On the latest episode of the “Scoop City” podcast, we touched on a point that Chase has been making for a while now: Jalen Hurts might be a good quarterback, but he isn’t throwing like one right now. The partial transcript below has been edited for clarity. The full episode is available now in The “Scoop City” podcast feed.

Jalen Hurts knows the numbers everyone talks about: 131 passing yards, 5.3 yards per attempt, 21 attempts, six passing first downs, seven attempts over 10+ air yards, one attempt over 25+ air yards. He's not oblivious.

In the aftermath of the Eagles’ wild-card playoff win against the Green Bay Packers, Jalen Hurts is focused on the result. It’s fair to acknowledge the uneven production and midgame stagnation from the Eagles’ passing game during the 22-10 win last Sunday — even Hurts did during his Wednesday news conference — but the quarterback also reiterated the priority he places on the final scoreline

Philadelphia's franchise quarterback completed just 13 of 21 passes for 130 yards and two touchdowns. During the game, the lack of significant threat through the air caused many fans and analysts to question Philly's status as a Super Bowl contender. Hurts isn't too worried about the numbers, though.

Jalen Hurts felt little need to defend his pedestrian numbers in his first game in three weeks because of a concussion. The 131 yards passing. The 36 yards rushing.

Back from a two-game concussion absence, the former Alabama QB helped Philadelphia advance in the NFL playoffs.

Jalen Hurts, in his first game since suffering a concussion on Dec. 22, started hot by completing his first six passes. Then he went cold by missing seven straight before recovering in time to lead the Eagles to a hard-fought 22-10 win Sunday.
