Because why settle for one ring when you can build a dynasty?

Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts 'Straight to Work' + Spoke to Michael Jordan & Derek Jeter About Repeat
'I reached out to both MJ and Jeter,'
Hurts said.
'We texted. I wanted to understand what really separates good from elite — how to repeat, how to sustain success.'
He said they shared mindset tips and the mental grind it takes to keep winning when you're already at the top, something both legends mastered in their careers.
The internet is loving Hurts' mindset: "This is
Mamba Mentality
in action"
The reaction online? All respect. No trolling, no jokes just fans hyping up Hurts for seeking knowledge instead of just celebrating.
People are even calling it a "Mamba Mentality move" going out of your way to study greatness and master the mental game.
Jordan and Jeter know exactly what it takes to repeat and Hurts is listening
Let's put this in perspective. Jordan three-peated. Twice. Jeter? Five World Series titles and the undisputed captain of the Yankees. These guys didn't just win, they led, adapted, evolved, and dominated for
years

By reaching out to them, Hurts is basically trying to download their blueprint and apply it to the Eagles' future.
And the timing couldn't be better. After their Super Bowl run, the Eagles will be under the microscope. Can Hurts repeat? Can Philly become a dynasty?
This isn't just a flex, it's a mindset shift. Hurts wants rings, plural. He's asking questions, surrounding himself with greatness, and trying to make sure that this year's win isn't a one-hit wonder.
And when you've got Jordan and Jeter dropping knowledge in your texts? You're not playing checkers, you're building an empire.

People were disappointed, and most pundits stated that top players should deliver in big games. Mika Zibanejad's deal is big and goes several more years. It also has a no-move clause. That is, he cannot be traded unless he is willing to be. But from Pagnotta, teams can still call the Rangers and inquire.
