It is almost a cliche that big players come up big at the end of the season. The last three weeks, Jalen Hurts has had over 30 points each week. Think he smells playoffs? Yes, he did it again this week, with 36 points against the Bears. That makes him my fantasy player of the week yet again. It’s starting to get beautifully redundant.
Sure, Hurts had some mixed passing numbers today: 315 pass yards, but also 2 picks. On the other hand, he had rushing numbers most RB’s would love: 61 rushing yards and 3 td’s. Add in a 2 point conversion, and you have, as John Madden would have said, “BOOM!”
