https://www.inquirer.com/eagles/doug...-20210104.html When Doug Pederson pulled Jalen Hurts for Nate Sudfeld early in the fourth quarter in Sunday’s season finale against Washington, many Eagles players and coaches were shocked and outraged, team sources told The Inquirer. Some were angry. Two defensive players had to be held back from approaching Pederson. Center Jason Kelce and another offensive starter went to the coach to ask him why he had pulled the starting quarterback with the Eagles trailing by only three. Hurts was distraught, as well. Even though he had been told Wednesday that there was a chance Sudfeld could play, he couldn’t understand why Pederson would make the switch, sources close to the situation said. The NBC broadcast caught Hurts on the bench after he was replaced apparently saying, “That’s not right.” “As a competitor, I play to win,” Hurts said after the game when asked for his reaction. “You have to trust [Pederson’s plan].” In many cases, Eagles players and assistants had no inclination that Sudfeld was part of the offensive game plan, and if they did, they figured it had been abandoned because of the tight score.

Jalen was 7/20 for 72 yards and a 1 int. 34 yards rushing, albeit two TD's rushing. We all said it here the first drive the Eagles scored on was a complete gift from the refs; it was penalty after penalty keeping that drive alive. So basically the one drive that got the Eagles to 14 was legit. Jalen Hurts wasn't keeping the Eagles in the game our poor offensive play was keeping the Eagles in. Eagles don't win with Jalen or Sudfeld.
