    Done with Herbert to allen comparisons

    He ****ing slides everytime hes 2-3 yds from the first down and every time, it costs his team. People keep talking about how hes just like allen, hes big, hes tough. Hes Drew Bledsoe with a little mobility.

    Sorry for the rant but im watching the raiders game and ive seen this all year, hell have an easy first down and slide if anyone is within a couple yds of him. Hes soft as ****

    Have to agree. I also hear he's not a vocal leader either. That's not what I want from my QB.

    Look at the effort Mahomes just put in on 4th down to get into the end zone. That's what I want.

      Herbert is reminding me of Martel from the replacements.

      he might have all world talent but man, he's just hollow. zero heart.
      My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

      MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

        Last play, herbert makes ZERO effort to get the ball down field for a TD, he's just padding his passing numbers taking underneath ****. dude that's just bull****. If i was a chargers fan i'd be livid.

          Similar talents. Total opposite people.

            Herbert doesn’t have nearly the same escapability and ability to make throws on the run that Josh does. His pocket awareness is poor, at times.

              I didn’t even know there was comparisons
              My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

                Herbert has tools, he really confuses me. He doesn’t win games. Feels like he’s heading towards Philip Rivers kind of career.

                  Another year, his third, and no playoffs. Pretty damning. And yeah, I always said that Josh is a violent runner, looking for contact. Herbert doesn't and while it might extend his career, it won't lead to on-field success.

                    He has a great arm and is one of the most accurate throwers.

                    Yet he is half the athlete Josh is and cannot escape the pocket that often when things break down. If he can't find his first read, he hesitates too long and then throws to RB Eckler every time. That's what I see after it was pointed out by the media covering the team. Makes it easier for the D. Habits that don't change.

                      Herbert's a stud, but Josh is a different dude, no other QB in the last 20 years gives up his body for the team like that, none, zero, not even close.

                        Josh is Superman

                        Herbert is Clark Kent

                          Herbert is held back by a tragic coaching staff. He isn't Allen, but he isn't a scrub. The only thing Staley has done in LA is find ways to lose them games.

                            I agree. Staley has been terrible.

                              Agree but you have to say Herbert plays a lot of great games that he in the end....just loses. I can't really put my finger on it because at times he is amazingly clutch. I still think Herbert is a top 5 QB talent but there is something missing.
