The Chargers had Herbert and a +5 turnover ratio and couldn't win.

How much do QBs matter again?

What are you even doing? Lawrence shook off a 4 INT first half and finished with 28 points while Herbert put up 7. QB's have always mattered.

this is legit the only football community that has members try to argue that QBs aren't important. definitely a special community

It is some special level of coping mechanism or Bad QB Stockholm Syndrome.

Can you imagine, one of these stained t-shirt, basement dwellers talking to an NFL GM and giving some speech on how the QB isn't important to winning in the NFL?

Not even Skip Bayless or Colin Cowturd could deliver that troll opinion with a straight face.

it’s especially weird in this case because Jax sank or swam on Lawrence’s back entirely, he had a bad first half and thus the team was bad, he went off in the second half thus the team was superb 

i get that this weird anti-QB crowd was standing giddily at the ready at the end of the second quarter last night and now the narrative has to be salvaged and framed in a different context, but nobody is falling for it

last night was such a thorough deconstruction of “QBs aren’t important” and that it happened with a number one overall pick having so much influence-and ultimately winning a playoff game for a persistently bad franchise-only rubs salt in the wound of this odd crowd that’s fighting so hard against really vanilla truths.

I don’t think it’s that. I think many of them want an average QB because of their belief on “the way the game should be played”

True enough, but the second half performance was due in in large part to Travis Etienne, some great offensive line play, some horrific defensive play, and some dumb mistakes by Joey Bosa.  

Herbert overall actually played better than Lawrence.  Just didn't get the good support from his team that Lawrence did.

      Good film breakdown of Young. Good and bad. Film examples

      By CRA · Posted

      Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.

      I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.

      Too bad it was all for nothing because his dumbass goalie can't stay on his feet or control the puck when it's right infront of him
