Anyone remember the rumor that Hurney had a draft crush on Justin Herbert? 
 

Genuine question if we had either traded up or he had fallen one pick to us what would our current situation be right now?

Would Teddy still be starting?

I have to admit I don't know how good Herbert would look behind the offensive line we have.

Your probably right, I can’t imagine Teddy getting benched. Honestly the huddle would already have been calling Herbert a bust at this point. I even can’t even imagine the outrage if we took him last draft. That’s valid but the Chargers o-line is pretty horrible as well.

I tend to prefer that guys sit a year if it's possible.

Hell, Mahomes did.

Herbert sitting a year with Joe Brady would be lethal. Plus we could load up on the O-line in preparation for Herbert.

Heck man it's widely known that 92 year-old Hurndog traveled coast-to-coast right in the throes of a toilet-paper shortage in order to see Herbert...

...no rumor there, but rather a very well documented fact -- and whew, the pushback on Herbert from certain camps was curiously excessive and obviously turned out to be well off base.

The Chargers line is worse than ours

Chargers line is arguably worse than ours. They've been missing their starting center, right guard and right tackle for weeks and none of the backups are any good. Also, it's LA now...

      My read is they intended to try and get points but that first run and usage of the clock was done to hedge against things going poorly. Basically they shouldn't need all that time to score since they had multiple timeouts. Dirting that second play put us in a no-win situation. Sure you can run on 3rd down but ARI had timeouts so they still likely get the same result.

      Can we all admit it now?

      I never said he had a good game in the Denver game.  As you said we had a good first drive ending in Bryce throwing a slant to XL for a TD.  It was garbage time but the back shoulder throw to Coker for the late TD was a great throw.   Throws like these in bad games are why I say he "can" do it and has the physical tools.  The question is can he do it consistently, continue to improve, grow and become our QB of the future.  Up to this point that was a hard no but with a new head coach and Bryce in his 2nd year it was 100% the right call to play out the year and see if he got better.  He did.   Two games into this year is still more of the up and down quality of play and coaching but there is still plenty of potential and we have 16 more games to decide if it's worth it to continue down this path. I don't know what will happen but I know cutting him or benching him now makes zero sense on any level. I said of those last 10 games we were only blown out in 2 of them.  I'll concede the Denver game was a blow out.  So 3 blowout loses and 7 competitive games, 4 of which we won, all decided by less than a TD.  Sounds like a team growing, improving and getting better.  All I want to do is see where that leads and if those examples of starting NFL level quarterbacking can continue to improve and become more consistent.   Anyone with pride would retire?  Laughable.  Do all of you quit in your daily lives every time things get tough or don't go your way?
