Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is not letting a blowout loss to the Dallas Cowboys affect his confidence. After the Eagles’ 37-17 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday, Hurts sent a strong message to the team and the fans.
“We’re going to keep fighting,” Hurts said. “We’re going to keep pushing. We’re going to keep believing. We’re going to keep trusting the process. We’re going to keep trusting in each other. We’re going to keep believing in ourselves.”
Hurts, who was making his second start for the Eagles, completed 22 of 39 passes for 338 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. He also rushed for 29 yards on seven carries.
The Eagles trailed the Cowboys 24-3 at halftime and were unable to mount a comeback in the second half. Despite the loss, Hurts showed poise and resilience in the face of adversity.
“We just gotta keep believing in ourselves,” Hurts said. “We just gotta keep working. We just gotta keep pushing. We just gotta keep trusting the process. We just gotta keep trusting in each other. We just gotta keep believing in ourselves.”
Hurts’ message was echoed by head coach Doug Pederson, who praised his quarterback for his performance and his leadership.
“Jalen did a great job,” Pederson said. “He’s a young player who is still learning and growing. He’s got a lot of fight in him and he’s not afraid to stand up and take responsibility. He’s a leader and he’s going to keep getting better.”
The Eagles will look to rebound from the loss when they face the New York Giants on Sunday. Hurts will look to build on his performance and prove that he can be the leader the Eagles need.
Hurts’ message of resilience and belief is something that the Eagles can use to their advantage. With Hurts at the helm, the Eagles can still make a run for the playoffs and prove that they are a team to be reckoned with.
Hurts’ strong message is a reminder that the Eagles still have a chance to turn things around and that they have the talent and determination to do so. The team will look to Hurts to lead them to victory and show that he is the leader they need.
