No, we shouldn’t have.
15-17.
We’ll see how this “promising“ season turns out for LAC, but I won’t be shocked if Herbert’s career turns out similarly to Philip Rivers and countless other empty stat guys.
For all his prototypical size and athleticism — he still isn’t the most accurate QB and gets rattled easily. I know a lot of people are in love with him, but he hasn’t convinced me of anything yet. Good player, for sure, but not the earth shattering talent the media and people like you suggest. Not to this point, anyway.
I still like Burrow and Tua better.
Well put! Herbie will be watching Tua and the fins in the playoffs from the comfort of his easy chair. That won’t stop him from putting up great numbers, gracing the cover of fantasy magazines, and video game ratings. I’m confident those are coming too. It’s reminiscent of my youth arguing Marino over Montana. Danny dwarfed Joe’s numbers by a country mile but looking back, I’d much rather have the Super Bowls.
