Jalen Hurts Enters Rare Air: Eagles’ QB Joins Drew Brees in Exclusive Postseason Club
It has been a while since we have seen so much hate, criticism and questioning of a quarterback who is about to play in a Super Bowl. But, that is exactly the world Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been living in.
Down the stretch of the regular season, narratives were constantly written in regards to the Eagles’ passing attack and how it hasn’t been good enough. Hurts hasn’t been good enough. Maybe even the receivers have been upset.
At least, that’s what the media wants us to think. The media has done everything they can to smear Hurts’ name and try to create something out of nothing.
The bottom line is, the Eagles are winning and they’re one game away from a championship as they take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59. What more could you possibly want? Critics are going to do what they do best, but when it comes to Hurts, those critics better pay attention to some of the numbers.
And, one particular number proves Hurts to be in elite company.
Jalen Hurts’ postseason numbers are unfathomable for a quarterback his age
At the moment, one of the most impressive aspects of Hurts’ postseason career is the fact that he has gone a ridiculous 206 passes without throwing an interception. This is the second-longest streak in history, only to the great Drew Brees.
Just that statistic alone should be enough to quiet the doubters. Hurts is in company which includes Brees. That’s all you need to know.
