Jalen Hurts just dropped an offseason training video, and NFL fans wasted no time turning it into meme material. Instead of hyping up the Philadelphia Eagles’ star QB, some fans zeroed in on his biggest flaw, holding the ball too long.
Despite Hurts grinding away in the gym, critics couldn’t resist throwing shade, suggesting old habits die hard.
Jalen Hurts Back to Work, But Fans Turn His Grind Into Meme Fuel
Hurts wasted no time getting back to business. Just two weeks after battling it out in the Super Bowl, the Eagles’ QB was already grinding in an offseason training video. But instead of praise, fans couldn’t resist firing off some playful jabs.
The main gripe? Hurts’ habit of holding onto the ball too long – an issue that’s haunted him since last season.
One fan quipped, “Still holding the ball forever even when not pressured,” turning the QB’s hard work into meme fuel.

Another pointed out his over-commitment to drills, joking, “Why he doin that like he ain’t giving the ball off?”

Meanwhile, some fans had his back, with one reminding everyone that “If u stay ready, u don’t have to get ready.” Hurts’ dedication clearly isn’t lost on everyone.
The emotions weren’t all jokes, though. One fan admitted to feeling “extremely jealous” of Philly’s recent success, while another critic questioned Hurts’ ability to carry the team, claiming he was “practicing for when he’ll actually have to perform to win games.”
Of course, one fan cut through the noise with a simple reality check: “He’s a professional quarterback, he better be back to work.”
Hurts has already proven his value. But if this offseason grind pays off, he might just silence the critics, and maybe even bring Philly another shot at the Lombardi.
Skip Bayless Hits Breaking Point Over Cowboys’ Struggles
The Dallas Cowboys’ “all in” promise from Jerry Jones has officially backfired – at least in the eyes of lifelong fan Skip Bayless. Watching divisional rivals like the Eagles and Washington Commanders shine on the big stage, Cowboys fans are beginning to face a harsh truth: America’s Team just can’t keep up with the NFC’s elite.
Bayless nailed his preseason prediction that the Eagles would soar to a Super Bowl win. “Howie Roseman… He won free agency, he won the draft, he had the greatest offseason that any GM has ever had and I finally gave up. I said, publicly, the Eagles are going to win the Super Bowl,” Bayless admitted.
But the true heartbreak came when Bayless, fed up with the Cowboys’ failures, donned an Eagles jersey, featuring none other than Hurts, a QB he’s admired but on a team he’s always despised. His frustration boiled down to one clear culprit: “It’s your fault, Jerry Jones. You made me do this.”
For Cowboys fans, Bayless’ surrender feels symbolic. Until Big D delivers on its “all in” promise, the Eagles’ shadow looms large, and Bayless’ painful jersey switch says it all.
