The quarterbacks will earn plenty of attention on Sunday in Arizona. But their ability to survive an onslaught from the opposition will be crucial
he hype and intrigue swirling around quarterbacks Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes in Sunday’s Super Bowl is deserved. But the game may well be decided by which quarterback copes with the heat coming at him from the opposition. Both defenses have been great this season. Here’s how Hurts and Mahomes may fare against them.Roster construction is vital for all Super Bowl teams. Eagles GM Howie Roseman was nothing short of a wizard this past offseason.
As much as Brown has inspired the offense, linebacker Haason Reddick, signed on day one of free agency, has ignited the defensive front. Reddick alone is a force, but he is just one cog in a collective of elite pass rushers. Reddick, defensive ends Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham, along with tackle Javon Hargrave form the first quartet in NFL history to each amass double-digit sacks on the same team. This group pounces with coordinated attacks, wins one-on-one battles and is scarily explosive.
But if there’s any quarterback in the NFL that would stand on a mountaintop and scream: “Bring me your five-man blitzes!”, it’s the mercurial Mahomes, who can find receivers even when under severe pressure. There is, who can release the ball with precision from any angle in a nanosecond. But the Eagles have as strong an arsenal as Mahomes will face this season.
