These two amazing quarterbacks are well-known for their skills. Jalen Hurts is the quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, while Patrick Mahomes is the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. First off, Jalen Hurts was drafted In 2020 and was drafted in the second round. Patrick Mahomes was drafted in 2017 and was drafted in the first round. There are some differences, but does being drafted before you mean you’re better than them? Well, we are here to find out who is better.
Here are some quick facts to know about the 2 players before we dive deep into this conversation. First, they grew up playing football. They loved the game and are now in the NFL, competing against each other to see who the better quarterback is.
Alright, let’s get started. Patrick Mahomes has been to the Super Bowl a lot this would be the 3rd time in a row the winner of the Super Bowl for the past 3 years. Jalen Hurts has been to the super bowl too. Jalen Hurts alongside RB Saquan Barkley. Patrick Mahomes is alongside a guy by the name of Travis Kelce which a lot of you probably have heard the name before. You know, the whole “Tayler Swift” thing! The two teams are very talented, but who will win?? Who will take the trophy home with them?? Will this be the third year in a row for the Chiefs?
Alright, I will now display some stats from the two.
Patrick Mahomes Regular Season Stats CMP% = 67.5 YDS = 3,928 TD = 26 INT = 11 Rating = 93.5
Jalen Hurts Regular Season Stats CMP% = 68.7 YDS = 2,903 TD = 18 INT = 5 Rating = 103.7
So from the stats this season, Jalen Hurts is leading in CMP%. But for yards, Patrick Mahomes dominated in this category. Same with TD. But Jalen Hurts has less INT than Mahomes. And finally, the one we have been waiting for. Jalen Hurts is Higher in Rating than Mahomes. And by a lot.
So throughout the Ratings and Stats this year, Jalen Hurts at the end one with the stats area. But what about skill?? Who has better skills? Jalen Hurts or Patrick Mahomes? One, Patrick Mahomes as I already said has been in the league longer than Hurts. But does this matter? Does being in the league matter that much? Does it make a big difference? Well, this is just the beginning for Jalen Hurts and the Eagles. The Eagles haven’t been to the Super Bowl since Super Bowl 52. The factors in making them go to the Super Bowl were a big deal. Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley are the two main factors for the Eagles and why they made it to the Super Bowl.
Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley? Or Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce?
I asked a couple of people who they thought was better.
Hutch Gerst: “Patrick Mahomes, because he has played longer.”
Dylan Grimm: “Patrick Mahomes, because he is just better.”
Jadon Bunting: “Jalen Hurts, because he is way better. Look at his stats!”
