Episode notes
Hurts’ Aggression-With-Discipline Advantage
- Jalen Hurts balances aggressive downfield passing with very low turnovers, which is rare among top quarterbacks.
- That mix could form a signature stat to push him into MVP conversations if sustained in the second half.
Stat Thresholds That Define MVP Cases
- Passing and rushing yard thresholds matter for MVP narratives; Hurts needs signature counting stats as proof.
- Passing yards, total touchdowns, and roughly 500+ rushing yards are the most plausible benchmarks to elevate his case.
Durability Shapes Hurts’ Pace Projections
- Hurts is on pace for ~3,100 passing yards if he stays healthy, making durability a key factor for award consideration.
- Total touchdowns are more variable; missing games flips tight yardage/touchdown projections quickly.
