From the episode

Jordan Love and Justin Herbert. I think the answer for both of them is yes. Absolutely... Justin Herbert's second year, he threw 5,000 yards. Like the answer for each of those guys is yes.

Herbert's 5,000-yard second year proves he can reach MVP-caliber heights.

The source includes Herbert among the 13 quarterbacks making $55 million annually and affirms that despite occasional frustration and volatility, 'the answer is definitively yes' that he could reach MVP-caliber seasons; the source cites his second-year 5,000-yard passing season as evidence of his capability.
