Absolutely laughable. Purdy should be first in MVP by a mile
NFL
A place for NFL news, game highlights and everything that excites you about American Football.
Why? He was mid last night
Stroud should be the frontrunner, or Myles Garrett
CJ Stroud
Hurts is really just a great fit for his system and he is surrounded by elite offensive weapons.
Not sure I’m convinced that if you put him in, say Carolina, he’s still an MVP.
(See how dumb that sounds.)
If mvs catches that ball it's mahomes is still the guy
im torn here. like, we expected these guys to do what they’re doing. i really think stroud and what hes done in houston makes him more valuable to his team than what mahomes or hurts does.
Making this post after 150 yd game of whatever the fuck we just watched is wild lol
Hurts is a damn good QB but…come on. There’s more valuable players this year. Sorry Eaglesbros, don’t take this as a knock on Mr. Franchise.
KC did a hellava lot more to lose that game than the Eagles did to win it
How the hell does someone watch the game yesterday and come to this conclusion
If Hurts wins MVP this year then the award loses all credibility
If Myles Garrett can keep pace, or improve his stats this season he should get some love because there’s no clear QB leaders.
I know there’s virtually no shot, but a DPoY & some MVP love would be nice regardless.
If the Broncos make the playoffs, give it to Russ if we’re not going to give it to a non-QB
Hurts one upping Mahomes? Please. Swift carried drives and his WRs made incredible grabs compared to the easy stuff the Chiefs dropped. Mahomes was still the better QB last night.
Myles Garrett should be the front runner for MVP this year. CLE's D is one of the only reasons they are where they are and Garrett is on an incredible tear.
Only QB even close to MVP caliber rn is Stroud
Give it to Hill or Garrett
CMC, Hill, AJB all deserve it more. Statistically Hurts isn’t even in the top 3 in the NFC for QBs.
MaHomed
Lol who watches that game with Mahommes Wr dropping wide open TDs, fumbling the ball in the RZ and thought “yah Hurts played better”?
If Hurts didn’t get hurt last year it would’ve been his I thought.
I hope he gets it this year.
Unfortunately OPOY has become the defacto “non QB MVP award”. While a QB can win it, and a non-QB can win MVP, at this point it seems clear that MVP will be a QB and OPOY will be a WR/RB
Give it to CMC, you cowards.
If I had a vote, my top 3 rn would be some order of CMC, Tyreek Hill, and Myles Garrett
Yeah, all those throws into the ground and one for a pick were elite!
Did he really one up mahomes?? Don’t get me wrong he’s not been bad this year but tyreek or cmc should be the front runner
Calm down athletic, Mahomes' receivers beat him. Not really Hurts.
It don't matter how good of a quarterback you are if your receivers won't catch the ball.
Mvp shouldn’t be a qb this year. If they give it to a qb on an off year then they’re just destroying the award imo. Why would hurts be an mvp? What has he done better than even AJ brown or Tyreek hill? What he has a lot of 1 yard rushing TDs? Coty award is a joke, comeback is a joke, mvp is a joke.
He jumps to favorite after that performance? Really?
What a joke of an award
Just make it the "Best QB Award" for the love of god.
Jalen Hurts is not blowing me away like Myles Garrett, Tyreek Hill and Christian McCaffrey are. It saddens me MVP has been reduced to a QB only award.
The MVP award has become the QB of the 1 or 2 seed.
Hate to say it, but I think Tyreek Hill should get it
What!? Fucking how?
Have some fucking balls and name a non-QB
Purdy is ahead of Hurts in every passing stat. Yes Hurts has the 9 rushing TDs, most of which are from 1 yard but it's absurd to think that makes him the MVP.
Just to be clear this is more of an argument against Hurts as mvp than in favor of Purdy.
CMC or Tyreek should be MVP IMO
Weird takeaway from that game tbh. Hurts looks meh while Mahomes still looks as good as usual with zero help from the supporting cast
CMC disappear?
I am a massive Hurts lover, but dude did not do anything last night to jump into top of the MVP race. Give it to AJ Brown, Tyreek, CMC, Myles Garrett...
Cmon he shouldn’t even be in consideration they are practically winning in spite of him this year. He has been much worse than last year.
Man Hurts gets no respect with football fans outside Philly. It’s sad.
Hurts has 13 consecutive wins against teams with winning records, breaking a tie with Peyton Manning and Vinny Testaverde for the most in NFL history.
Since the stat was first tracked in 1991, Hurts is the only quarterback with five straight victories when his team trails by double digits (streak at seven). Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Philip Rivers, and Vinny Testaverde each have four straight wins when their team trails by 10-plus points -- tied for second on the all-time list.
Hurts has a .389 win percentage when trailing by 10-plus points, the second-best mark in the Super Bowl era (Patrick Mahomes is first with .560). Hurts is 8-11 when trailing by 10-plus points in his career, having a better win percentage than Tom Brady (.378) and Joe Montana (.370) -- third and fourth people on the list.
What Hurts is accomplishing is unprecedented, as he's 26-2 in his last 28 starts. The Eagled are 9-1 in consecutive seasons for the first time in franchise history as a result.
Oh yeah that 150 yard performance and the 1 yard qb sneaks were such an incredible qb duel performance…
Myles Garrett?
Patrick mahomes had the better game funny enough but dropped passes cost the chiefs
I mean I get why because of being a quarterback on the best record and beating mahomes but I gotta say hurts didn’t look spectacular yesterday either.
Trying not to be a homer here but the only reason it isn’t near unanimous that Purdy is thus far the MVP is the assumption he will come down to earth. Or maybe the wrong assumption that he’s just throwing short screen passes and his ball carriers are doing the rest. The reality is Purdy leads in all efficiency stats and near the top in most bulk stats while winning most games comfortably and playing ball control clock killing offense more than most other QB’s. His average length of throw is the furthest, and yards per attempt and completion are both absolutely bonkers and greater than most MVP QB seasons. Yes he has an incredible supporting cast, but the QB’s before him had them and weren’t playing this great.
If there's ever a year for a non QB to win it it's this year. If Tyreek hits 2k yards he should win it. No QB has been good enough to separate themselves from the pack.
Crazy to think we’re on the final half of the regular season games. Time flies.
Hurts did not play well come the fuck on man lol
He’s a great QB but he seems to avoid the “look at the talent around him” criticism and the turnover criticism. I get that they’re top in the division and again he’s a great QB but I don’t see MVP.
