From the episode

He is making really bad decisions with the ball and turning the ball over a ton. The offensive line injuries continue to rear their ugly head. The pass catchers are not great. It's just really tough for a guy that in a vacuum you look at and say this guy looks like he was built in a lab to be an elite dynasty quarterback. And every single bit of that foundation is crumbling, really.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Herbert at QB16 after worst-case scenario season; poor play, not just supporting cast.

Ranked QB16 (tied with Tyler Shuck and Jackson Dart) after falling off the map entirely; the fit in Mike McDaniels' offense has not worked, and Herbert himself is playing quite badly with poor decision-making and excessive turnovers. The supporting cast is weak (Joe Alt no longer playing well, Lad McConkie not living up to first-year expectations, weak running back talent), but Herbert's own poor play is a significant factor. At 28 years old, the window to maximize his tools with better teammates and coaching is closing, and there's a real question about whether he'll ever be an NFL starter long-term.
