Eagles’ Offensive Shake-Up for 2024 Season: Can Hurts Reclaim His Spot as a Top Quarterback?
In a stunning turn of events, the Philadelphia Eagles’ promising 2023 NFL season took a nosedive, resulting in their elimination in the Wild Card round against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After a strong 10-1 start, something clearly went awry for the Eagles.
Offensively, Philadelphia seemed out of sync under first-time offensive coordinator Brian Johnson. However, there is hope for a turnaround in the upcoming season. Head coach Nick Sirianni has made a bold move by bringing in former Los Angeles Chargers and Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore.
Moore, highly respected for his offensive system, is seen as a great addition to the Eagles’ coaching staff. His main focus is to unlock the full potential of quarterback Jalen Hurts, who showed immense promise in 2022. Moore aims to make Hurts a dynamic player once again, utilizing his dual-threat abilities.
Under Johnson, Hurts spent more time in the pocket, looking to make downfield throws. However, it is his ability to tuck and run the football that sets him apart as one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in the league. With Moore calling the plays, the Eagles plan to incorporate more option and keeper plays to fully utilize Hurts’ unique skillset.
Fans can expect a bounce-back season from Hurts and the Eagles in 2024. If all goes according to plan, Hurts has the potential to reclaim his spot as one of the league’s top quarterbacks.
