Jalen Hurts is a winner

[Maniac]

Not the prettiest QB but the guy knows how to win.

And big props to Sean Desaii. Such an improvement over Gannon.

Truth, he actually played a lousy game, but made enough plays to get the W, all that matters.

I agree with all of this

This is an accurate post. I agree with this post.

He's been awesome this season. Struggled tonight. Still 6-0 the last 6 times he's trailed by least 10.

Did you adjust for all of the TDs that don't count? I don't think you did, man!

Hurts broke Cam Newton's record for most rushing TDs by a QB in his first 4 seasons last night.

And he still has 7 more games to build upon that dubious honor, man!

Hurts has a management team composed of five smoke shows. I’d say he is WINNING!

Monday night was #7. It's a cool stat, but a little misleading. The previous 6 were mostly early deficits to bad teams (Washington x 4 in '21 and '23, Indy and Jax last year). Monday was the first time he brought them back from -10 in the second half.

That's not to take anything away from Jalen at all. Keeping your head when you get down early and taking care of business against lesser teams, that's exactly what you want to see from your QB, especially a young QB. But what he did in Kansas City, on the road, in the rain, against the champs, on national TV with 30 million people watching.... that's a whole other level from those other six games. This was more of a turning point than a continuation of a trend.
