    Good call by Lynn.

    The Tyrod fans are going to be disappointed.

      WOW! Fantastic news! WE need a 16 game (or 15) sample size but a 102.2 QBR in his 1st year!

      ONLY 3 other QBs in the history of the NFL have done well (that's ALOT of QB's and ALOT of years.)
      Big Ben, Dan Marino, Cam Newt (98, 96 and 84 QBRs).

      Montana, Brees, Elway, Favre, Manning, Rivers, MAHOMES, BRADY (both technically started in year 2), Favre, Rogers (year 4) don't even come close to JUSTIN HERBERT in his 1st year statistically.

      What a God send!

        I wonder how much players like Bosa coming out and complimenting Herbert publicly played into it - if he has "buy in" from the vets, it's much easier to make a change regardless of what he previously said. Of course, if he wouldn't have proclaimed Taylor starter for life he would have avoided some drama and questions about his sanity.

            What makes you think that? TT said they'd bring him along slowly when they drafted him. Numbers proved NOT to be liars tho. TT brings in players. Coaches play em. Good call on Anthony Lynn's part.

              102.2 QBR for JH!

              While we do need a larger sample size (15 games), ONLY 3 other QBs in the history of the NFL have done well (that's ALOT of QB's and ALOT of years.)
              Big Ben, Dan Marino, Cam Newt (98, 96 and 84 QBRs).

                  People can put away their ice picks, chains and assorted objects of mayhem for awhile.

                  I'm sorry Taylor didn't get a chance.

                    Yes, I don’t think TT or John got involved.

                        Tyrod is Lynn's guy... Lynn did nothing but praise Tyrod the entire off season... Tyrod gave us our only win. Lynn has the justification to start Tyrod over Herbert, but he isn't... That leads my opinion to Telesco or Spanos jr. getting involved.

                          I am happy that Lynn finally came to his senses, but I think he mismanaged the situation, so the net result is a negative when it comes to evaluating Lynn's overall performance, which is sinking rapidly based upon this issue, his game mismanagement and the lack of recent success.

                          As I have said before, this is on track to be McCoy 2.0--two winning seasons with one playoff appearance and one playoff win followed by two losing seasons.

                          In another thread one poster attempted to distinguish by noting that one of Lynn's winning seasons had a better winning percentage, but that is irrelevant to me. The result in 2013 was the same as 2018--one wild card win followed by a divisional round loss.

                          Similarly, since each coach has already produced a 5-11 season, I will not care if this season is 4-12 or worse, 5-11, 6-10 or 7-9 even if that means that Lynn ends with a better winning percentage than McCoy. It is not the winning percentage, but the general direction of the team that matters--consecutive losing seasons. If someone wants to say that 7-9 is an improvement from last year, then so was 5-11 over 4-12 for McCoy. We are still talking about coaches who took winning teams and made them losing teams in two consecutive seasons.

                          And there is little doubt that Lynn had much more talent to work with than McCoy when Lynn took over.
