Hurts For MVP???

 

Eagles wire

Jalen Hurts is among the leading NFL MVP candidates with the Eagles 6-2 at the bye week.

The Philadelphia Eagles enter the bye week 6-2 with QB Jalen Hurts clearly in the NFL MVP picture.

97.5 PHILADELPHIA

The case is there. You can argue that through 8 weeks, it is the strongest case in the NFL. Does that mean he will win it? No. At this point last year, you might have called Lamar Jackson a lock, and it was Josh Allen who eventually took home the hardware. How each of these players plays over the next 10 weeks is far more important than how they played in the first 8.

But the point is, Hurts is in that conversation and deserves to be there. Outside of the first Giants game, which was a struggle for the whole team, Hurts has been the Eagles' best player. It will be hard for anyone to argue that he gets carried by his roster if he keeps this play up. And he just might earn himself some personal hardware to go along with that Lombardi Trophy.

Analyst OJ Spivey:

Per the NFL: Jalen Hurts – who has 15 TD passes, five rushing TDs and one interception this season – is the first quarterback in NFL history with at least 15 TD passes, five rushing TDs and one-or-fewer interceptions in his team’s first eight games of a season. #FlyEaglesFly
