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.
