""If you're going to get down to the 1, you might as well get in," said tight end Dallas Goedert, his smile widening. "Because otherwise, you know how we're going to get in." That would be by way of Jalen Hurts, churning in on a wave of momentum generated by his road-grading offensive line, a healthy dose of lower-body strength and, of course, a push of the tush."
"Allen already has the most rushing touchdowns by a QB in NFL history (77). Hurts, who was drafted two years after Allen in 2020, ranks third (63). What they're doing at their position is already historic. But what they're capable of achieving -- should their bodies cooperate and if the stars align -- would be truly epic. Based on their respective paces right now, Allen and Hurts have a chance to break Emmitt Smith's career rushing touchdown record of 164."
The Philadelphia Eagles rely on Jalen Hurts' goal-line power, aided by a dominant offensive line and pronounced lower-body strength, for short-yardage touchdowns. The Eagles face the Buffalo Bills in a marquee matchup that features Hurts and Josh Allen, two of the most prolific rushing quarterbacks in NFL history. Allen leads quarterbacks with 77 rushing touchdowns; Hurts ranks third with 63. Both players are on paces that could allow them to challenge Emmitt Smith's career rushing touchdown record of 164, potentially surpassing it early in the 2034 season. The career rushing touchdown leaderboard remains dominated by running backs, with Derrick Henry the lone active player inside the top 20.
