Bold Prediction #4: Jalen Hurts wins games by himself

The New York Giants were able to shut down the Dallas Cowboys offense, well at least from a fantasy perspective. This week, don’t expect a repeat. The Giants are taking on Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles. They have the worst quarterback controversy in the history of the sport with Mike Glennon and Jake Fromm going for the starting job with Daniel Jones out for the season.

This is going to give a ton of opportunities to Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. The Giants have allowed more than 100 yards rushing to the quarterback position over the last four weeks. They did a good job of keeping Dak Prescott in a box, but Hurts is on a different level of athlete.

The Eagles are still fighting for a playoff spot and the Giants are just trying to avoid being an embarrassment this week. The Eagles will not help them in their journey, and the Eagles are actually going to do everything in their power to put a stake into the heart of the Giants season.

Hurts is going to rush for more than 50 yards this week, and he will have 2+ total touchdowns. He’s going to put up huge numbers, and he could be the reason your team is playing in the fantasy football championship.
