Arrowhead Pride on Justin Herbert
From the article
Justin Herbert has completed 59.4% of his passes for 937 yards, five touchdowns and seven interceptions while being sacked 17 times. Two big things: 1.) The offensive line has simply been abysmal... Herbert is getting hit at historic rates... 2.) After five weeks, I think it's simply safe to say that McDaniel's offense does not jive with Herbert or the personnel.
STACKED’s take
Herbert's 59.4% completion, 5 TDs, 7 INTs, 17 sacks reflect scheme mismatch and line collapse.
Justin Herbert has completed 59.4% of his passes for 937 yards, five touchdowns and seven interceptions while being sacked 17 times through five weeks. His struggles stem from two primary factors: the Chargers' offensive line has been abysmal and ranks among the worst in the league historically, with Herbert being the most-sacked quarterback in the NFL since 2020; and Mike McDaniel's offense does not align with Herbert's skill set or the team's personnel, appearing to force square pegs into round holes. Herbert looks like he's simply executing McDaniel's calls rather than running the offense with control, evidenced by blatant turnovers thrown directly to defenders.
