Jalen Hurts was very Kyler Murray tonight and that team flat dominated the Packers. Gannon talking about the talent difference with the teams in the playoffs is spot on

There is no doubt JG is following the Eagles blueprint.

He might even believe that K1 is the better QB and just needs a better team around him. Wouldn’t be surprising.

It would be surprising because Hurts is a light years ahead as a scorer over Murray

Murray is basically Temu Hurts right now. It's sort of what you ordered but not exactly

Where I think Hurts is ahead of Murray, and it was the same at college level too:

You cannot rattle Hurts.

No matter what just happened, his expression and body language always says "That is exactly what I planned/thought would happen".

Throws and 80 Yard touchdown? Same expression. Throws a pick six? Same expression.

Jalen is so grown up. So icy cool. Murray still developing that composure and poise.

I didn't looks this up before my above statement so here are the actual stats.

Hurts Rushing TDs: 55 Murray's career rushing TDs is 31.

Murray Passing TDs / INTs for his career 115 / 57 Hurts 85 / 49

Fumbles Murray 50 Hurts 45

Combined TDs

Hurts 140 Murray 146. Fumbles / INTs Hurts 94 Murray 107

Murray has started 18 more games than Hurts so basically a full season. Per game ratio is

Hurts 2.12 TDs a game with 1.4 turnovers potentially a game. TD to Turnover 66%

Murray 1.74 TDs a game with 1.12 tunovers a game. TD to turnover 64%

Verdict: Hurts is measurably better at scoring than Murray but they are very close on TD to Turnover %. Temu comment confirmed.

I am going to stop responding to myself but I am pretty proud that I say something off the cuff and then publicly fact check myself.

I get it I am a dick at times but at least I understand I could be wrong as well.

I want Kyler on another team but how cruel would it be if Kyler showed up at the end of the season & even won a playoff game or two with his next team while we’re still….the Cardinals? lmao man

Is this a different multiverse where he’s tall enough to hang in the pocket and deliver strikes when the pressure is on? And if so, how can I get there so I can redo some of the biggest mistakes of my life too?

You’re drinking drano. Did you watch tonight’s game? The difference between winning and losing playoff games is having a QB who can make plays from the pocket even when the heat is on or being tough enough to run your body thru a wood-chipper and keep chipping away.

Kyler will never be either of those players because of his size. That can’t be changed even if the uniform does.

The Steelers made the playoffs with two 20ish QBs. Murray is a marked upgrade over what they had.

Also, I didn't watch the game and drank Drano. You were assholely spot on with that preface.
