I like Barnett I really do. He made nice passes right on the money. I think he is def good enough to play for us.....
However, Hurts adds that dimension you absolutely cannot forget, his athleticism. His run up the middle was child's play along with his stroll into the corner of the end-zone. If you noticed his face, it was stone cold. The kid is just good and could be great. His throw to ridley on the sideline was so fast the camera couldn't even find it. And his frozen rope to Stewart was 55 yards with almost no arc. I don't know many kids who can do that.
Lastly he is a cool customer. The kid just plays and doesn't let crap bother him. I've heard from several people that he has a lot of respect from the team.

Just off of what he did Saturday should have garnered him major support/respect from the team. Not to mention the other stuff that has gone down.
I think one thing that's apparently lost is how quickly Bateman has disappeared from the discussion. That right there tells you what kind of talent and ability the coaches see in both Jalen and Blake.

If you're talking about the one for a first down early in the 2nd quarter where Hurts was rolling to his left, that's the one that sold me.
I was kicked back in the recliner. When he fired that rifle shot, I sat straight up and said "wow, I see what they mean now"
AJ McCarron will be a starting NFL quarterback very soon and he couldn't have made that throw like Hurts did.
