Justin Herbert - Bolts Franchise QB Official Discussion

[Lefty2SLO]

My problem with this take is that Herbert is not faintly close to the reason for not having a playoff win in 3 seasons.

Agree completely . . . . . . when assigning blame JH should be at the bottom of the list, and is the only reason we've had any success at all.

All I'm saying is that we should have an open mind to all options. And that giving Herbert the richest contract in NFL history may not be the best thing for the franchise moving forward, as strange as that sounds. Because to me it all hinges on year 4 - if it's another year of "Social Media QB," ie pretty throws but no signature wins, then I'm for moving on.

Because nobody is going to look back on the Watson and Murray deals (and now probably Lamar and Herbert) and say, "Wow, they really made a great choice there."

He’s not a Social Media QB. Stop being silly. There’s been signature wins but it’s a team sport ultimately. I rarely have to worry about Herbert holding us back like other positions on this team.

I never worry about Justin - I only worry he'll get hurt . . . . . .

Is there really that big of a rush to re-sign him?

There's a good chance this team doesn't make the playoffs this year. That would be year 4 with no signature wins under his belt. May help better shape perspective about whether we want to make that kind of commitment and if we do, might at least bring his price down a bit.

You gonna give the biggest contract in NFL history to a guy that hasnt even won a playoff game or come close to securing a division title? Madness. Look, he's talented but he's not untouchable. Let go of the notion that he HAS to be the guy until he absolutely grabs that mantle and says "I'm him."

Oh cut it out.

Yep. No 5th year option Murray.

Dont know dont care. Herbert will get signed. No doubt about it. What he gets is irrelevent to me at this point. Its gonna be a lot. 50-55 mil a year.
