Hurts is a very limited passer. When you struggle to crack 4,000 passing yards in this era of the NFL, there's a problem. Not only would they not have even sniffed the Super Bowl without Barkley having the year he had, but they still would've taken beatdowns from either SF or Detroit who imploded with injuries. Even during Barkley's career year, the Eagles were still an afterthought during that season. Many people forget this.I disagree that Hurts was a game manager. He was a big factor in that SB win, and probably wins SB MVP if they had beaten KC the first time.
As I always said when people used to diss Brady by calling him a game manager or system’s QB, you still have to make those throws. It’s the QB throwing those passes. Hurts was excellent in both of his SB games, despite losing one.
The Chiefs sold out so badly on Barkley that it allowed all their receivers to be ridiculously wide open.
