Oops! Why Tyrod Taylor didn’t play
This is embarrassing. Wonder if LAC gets a new doctor.

We've seen literally every young QB in the league make throws like Herbert made on Sunday. Have you ever watched a Sam Darnold highlight reel? He makes some absolutely Mahomes-esque throws at times. But then he flat out sucks at times too.
The simple fact is that it's one game. He wasn't horrible, he wasn't great. Statistically, most of these young QB's are going to hover somewhere between league average and outright failure. The success rate for true franchise QB's is just low. |

Thats a serious life threatening mistake.
Most of the ones I've been involved with were in the ER or ICU where the patient is looking a death if we don't do that procedure soon. If we have time we got to the X-Ray to make sure in the placement of the needle.

Herbert looked good last week, but with the patchwork defense the Chiefs trotted out to the field, that's not particularly hard to achieve for a top 10 drafted QB. Needless to say the jury is well and truly still out.

What are your complaints? Aside from one boneheaded pass, that after seeing from a different view, you at least SEE what he was thinking. Aside from that, what's your complaint? Because i gave you a list of things he did well, now tell me what he did that was so bad?

People continually do this with young QB’s. It happens every year. Just like Baker, I thought Herbert was going to be a bust based on tape, and I still do. When Baker had his “great” rookie season and 75% of CP was sucking his dick, I tried to tell them and they chalked it up to me being a hater. He looked good for a rookie making his first start, but it doesn’t change that for me. |

And again, he was poised until he basically threw the game away on a throw that every QB is told from the time they can walk not to make. I'm down on EVERY QB coming out. Why? Because 3/4 of them never pan out. That's just the way it is. I'm not going to crown any of them until they've proven something. |

What did he NOT display? No one's crowning his ass. We're saying after his first game, the arrow is pointed up. That could change of course, but there's really nothing to complain about from his first start.

You said he looks promising. I don't agree. I thought he looked like a typical rookie QB that the other team hadn't prepared for. Nothing more, nothing less. |

Just basing it off his 1 game though, the arrow is pointed up until he proves otherwise. There was a lot to like there. You haven't presented an argument yet that proves otherwise.

Give me reasons why he didn't have a strong showing.

Everybody gets all horny over young QB's when they make 2 or 3 good throws early in their career. And then it just never materializes beyond that. It's just simple math. |

The Chargers medical staff is a bigger threat to the Chargers' players and it's probably why they're all hurt all the time

This is what it boils down to, really. Same thing with Deshaun Watson and Lamar Jackson. People just want to be right about their college evaluations.

Herbert’s college tape is FULL of reasons to be skeptical.
Maybe that’s why some people aren’t going to overreact to one game? |
