I have a feeling that the FOX broadcast crew will have a field day talking about the two uber-athletic, talented quarterbacks who both balled out in Norman once upon a time. Murray and Hurts will now face off in the pros for the second time.
Hurts transferred to Oklahoma for the 2019 season, which had produced Heisman Trophy winners and first-overall picks in back-to-back years: Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray. Current Patriots QB Mac Jones was also on that Crimson Tide squad. He went in the same draft class as former Bama teammate Tua Tagovailoa, who he was benched in favor of during the 2017 College Football National Championship Game. Hurts, given that he played for both Alabama and Oklahoma in his collegiate career, has a wide cast of quarterbacks to be compared to. Broadcast TV segments comparing Kyler Murray and Jalen Hurts: 1.5 I'll go wild this week and says he records at least 401 yards. Hurts easily eclipses 400 yards against both the Vikings and Commanders if the offense doesn't take their foot off the pedal in the second half with double-digit leads set in stone. He also bulled in his way through Cardinals All-Pro safety Budda Baker into the end zone: Hurts threw three touchdowns and racked up 338 yards through the air. Though it was a losing effort, it showcased some of Hurts' prime traits that he's been able to fully put together this season. It was a game where Eagles fans might have been thinking, "Huh, they might have something there," after initially being confused as all hell as to why the team drafted Hurts. In Jalen Hurts' second-ever NFL start back in 2020, he recorded 401 yards of total offense in a 33-26 loss to the Cardinals in Arizona. Jalen Hurts yards of total offense: 400.5
Seriously.Īs I do every week, I've come up with five imaginary over/unders for the game that I'll discuss.
I'm getting increasingly more stoked for this game with every word I type. Nothing is when there's a zero in the loss column and every team knows the way the football world is gassing up the Eagles. The Eagles have not beaten the Cardinals on the road since 2001 and are winless in the currently named State Farm Stadium (including the 2008 NFC Championship Game). As everyone with a pulse in the Delaware Valley knows, the Birds are the NFL's lone remaining undefeated team.
The Eagles are headed West for the first (not the last?) time this season with their matchup against the Cardinals in Arizona on Sunday.
