On Sunday, the Eagles will play of their first division matchup in opposition to the Washington Commanders and this sport must be private. The Commanders gave the Birds their first lack of the 2022 season.
As a way to forestall that from taking place in back-to-back seasons, the Eagles might want to play a whole sport in all three phases. One of the vital intriguing matchups might be Jalen Hurts and the Eagles offensive line in opposition to the Commanders’ highly effective defensive entrance.
On BGN Radio episode 352, Brandon Lee Gowton talked about an space of concern in relation to Jalen Hurts.
“It’s vital that Jalen Hurts is making some faster selections. That’s one of many issues that’s bothered me along with his season up to now, you have a look at the typical time to throw amongst all NFL quarterbacks and Jalen Hurts ranks fourth slowest.”
Hurts is tied with Deshaun Watson at 3.14 seconds on common to throw. The one quarterbacks which can be slower than him are Justin Fields, Bryce Younger, and Zach Wilson. In comparison with final season the place Hurts had 9 common season turnovers, Hurts has already has 4. We will’t anticipate issues to get any simpler going up in opposition to a robust unit that consists of Chase Younger, Daron Payne, Jonathan Allen and Montez Sweat.
“I really feel prefer it’s type of been a feast or famine for him in that regard. This season I believe there have been instances the place he has received it out actually fast nevertheless it’s both actually fast or very lengthy and I believe there’s type of a contented medium to be discovered there. So, going up in opposition to this defensive position I might assume I’m not say it’s important to be Tua [Tagovailoa] the place he’s eliminating the ball in 2.21 seconds on common … however somewhat bit faster within the processing there would guarantee that the Washington defensive position doesn’t get an opportunity to sack you all day.”
Final season Hurts’ common time to throw was round 2.8 seconds so he’s greater than able to eliminating the ball shortly. He simply must get again to it.
