It’s irrelevant but the great ones do that. He would be the spark that would make us a good team for a long time. But it doesn’t matter. We need to figure out how to be a good team for a long time with a different QB.
Using the word “fact” in the title and the quoted sentence in the post, displays a disconnect from reality in which there are no facts.He wouldn’t be the first qb to play in an average line.
We are unfairly downplaying his greatness each and every time we say he will get killed in this team. He would instantly be an upgrade over anyone, and make our drives more competitive. He wouldn’t be the first qb to play in an average line. Defenses already know what we are capable so that gives them an edge.
Anthony Lynn tried real hard and still couldn't kill the kid.Herbert would make the entire team better , there should be no question. Not just the offense. Stars like Herbert , give the team and orginization hope , the players around him HAVE to elevate their own play. The only question I have is if our coaching staff would have mismanaged him like they did Tua
DudeThe level of negativity from some of the members on this board is truly amazing. It's always doom and gloom. This is the first time in a long time I don't look forward to reading post on this forum
Please don’t bring up Tbaum. He sucked at player personnel and of course he’d say that after the fact so he could score another job and steal moneyWell I do wonder who wanted Tua and who wanted Herbert because there were soooo many reports that Dolphins REALLY liked Herbert and really investigated him as a prospect. I'm sure there were some Tua fans and Herbert fans but who had the final say? I'm getting it was Ross and Grier was just a "yes man". Although I can't blame them, I preferred Tua over Herbert but I also don't get paid millions or do this for a living.
I guess that T-Bum was right and we all laughed when he said he would draft Herbert over Tua.
Agree. I would have taken Tua, but I was very intrigued by Herbert. I'm glad he's doing well with the Chargers. But let's not forget LA's offensive line is ranked 7th by PFF, while Miami's is last.I really don't understand what's wrong with saying I like both QB's........some people think you have to love one and hate the other. I know that all comes from people taking sides while they were both in college. It's ok to praise one without having to hate on the other.
ok so we could have drafted rodges and wilson also, doesnt mean we need to cry about it. its a soft mentality to sit around and cry about crap you cant control. let it go. we have who we have, so no need to play the woulda coulda shoulda game.The fact is that we could have drafted him. You don’t see nearly as much talk about Joe Burrows because we couldn’t have drafted him. But Herbert, we passed on him for a injury prone QB that has a ton of ???. It shows how bad our front office is.
Where were they ranked when he won rookie of the year.Agree. I would have taken Tua, but I was very intrigued by Herbert. I'm glad he's doing well with the Chargers. But let's not forget LA's offensive line is ranked 7th by PFF, while Miami's is last.
Great pointAnthony Lynn tried real hard and still couldn't kill the kid.
Kid had the worst line in the league last year and still managed. So the whole "can't evaluate behind this line" is also bull.
We and myself included would have flamed on draft day. After we saw a season from both we would be calling Grier a genius and the chargers woild be going through what we areHerbert would look like marriota with our offense. No mike williams, no keenan allen, no austin ekeler, no offensive line. I'll have whatever ur smoking. I already said this in another thread, we would all be flaming grier for not taking the obvious pick in tua. There is nuance involved, you guys are so results oriented its insane.
