Jalen Hurts had a phenomenal run in the 2024 season. He finished the 2024 regular season with 2903 passing yards, 18 touchdowns, 14 rushing touchdowns and 630 rushing yards. He had his best season as a passer after he finished 68.7 percent on pass completion rate. He helped the Philadelphia Eagles secure the second seed in the NFC with a 14-3 record in the conference. Hurts was criticized last season, in 2023, as he threw a career worst, 15 interceptions and was often trying to do too much from his end. However, this season, Hurts and the Eagles quietly beat all of the opposition to reach the Super Bowl once again. It is his second Super Bowl<\/a> appearance in three seasons and after taking a loss in the first Super Bowl, Hurts is certainly looking for vengeance this time around.<\/p>

Patrick Mahomes has had quite a run himself. He had 3928 passing yards, 26 touchdowns, 2 rushing touchdowns, and 307 rushing yards. While his numbers were down this season, the Chiefs were still the best team in the AFC finishing with a 15-2 record. At this point, it looks like individual awards are not a priority for Mahomes anymore. He may just be focused more on winning multiple Super Bowls before it’s all said and done. Mahomes and the Chiefs are now in their third-straight Super Bowl. They are looking forward to being the first team in the NFL <\/a>to three-peat.<\/p>
