Yeahhhhhh nah I'm a +1 that Nope. This is knee-jerk BS. He's an elite passer from a physicality p.o.v, that much is true.
But until he wins against real-deal defenses, and shows he can win a big game, you can't anoint a CHARGERS QB over a literal MVP and Superbowl winning freak talent in Mahomes. And you especially can't do it just because he's having a nice game against -adjusts monocle- "the Bengals".
In case you needed reminding... because apparently you do... Herbert vs. "good" defenses this year: very poopy.
vs. DAL Wk2 - L 17-20
vs. BAL Wk6 - L 6-34
vs. NE Wk8 - L 24-27
vs. DEN Wk12 - L 13-28
These are literally the 4 most impressive defenses he's faced this year, and he lost to all of them. If you wanted to count the Watt-less and Minkah-Fitz-Less Steelers win that he almost blew multiple times... then yeah, sure...
Come back to us and state your case when he outright beats a good D OR wins an MVP OR wins a dang Superbowl in his 2nd season as a starter OR grows a sick moustache and mullet and wears a Top Gun flight jacket to a game and renames himself Gardner Minshew II because OTHERWISE we AREN'T INTERESTED.
