I said last year that Hurts was not some elite QB as he was made out to be. Philly just had a favorable schedule, well built team, and some luck. Hurts looks pretty average this year, just like I thought he was.
This is exactly how I feel about that one. I think he didn't take off and run because coaching is too much in his head about that. Even if they mean to just be smart and go oob, it's just one more thing in the back of Allen's head that he has to think about. They are trying too hard to coach Allen out of Allen. Maybe down the road Allen has that figured out and is smart about his running but at this point, it's just messing with his brain. I could see the confliction in his head in the preseason game. He went to take off to run but then hesitated. That hesitation led to him getting nailed. This stuff is going to get him hurt before him just being himself will get him hurt.
I liked the comment at the end of the article
I agree but I also think Davis ran a poor route.
But wouldn't smart football been conservative football and taking the 2 yards instead of the Ints against the Jets? He is said smart not conservative. Isn't aggressive the opposite of conservative and Josh was aggressive.
I'll give you thumbs up. I know what it's like to leave an opinion on something and have certain select people leave a bunch of "down vote" marks and then treat you like you just spoke sacrilege and are a moron. I don't agree with everything you said but I do with some it and have said some of it.
It's just my mindset bro. I dont actually believe they are all must win. I just don't want to be at the end of the season for the third year in a row wishing we would have just won that one more game... any of them and gotten the 1 seed.
Also you kind of contradict yourself here. Your first two sentences indicate its kinda a must win. Hard to come back from 0-2. It's one of the easier games on the schedule. You follow that up with "IMHO its not a must win"
