On Sunday night, Jalen Hurts carried the weight of the world. He held it in his right hand as he walked to a spot in the locker room where he could lean against the wall, slide to the floor, stretch out his legs and place the Lombardi Trophy between them.

Orlovsky believes a Super Bowl win would only change the perception of Hurts, as his talent will never be up to par with some of his quarterback peers. Orlovsky then asked fellow ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith to rank Hurts, Burrow, Jackson and Allen. Smith said he would not take Hurts over any of the other three.

Jalen Hurts bucked decades of history just by getting back to the Super Bowl after losing his first trip there as a starting quarterback.
