3 biggest threats to the Cowboys NFC East hopes
By Riley Donald
#3 – Philadelphia’s offense
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, Jaylon Hurts, has shown flashes of playmaking ability and a history of finding ways to win. The former Alabama and Oklahoma QB put up gaudy numbers in college and is a dangerous dual-threat that has shown flashes in limited NFL time.
Add in 2020 Heisman trophy-winning receiver, DeVonta Smith, who played with Hurts at Alabama, and the Eagles’ aerial attack just became a bit scarier. Smith is a proven playmaker that provided 23 touchdowns and over 1,800 yards in just 13 games for the Alabama Crimson Tide.
In the eyes of Hurts and Smith, they see no better young QB-WR in the league. If the two rekindle some of the Alabama magic both have shown in the past, this offense has the potential to be explosive.
