re: Is Hurts better than Dak

He didn’t drop that many passes.

He dropped a good many. Obviously, Jalen was a large part of the lack of WR production last season, but I am just saying, if Foster hadn't had as many drops as he did, he might have cleared twenty receptions.

Even if that were true, does it take away from the point?

No, not really, but Hurts seems like he is much improved from last season. That isn't a definite, because the sample size isn't that large, but the fact that he is able to let himself stay in the pocket and throw down field is a dramatic change from last season.

Dak didn’t have a Ridley or Cooper or Howard. Bama has had 5 receivers better than State’s best in the last 3 years. Similar story on the OL. Dak took that team to a NY6 bowl. Jalen isn’t taking a team like that to 10 wins.

All of that is true except the last part. 2018 Jalen would have a decent shot at getting 10 wins with that team. Not 2017 Jalen, though.
