Chips are down: Does Jalen Milroe have a path to emulate Jalen Hurts' success?

I don't expect Milroe to be drafted by a bad team desperate for a QB - he should be treated as project.
Jalen Hurts has demonstrated that he improved nearly every single year based on his tape. Is that asking too much from Milroe to sit back and whet his blade?

He missed his chance by not transferring for his final season of eligibility.

Hurts improved year over year. Mildew has regressed

So the answer to that is a no.

Even in the year where Hurts served as Tua's backup, he showed growth as a passer. Milroe has yet to show any growth in that area. He needs to consider a move to running back.

Absolutely not. Hurts got to where he is because between the ears he's tougher than old boot leather.

He needs a lot of development to get to the point that Hurts was at coming out of college, but anything is possible.

Not sure if it will happen or if it is even possible, but I will root for Milroe every time he steps on the field.

It’s impossible to say because nobody but Milroe truly knows what’s in his heart. Hurts is a winner by every measure and that is just how he is wired

The mathematical probability of players, skill set, coaching, scheme, organization, and talent all coming together to win a Super Bowl is astronomical. And we haven't even talked about how refs will screw you and take what you deserve.
There have been plenty of great, great players and coaches who never sniffed a Super Bowl.

He fumbles too much to do that.

If he would transfer to USC and play for Riley

He should’ve transferred and received proper coaching.
alabama fans were screaming for Hurts to get benched all throughout the 2017 season like they did for Milroe in 2023 and 2024.

No way. he'd be better off switching to tail back

If milroe ends up on a team where finishing 29th in regular season passing and 13th out of 14 teams in the playoffs gets you a super bowl W, maybe. Unfortunately for milroe most teams aren't like that.

1. He has not improved so the premise is inaccurate. Do you think he showed improvement as a QB against OU or Michigan?
Both games were lost solely due to insanely bad QB play.
2. He's not close to Hurts in anything related to QB play. Not even when Hurts left college for pro.
3. His "insane" measurables are overblown exaggerations. He's 6'1" 219 lbs with small hands. He fumbles A LOT and much of this is due to his tiny hands.
He will go to the combine, bomb the white board interviews and turn out a 4.55 average 40-yard dash.
He'll be selected in the middle of the third round as a
project "QB", multipurpose player.

I honestly think his only "good" fit is a plug and play backup qb to Hurts, maybe even 3rd string.
