    I can see them holding Herbert out for at least the next game. If he does play it's going to be 1-2-3 get rid of ball. Total game managed game.

      We will lose every game we are in without Herbert. Don't fool yourselves our back-ups are the worst in the league. JAX incase you have missed it have two best young book-ins ala Josh Allen and Trayvon Walker who will abuse Norton and rattle our back-ups all day. I hate it but Herbert CANT miss this week or we might just get left in the dust in this overly competitive AFC playoff picture.

        I know it's week 2 but this has the makings of a season already starting to slip away.

        Herbert injured, nobody knows how badly. How will it affect his throwing? Scrambling? Decision making?

        OL injuries piling up.

        Questionable play calling.

        KA with a nagging hammy.

          Eagerly awaiting a Schefter tweet. Fingers crossed for only bruised, but that's not what I expect.

              I worry that the fact we haven't had a confirmation of "simple bruised ribs" yet, doesn't bode well. Was he hospitalized overnight? Just feels bad at this point.

                  Herbert is a fucking soldier, but Staley needs to be wiser.

                  Love Staley but this is a strike against him.
                  How he handles Lombardi is potentially another.

                  What's Sean Peyton's number again?
                  I think Staley kept him in so Herbert could have this warrior moment on his resume.

                    Trayvon Walker has played one regular-season game, so I think that is a huge overstatement. Lombardi would have to adjust his play calling and utilize Sony Michel and Justin Kelley more.

                    The way Herbert had a clear path to pick up that first down and slide but chose instead to throw the ball away awkwardly has me concerned. His plays after that were on adrenaline, which is out of the picture now.

                    I'm not an expert on injuries, but I'm leaning toward sitting him until he's healed, which hopefully wouldn't last long. Obviously Herbert is a much better quarterback than Baker Mayfield, but I don't want us to handle Herbert the way the Browns did Baker last year. Yes, I know the injuries are different, but still...

                      Herbert isn't the kind of guy that needs his ego stroked. Antonio Brown Yes. Herbert No.

                          That's not a good enough reason.
