The Jalen Hurts situation is a textbook example of Outcome Bias.
A superficial blood clot before the London game.
Doctors cleared him. He played.
Suddenly, everybody knows the Eagles should’ve never let him play.
Based on what…
Original diagnosis was not a guarantee that playing = worsening.
Doctors evaluated the risk. Made a decision.
Had Hurts played, recovered and never had another issue, nobody would care.
But because the outcome is what it is, people are treating the original decision as obviously wrong.
That’s Outcome Bias. It wasn’t wrong.
Bad result ≠ bad decision.
You judge decisions by the information available when they were made.
Not by information you only gained afterward.
Otherwise, every risk that works is smart.
And every risk that fails was stupid.
That’s not judgment. That’s hindsight.

Just spoke to Jalen Hurts’ agent, Nicole Lynn, who clarified that while Hurts was up until early Sunday morning getting evaluated at a hospital, he was able to sleep upon rejoining the team and the Eagles set aside a room for him at the stadium. Videos from the stadium show Hurts coming onto the field just before kickoff and he felt rested enough to play.
Why do you have 1.4k followers with idiot takes like this? Manning sucks and you want to draft him because “he’s still a Manning” fuck ass
Agreed. It’s a shame these well-known eagle fans have a platform right now spewing horse shit all because they have hindsight bias.
Eagles clear Hurts because you can still play with a superficial clot and activity is recommended anyway.
Cards just didn’t fall right afterward.

"The owner, the general manager, and whoever represents the medical staff ... that's the three people that should be [answering questions]."
Marcus Spears reacts to Jalen Hurts' season-ending diagnosis of several blood clots.
Hey everyone, the franchise player isn’t feeling well so let’s automatically give him a scan. Like what? It only makes logical sense to you because you’re a little fan boy. It doesn’t make sense in real life.
I guarantee Hurt’s wasn’t forced to play. He chose to
We’re obviously dealing with an information deficit here but based on what we’ve heard, here are my biggest questions:
- Why didn’t he receiver a scan at all ahead of the flight to London?
While I understand that you can’t scan every player for minor injuries, it feels like your franchise quarterback could be one worth bending the rules for.
- Why was he allowed to play once the team learned that it was a superficial blood clot and that he was mandated to stay awake for 36 hours?
This all feels like organizational malpractice.
