Simpler proof:

  1. Tua is not a franchise QB.
  2. Tua stole Jalen Hurt's job halfway through a game and forced Hurts out.
  3. Tua is therefore better than Hurts.
  4. Hurts is not a franchise QB.

 

Simpler proof:

1. Dwayne Haskins was not a franchise QB

2. Dwayne stole Burrow's starting job at Ohio State

3. Dwayne was better than Burrow

4. Burrow is not a franchise QB

This ignores the fact that Hurts has been a substantially better NFL QB than Tua

I mean, more generally, the transitive property doesn't work for NFL QBs. That's not a real proof of anything.

 

Jalen Hurts isn't a franchise QB since he doesn't throw the ball well enough to be one, but I think we all knew that when we opened the thread up honestly.

Substantially?

It's actually funny. Per-game totals almost unanimously favor Tua:

Passing Rushing
Rk Player From To Cmp Att Yds TD Int Sk Yds Att Yds TD
1 Jalen Hurts 2020 2022 11.6 19.7 143.5 0.7 0.4 1.3 6.9 7.1 39.6 0.5
2 Tua Tagovailoa 2020 2022 19.7 29.6 197.4 1.2 0.6 1.8 13.2 3.3 9.9 0.3

Whereas the advanced metrics unanimously favor Hurts:

    Passing Rushing Receiving
Rk Player From To AV G QBrec Cmp Att Cmp% Yds TD Rate Lng Int Sk Yds Y/A AY/A NY/A ANY/A Att Yds TD Y/A Lng Rec Yds TD Y/R Lng

2 Tua Tagovailoa 2020 2022 12 24 14-8-0 472 711 66.4 4737 28 89.5 65 15 43 316 6.7 6.50 5.86 5.71 80 237 6 3.0 23 0 0 0   0

I don't think either are franchise QB's, though.

I wonder how many of those that said "no" will stubbornly keep sticking with that opinion.

stubbornly? The Eagles just ran for 360 or so yards. I think Jalen Hurts is a poor man's Lamar Jackson, and I think neither of them at this point are franchise QB's who can win with their arms, especially if you pay them and have to make sacrifices elsewhere on the roster.
