Past the initial reads, it does not look like he is ever capable of improvising, and that honestly stretches to his pass-catchers. The plays look 'dead in the water' quick and then there's never a Plan B when it goes sideways.

Herbert struggling to improvise past initial reads; needs better alignment with McDaniel.

Herbert does not look like he's in control of the offense the way he has in years past; past initial reads, he does not appear capable of improvising, and the plays look 'dead in the water' quick with no Plan B when things go sideways. The source attributes this to a disconnect between what the team is comfortable running offensively and what McDaniel has been calling, suggesting Herbert needs increased meetings with offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel to get on the same page and restore offensive rhythm.
