From the article

Herbert entered the season with a chance to finally break into the top 5 with a big season; instead, he's playing at a level that makes him the worst starting QB in the NFL. Tough to drop him all the way down with his history of regular season success, but he's playing at a level that nobody can consider him one of the league's top 10 QBs until he proves otherwise.
