I didn't. However, I don't feel being pushed across the goal line by a running back, tight end, and the biggest OL in the league constitutes a display of talent.
Then why doesn't Geno do it? Why doesn't every team do it if it's so easy?
Jalen Hurts is uniquely strong. That's why it's so effective.
Being able to score automatically from short yardage is an incredible ability.
Saying it's not is silly.

Only one team in the NFL has the biggest OL. You don't think Josh Allen or Justin Herbert are as strong as Hurts? Other teams have tried it and couldn't pull it off.

So you know nothing about the cap works? Got it
LOL. That's rich.
That's why you're here Matt, to teach us all about football and Seahawky stuff like the salary cap.
Thanks for your service.
I'll just keep posting my finger painting illustrations and maybe one day they will be intelligible.

No I do not think Josh Allen or Herbert have the leg strength Hurts has. I have watched the Bill's try the tush push. Didn't work.
It works for Philly because Hurts is uniquely strong. He squats over 600 pounds.

Can't teach the closed-minded and ignorant. But you clearly have it under control posting pictures of a snapshot in time that will drastically change in less than 3 weeks from now

Cool. DK squats 500+. Let's play him at guard next year.
You are saying there is nothing unique about Hurts. That's your argument. Except there is, he is uniquely strong and equipped to make the tush push work.
No one else in the league can do it like Hurts.
It makes him elite because he is the only one that is automatic at it every time. I wish we were so fortunate to have automatic short yard conversions every single time.

DK doesn’t squat 500lbs. I’d guess very few if any wr in the league squats that much.

Hurts is unique for how strong he is in that position. He’s rushed from 600-800 yards 4 straight years with double digit touchdowns all of those years too. We have to factor that into the equation. He’s not quite the runner Lamar is in the open field but he can do things running Lamar can’t do either.

Hurts is a good not great passer who can hurt you because of what his legs set up. Hes a special player running the football, add that up and you have a great QB who has won multiple big games including the SB. Hes much better than Geno at the moment imo.

People underestimate how valuable that is for that team. It’s a cheat code and no one else can do it. They lost their HOF center and nothing happened. Hurts is a freak in that regard

The tier list is fine. We just have to remember that QBs can jump up or down 2 levels per season. A cap hit list will always be anecdotal. It depends on how long a player has been with a team and how much the team chose to defer accounting for. It often bears little correlation to how good the player is or how much he is going to be paid. The $49M cap hit for Rodgers is conspicuous by its absence.
