Jalen Hurts was ranked 9th by NFL execs, despite a Super Bowl MVP season. Here's why that ranking is disrespectful and flat-out wrong.

Philadelphia Eagles legend Terrell Owens called out Cam Newton for leaving Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts off his top 10 quarterback list, fueling a social media firestorm

Despite a year that saw Hurts hoist up the Lombardi Trophy and earn Super Bowl MVP, the quarterback barely cracked ESPN’s top 10. Instead, quarterbacks like Jared Goff (No. 8), Justin Herbert (No. 7), Matthew Stafford (No. 6), and Jayden Daniels (No. 5) were ranked above him.

In a recent ESPN poll of coaches, executives and scouts, Jalen Hurts was ranked as the NFL's ninth-best quarterback. It should go without saying that this result is so ridiculous that it calls the entire poll -- and the acumen of all those supposed football experts -- into question.

The ESPN survey listed the eight quarterbacks (in order) ahead of Hurts as the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen, Cincinnati Bengals’ Joe Burrow, Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson, Washington Commanders’ Jayden Daniels, Los Angeles Rams’ Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Chargers’ Justin Herbert and Detroit Lions’ Jared Goff.
