I know I know, fuck you too. But I’m actually here for discussion. What do you guys think of hurts? Overrated, underrated, accurately rated? Do you guys think he’ll be a thorn in your side for the foreseeable future or is he a flash in the pan? Levelheaded takes only. I’ll start with a neutral take on Dak:
-I think dak gets a ton of unfair flak and is actually pretty damn solid -as much as we all love to harp on interceptions/turnovers, Dak more than anyone else is never given the benefit of context to tipped interceptions and what not, while other qbs get the benefit of the doubt -Dak is slippery as hell in the pocket, similar to but not as good as Mahomes in that facet. Everytime you think you got home on him he keeps the play alive -the only qualm I have with Dak is he seems to fold in big games. Until he turns the page in the playoffs, I think he’ll continue to get shit. But all it takes is one year to change a narrative.
P.S. I hope he never changes the narrative though 😏
He’s a good QB, not great. I think he has an incredible arm and is extremely accurate, but I think he has bad decision making and doesn’t make reads very quickly, or sometimes at all. I think most of his interceptions stem from forcing the ball to his number 1 option even when the pass just isn’t there. He’s very fast and shifty, but I think he would look pretty pedestrian with any other line. And I think y’all’s brotherly shove is 90% O line and 10% Hurts. Also, I hate it, but when people think it’s a cheat code for any team and should be banned, they’re morons. The brotherly shove works for you guys better than any other team, and there’s nothing wrong with it. Your O line is just too effing good, especially Kelce. Hopefully he finally actually decides to retire.
In conclusion, he’s good enough to be perfect for the system y’all have of all time great O line and 2 all pro level receivers and a great TE. There are a ton of QBs who wouldn’t succeed as well as him in y’all’s system, but he also wouldn’t excel well on most teams in the league either. He’s the perfect fit for you guys, and I hate that. But if he went anywhere else, I wouldn’t fear him. I would still fear your O line and AJ and Davante.
