The Subtle Shift That’s Transforming the Eagles’ Offense
Jalen Hurts and the Eagles’ New Rhythm
Something feels different about Jalen Hurts. There’s a new rhythm to his play — and it’s changing everything for the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense.
Offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo confirmed the evolution, crediting Hurts’ relentless mindset: “He’s always asking, ‘What else can we do? How can I improve?’ He’s driven to challenge himself.”
The shift is strategic. The Eagles are putting Hurts under center more often, forcing defenses to respect the traditional downhill run — and opening up explosive play-action opportunities downfield.
The proof? Hurts has been nearly flawless: 505 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions in two straight wins. The Eagles are now 6-2 heading into the bye week — and their confidence is surging.
The New Blueprint for Hurts
This adjustment has reignited the run game. In the Week 8 rematch against the Giants, the Eagles rushed for a season-high 276 yards, including Saquon Barkley’s 65-yard touchdown to set the tone.
Hurts is fully embracing the change: “I enjoy being under center and complementing our run game — finding that flow. It’s not about the formation itself but about how we leverage it.”
After years of rotating coordinators, Hurts knows chemistry takes time: “It’s a culmination of experiences together.” Now, his partnership with Patullo is clearly paying off.
As the Eagles enter their bye week, health is returning, momentum is rising, and Hurts — now commanding the offense with calm precision — is steering this team toward something special. “The best is yet to come,” he said. After these past two weeks, few would argue.
