This is how it starts, no QB can hold up in this league running 8-10 times a game year after year, and this guy is averaging about 13 carries a game.

Just like what is happening with Lamar Jackson constantly missing games here and there with nagging injuries, you'll see the same out of Hurts.

That tells me they know the Eagles are going to sit some folks.
How is it that Vegas would have more inside knowledge than professional sports writers have? Baffles my mind.

Cross-posting this just because.

That explains the line moving.

Finally saw vids of his interceptions. Were those after he took the hard hit on the shoulder, anyone know?

The fact that we lost yesterday makes it easier for them to sit him.

They can't just sit him the rest of the regular season though unless we fuck up against Minshew.

If we win out and they lose out because they're sitting him, we win the division.

I only watched bits and pieces of that game, but from the little I saw the Bears laid a couple of solid hits on Hurts.

there will be a holocaust if we lose to Gardner Minshew

I just double checked and Hurts threw his 2 INTs in the 1st quarter. Schefter and others are saying the shoulder injury occurred in the 3rd quarter.

Weird that he was able to finish the game but will now be out for possibly two weeks.

This changes their offense pretty substantially, doesn't it? I've never paid much attention to Minshew, but he's not nearly the running threat that Hurts is, right?
They certainly will not have the QB running as a major part of the gameplan.

It takes away a lot of their run action. Mainly a lot of those read options and QB draws they've been making a living off of.

But from the pocket, Minshew is probably a superior passer.
