move when mobility has always been the best (and sometimes only redeeming) part of his game. His accuracy on deep balls has been juuuuust good enough, but has been tempting fate often. Whether that fate be an INT or a trip to the hospital for his WRs... Or a fumble caused by his placement of the ball on what could have otherwise been a game winning play. This deep ball accuracy represents an major improvement for him, but still a major area of weakness. He needs to learn to change trajectory at times (though maybe he cant because of his arm strength issue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re a well-coached, well-conceived team that is executing well. We can beat teams in multiple ways — pounding the football, airing it out, winning on defense. I love that the team offensive coaching staff looks at the other team and says what’s their weakness, let’s relentlessly attack that. We don’t have to win any one way.

schuy7 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I wonder how much of an impact analytics have on our gameplans. I have a feeling Nick has really embraced it that part of the process and I think it has made a huge impact on our success, especially early in games. I don’t have any way of knowing this, it’s just something I think could having a big impact that isn’t talked about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
