Last year, things started great for the Eagles and then finished horribly. After the team’s third straight win, which moved the Eagles to 5-2 in 2024, I asked quarterback Jalen Hurts whether last year has been forgotten.
“Absolutely, absolutely,” he said. “I think that’s where we are, and I think my goal is to keep it where it is. We got a lot of opportunity in front of us. We got a new team, it’s a new year and we’re trying to build a new energy for ourselves and I think we’ve done that. And I think there are time where I’m not going to be naïve and tell you that I don’t look back and say I’m going to learn from this moment and maybe I felt this feeling once before, how do I navigate this?. And so that’s where we are and that’s where I am. It’s about being wise in our decision making and ultimately stand together as a football team.”
Does this mean that, while forgetting the outcome to 2023, the moments that fueled the adversity are remembered?…
