Jalen Hurts reveals his personal game plan during his breakout season

Despite owning an 8-4 record heading into Week 14, The Philadelphia Eagles are surrounded by criticism due to the lack of firepower from the offense. on Thursday, Jalen Hurts addressed some concerns with his own personal game plan.

While speaking with members of the media, the 27-year-old quarterback denied a previous report that claimed he doesn’t want to handle the ball how much more. Hurts claimed he was simply sticking to the team’s weekly game plans with the goal of getting wins, according to 94 VIP’s Elliott Shore-Parks.

“I was always focused on doing whatever it took to win, and I always put my energy into trying to bring the game plan and strategy to life that week,” Jalen Hurts said. “So I’m going to keep doing it.”

The response to the report that he doesn’t want to run the ball as much this season hurts:

The public seems to believe Hurts’ production is down this season. However, when comparing his numbers this year to the 2024-25 campaign, the only real difference is in efficiency, as his number of attempts are about the same when it comes to running the ball.

He’s certainly passing the ball more, as he’s just 19 pass attempts away from surpassing last season’s 361 pass attempts. But his rushing attempts per game barely dipped. In 2024-25, Hurts averaged 10 rushing attempts per game, compared to eight this year. The key difference, however, is that his yards per game average has dropped significantly. Last year it was 42.0, and this season it was 27.4.

Either way, the Eagles are still well in the playoff picture, as the team is 8-4 in Week 14. With five games remaining in the regular season, increasing efficiency would be a nice step forward, not only for Jalen Hurts but for the offense in general.

Philly will be hoping to get back into the win column on Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. Victory for the Eagles will keep them well ahead in the NFC East standings, while the loss drops the Dallas Cowboys to just one game ahead.
