Jalen Hurts addressed concerns following the Philadelphia Eagles’ close loss to the Atlanta Falcons, particularly emphasizing trust in running back Saquon Barkley after a critical dropped pass. Despite the setback, Hurts expressed confidence that the team would improve and learn from the experience.
Data indicated that Barkley's drop, while regrettable, did not singularly determine the game’s outcome, as the Eagles still had a favorable chance of winning even after the mistake. Barkley acknowledged the drop but committed to improving, highlighting his strong performance with the Eagles so far this season.
