What is up with the Eagles QB situation?

Reflecting on the Eagles QB group

By: Jake Rajala

There is no secret: the Philadelphia Eagles need to improve their quarterback room. Tanner McKee is their starter right now. He is 0-3 and he’s thrown two touchdowns to two interceptions. The Eagles mine as well copy the Tampa Bay Buccaneers formula and run the ball every play, if McKee is their QB.

The Eagles QB group should welcome a new user. The question is: Who could possibly be the right addition? Yes, Michael Vick and Donovan McNabb are off the table.

There are a few options. I”d love to see Taysom Hill join the Eagles as a QB. He reminds me a lot of Jalen Hurts, with his size, speed, and arm strength. I’d also like to see who can squat more: Hill or Saquon Barkley?

Drew Brees has his gold jacket. Hence, he can return to the league and not lose his place in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Brees may have the same arm strength as a JV quarterback right now, but he can still make a lot of short passes and manage the game. Jalen Hurts also has the tush push and Brees is a pro at jumping over the pile with the football to score.

Don’t get me wrong, the Eagles have their true franchise QB in Jalen Hurts. He won a Super Bowl and was also Super Bowl MVP. He is only 28 years old, too. His presence may have been why Nick Sirianni was crying right before Super Bowl LVII. After all, Hurts is a magician and can do it all.

3 QBs that will take a step back in 2026

Which QBs will sink in 2026?

By: Jake Rajala

The NFL season is around the corner. We will witness studs and we will watch players struggle. We are bound to see quarterbacks, who have the most pivotal position disappoint. With that said, I’m going to lay out a few QBs that will take a step back.

Daniel Jones

I’m not on the Daniel Jones train. He threw 19 touchdowns last season, which is nearly half as many touchdowns that Andrew Luck threw in 2014 (40) and 2018 (39). Jones also only played in 10 games in 2024 and 13 games in 2025. Perhaps he’s been hanging around RG3 too much. Jones also lost one of his best weapons in Michael Pittman Jr. I also don’t love that Jonathan Taylor failed to run more than 100 yards in his last seven games.

Jalen Hurts

Jalen Hurts will lose his partner in crime, A.J. Brown, later this offseason. Brown didn’t drive 100 mph by the Eagles stadium, as Brandon Aiyuk did. However, he did tell fantasy managers to “get rid of him” on Twitch stream. Hurts has a new toy in in Makai Lemon. I still believe the Eagles took a step back from Browns and Smith to Makai and Smith. Yes, I’m talking aout the wide receiver (Smith) who has the same frame as a JV WR. Saquon Barkley also lost a spark as he only had three 100 rushing yard games. The Madden curse may have taken its toll on Saquon. As far as the WR position, don’t even dream about Desean Jackson coming back.

CJ Stroud

It would be an understatement to say CJ Stroud didn’t finish his latest season on a high note. He had four turnovers his latest playoff contest. He made former Texans QB Matt Schaub look like an All-Pro. I don’t love that the Texans didn’t reel in a top-notch weapon for him. We witnessed Tyler Shough get Jordyn Tyson and Cam Ward get Carnell Tate. No, the former Texan DeAndre Hopkins doesn’t count as a quality weapon anymore.
