The "I Still Like Herbie" Bolts vs. Bucs Post-Game Thread

Currently, after the Bucks game, Herbert has a season QBR of 73.6, good for 12th best in the league.
The next best rookie is Burrow at 53.6 good for 24th best in the league.
Herbert is a full 20 QBR points ahead of Burrow.
73.6 is INSANE for a rookie.
Ok, its only 3 games, but still, Herbert has been playing really well, amazingly well for a rookie.

Originally posted by Topcat View PostEven though we lost, remember this is still a team with the GOAT, Tom Brady, and Gronk, no less, on the winning side. I was hoping for a win, but not really expecting one. The key momentum changer was that botched handoff from Herbie to Kelley, resulting in a fumble and then a Buc TD, right before the half. In spite of the loss, I still see a bright future for Justin Herbert. No WAY Tyrod throws those two TD bombs to Guyton and Johnson. Those two plays alone were things of beauty. Herbert also showed some very nice touch on several screen passes. His accuracy was amazingly pinpoint on the TD to Parham and that one sideline pass to KA. I see some very impressive improvement by Herbie. All the kid needs are more reps, more practice handing off, etc., and I think the wins will come. Keep the kid in the lineup, Lynn! Even with the rook miscues, he still gives us our best chance to win!
Herbert's play is very encouraging. There are some mistakes, but in game reps should help him to iron those out over time. Barring us having the golden ticket in next year's draft which is unlikely when the decayed remains of the Jets are still playing football, I cannot wait to see the finished Herbert. I always thought he was the best of this year's QB class, but I questioned if he was worth the 6th overall pick and based upon the early returns, it looks like there is a pretty good chance that I will end up being wrong about that. And, in that case, it is great to be wrong!

how many peoples (media folks/oddsmakers) had us favored in m/any of those games ?? recall a poster here calling me the "most optimistic fan ever" for suggesting a 20-15 win, as most anyone here had no expectation of a win against Mahomes, albeit now apparently AL is the unforgiven for not pulling the proverbial David outta the Goliath hat ??
yeah they were heartbreakers, and Xmas has come early w/the breakout play of Herbert, but don't think AL is responsible for what the some of you are referring to as the Titanic here.
we are completely in the mix w/two teams that are pretty darn good, and.... Burrow's offense ain't no pushover, and ditto for Joe Brady and Bridgewater.

To Lynn’s credit, he has yet to burry his head like an ostrich during a nationally televised game like McCoy did one color rush Thursday evening.P1. Block Destruction - Ogbonnia
P2. Shocking Effort - Eboigbe
P3. Ball Disruption - Ford
P4. Obnoxious Communication - Matlock

The 75 yard TD to Guyton was a vertical seem route. Jalen made an outstanding release at the LOS and then just pure speed.My 2021 Adopt-A-Bolt List
