NFL Twitter, however, had a variety of reactions to this,
Healthy Lamar and Josh Allen are still better. People really forget Hurts didn’t face any challenging teams really

Yup, Jalen Hurts over Josh Allen until further notice

2nd year as a starter and has his team one drive from winning the Super Bowl. Neither Allen nor Lamar has done that. Matter of fact, we have seen both not show up when the going gets tough. 🤐

Definitely not taking Burrow over Jalen , Burrow is overrated and will be exposed next year #RavensFlock

The stage is all set for Jalen Hurts to come back next year, and prove Snoop right. Even though Hurts and the Eagles fell short this year, the amazing year they had gave the world a glimpse of their capabilities. The only thing left for them is to bounce back and keep the grind going.
The long road ahead
One thing that has impressed fans even more than his talents would be the poise that Jalen Hurts at such a young age. Being on his rookie deal, Hurts is set for a payday in the near future, but that should not be his primary focus. The Philadelphia Eagles and Jalen Hurts must be focused on getting back on top, and the Philly community would love to see them get over the hump.
Despite impressive many, the truth of the matter is that Jalen Hurts fell short. The only possible way to redeem himself would be to keep his head high and come back next year better than before.
