Brutal but he absolutely nails it.

I'm still waiting for the so called experts like Todd Mcshay to admit they were wrong about Herbert when he had Jordan Love going to the Chargers at #6 and had Herbert going in the middle of the first round.

Cowherd isn't too high on Lynn...isn't too high on conservative play-calling either...sounds about right...

Lynn in a way reminds me of Shottenhiemer can call a decent to great game but for whatever reason insists on going conservative late in the game and that was Marty's downfall as HC and the reason he never went to a SB imo an it'll be the reason Lynn doesn't go. Of course I will give him one exception for the Marlon Mcree fumble who imo is the most hated former charger of all time. Atleast he's on my list as being the most hated Charger.

Yep...with Shottenheimer, it was when the Bolts would get a 7-point lead or so, then he'd go conservative somewhere in the 4th quarter with "Marty Ball." And we lost a lot of those games. With Lynn and Stitch, the play-calling in the first half is generally very good, a nice mix of running plays, short passes, screen passes and the long ball. Then, somewhere in the second half, for some inexplicable reason, the playcalling goes conservative, with a lot of 3-and-outs...then our D is on the field more, gets gassed, and to top it off, Gus is unwilling or unable to make adjustments to handle the opposing team's hurry-up offense...prescription for disaster...when are we going to hire a decent coaching staff?

Herbert and the Chargers: What a waste of talent.

[madcaplaughs]

I wanted Simmons too.

Really excited about Herbert. He's the real deal. If we get Turner and Bulaga back, I think we'll make a run for a wild card. If we get a left tackle in the next draft, I like our chances for a deep dive in the playoffs.

There...fixed it for 'ya!!!

The question should be. How is Herbert this good with the worst if not one of the worst offensive lines in football coupled with a non innovative coaching staff?

Los Angeles Chargers rookie Justin Herbert has stepped up in his first four NFL games, throwing for nearly 1200 yards and 10 total touchdowns on the year so far. While he hasn't yet achieved his first NFL win, Herbert has been very impressive on the stat sheet with very strong numbers in a number of categories.

Ranking among the top ten in quarterback ranking of all NFL quarterbacks, Herbert has been especially good when it counts. According to the Toronto Sun's John Kryk, Herbert has the best passer rating of NFL quarterbacks on 3rd down this season.

Herbert's 3rd down passer rating of 150.9 and completion percentage of 74% rank above Kansas City's Patrick Mahomes, Buffalo's Josh Allen and Pittsburgh's Ben Roethlisberger.
