My initial thought on Hurts being benched was it's entirely possible Doug Pederson didn't want to risk an injury to Hurts in a game that ultimately meant nothing to the Eagles. I'm not sure how much sense that makes, maybe very little, but especially with the reported rift with Carson Wentz how ironic might it have been if Hurts had suffered a concerning injury going into the offseason where they are likely parting ways with Wentz. Either way, I don't really care that the Eagles pulled their QB, I think there's a lot of overreacting in the media and general fanbase over it. To be clear, questioning and criticizing the coach's decision is more than fair, the vitriol that's added in is where I think the overreaction resides.
