Hurts, Sirianni say all is peaceful between QB and Coach at Eagles’ training camp

Jalen Hurts got to the point quicker than he enters the end zone in a tush push. Before a reporter could finish the first question to Hurts on the first day of Eagles’ training camp about the franchise QB’s seemingly complicated dynamic with coach Nick Sirianni, Hurts cut him off: At the end of the day, all is well with Hurts and the fourth-year head coach.

Hurts later showed his approval of the idea, saying that he believes the team is already in a good state.

Heading into Week 4’s game against the Cowboys, do the Eagles really feel that they are one of the league’s elite inside the locker room?

On a hot Wednesday in Philadelphia, the hundred of fans came to the team’s facility to watch the first drills of camp, the first camp without such legends as Jason Kelce and, obviously, Fletcher Cox and try to read some hidden Squad between Sirianni and Hurts.

Oh yeah, Saquon Barkley, the young running back for the New York Giants was there as well.

The former New York Giants running back Finnegan was an fans darling and the free agent for the team who got signed for a three-year deal for $26 million a minimum of $8 million guaranteed was cheered every time came in contact with the football.

The peaceful time in South Philadelphia maybe admired.

That lingering soap opera from a 10-1 start in the season that resulted in an Eagles 1-5 in the last five games and a wild card defeat was still present even though Sirianni and the Eagles sought to exercise positive thinking at the camp. Significantly, the No. 1 storyline of the night began with QB1 because for months of sources and conjectures that claimed that Hurts and Sirianni had relationship problems last season.

This season, Hurts reporting for his third new OC in as many years, having lost Brian Johnson who succeeded Shane Steichen, the latter having taken the Indianapolis Colts job. It’s another year of another offense, Hurts said in June during the organized team activities practice was 95% different.

Hurts, who is known to mask true feelings with such vague words, admitted in camp there was split within the dressing room during the team’s collapse to the bottom of the standings last season.

“I think whether it be any frustration, any time you have any adversity you have to overcome it, ‘Supposed to test you,’ ” Hurts said. “I guess it’s that everyone is reading from the same script, and if everyone is reading from the same script, maybe we could have done what we could have doing things that we should have done We didn’t, but that’s life experience, Maybe it’s as simple as, if I can make it happen, I make it happen This team has made it happen before, and there is no doubt in my mind that we can make it happen

Sirianni who took the Eagles to the Super Bowl in the 2022 season said: ‘me and Jalen are good. ’

He also did not overstate it and was not complimenting Hurts like some analysts would do.

“The global manager and his coaching staff have achieved a lot in this year and I think that is why I am most excited for him,” Sirianni said. “He so dedicated toward his game. ”

Hurts, who tossed for 3,701 yards and 26 TD passes, rushed for 354 yards and 12 TDs last season, gave Sirianni only tepid support after the playoff loss at Tampa Bay. Hurts said days later that his reaction was only due to the barrage of questions regarding Sullivan’s job security about Sirianni.

Sirianni has three playoff trips in three seasons, a Super Bowl appearance and the team wins 67% of its regular season games.

Temperatures where also raised some two weeks ago when the Eagles wide receiver A. J. Brown had a career-best 106 catches last season quickly to dismiss that Hurts and Sirianni had issues to resolve before the camp.

“Football is back,” Brown said laughing. “Yeah, they are. It is part of it you just come and join and get in the punch. ”

This situation is not a discovery in this season because early on, Hurts realized that he must take up the role of leadership more than ever before, especially with Kelce, Cox out and Graham describing this year’s as his final one. While usually reserved in interviews, Hurts ensured his voice was a topic of conversation at camp — which began with the Eagles possessing a real shot at the latter.

“My message to the team,” Hurt said, “I’ve been on very talented teams pretty much my whole career. I’ve played talent. Talent wins you games. It’ll take you very far. But it don’t last. Teams is what wins championships. That’s what we’re trying to do. ”

These are words coming from the heart since during the Super Bowl, out of a possible 158, Hurts scored 304 through passes and one touchdown, lacked one shy of 70 in rushes but delivered three touchdowns, and got equal to a 2-point conversion ever during the Kansas City game even as his team lost. He was named as the runner up in NFL MVP and this was his reward for his efforts; he was given a lavish contract of five years between $255 million/$179. 3 million guaranteed.

It’s what Philly lacks if they’re to get a shot at winning the Super Bowl – and there was definitely little a part of the city that wanted to see the Seahawks be triumphant as much as Benn.

And they say well maybe he can’t improve anymore or can’t do this anymore and for a guy like Rah CAB Rah that has tremendous amount of energy tremendous amount of work ethic he is going to continue to work on anything that he feels like can be improved on he will always do. “This is a guy that has given us great success given the time starting as our, our franchise quarterback, he has played at a very high level, I have a lot of faith that no matter what he will do during the season to be in contention for MVP. ”
