Herbert has played 63 games as the starter and the record is 30 wins - 33 losses. In those 63 games, the Chargers have had 42 one-score games (over 100 since the Rivers era and most in the NFL). The Chargers have lost 23 of those one-score games since Herbert became starter (averaging 5 one-score games lost for the past 4 seasons). Herbert is 24-7 when the defense holds teams to under 25. In those 23 losses, the defense was on the field last for 15 games and couldn't stop the opponent from scoring. The Chargers have had a bottom 3-5 defense every year for the past 3 seasons. Bottom line is: the Chargers don't need to have an elite defense to win because Herbert has over 70% probability of leading the team to a victory as long as the defense is at least average and NOT bottom 5. Those 5 one-score games lost every year are 12-14 win ceilings.
I've been trying to tell people that for a while now. Tony Romo had the same problem in Dallas. People that don't understand how football works, blame the QB....
@@joffyjoffa If you factor in the games the defense was on the field last and couldn't get a stop, he had done his job and put them in position to win... Defense wins championships...
@@YDCFF_ RIGHT not not mention the great Peyton Manning took 6 years to win his first playoff game, Same can be said for Drew Bress at the beginning of his career. The kid goes has gone out and put up better seasons than Burrow and Allen MULTIPLE years and his TEAM still missed the playoffs because it's a TEAM sport not a QB sport. The kid has put up a better season than Mahomes, Hurtz, as well, His rookie year is better than C.J. strouds. Had the best first 3 seasons in the HISTORY OF THE ENTIRE SPORT and people claim he has to do EVEN MORE as opposed to what the other QBs have JUST TO WIN? It's a TEAM sport Burrow has been saved by his defense late in literally almost EVERYONE of his big games I can name them. Herbert has the worse defense and running game of ALL the top QBs. Maybe he should've started his career of with Andy Reid, or with and ELITE DEFENSE, COACHING and RUNNING GAME like Lamar Jackson and Brock Purdy have had FROM DAY 1 of their careers. 🤷🏾♂️
I know alot of fans complained about the hire but I've really enjoyed Greg's concise n matter of fact approach, he doesn't stroke the players egos and seems to be installing more of a balanced offense than the completely run heavy one fans expect.
A lot of people couldn’t admit that Lamar had a ton of limitations as a passer to start his career (which he makes up for in other ways). They blamed Greg Roman for the simplistic passing game, but he gave Lamar what he could handle. Roman even implied in this interview that Herbert is wayyyy more advanced as a passer (which is different than arm talent).
You don't just magic up a playoff spot. There is waaaaay more to a team than the coach and QB. Even with a relatively soft looking schedule, I'd be happy with 8-9 wins with this team. Then a playoff run next season after we have time to gel and time to fill the holes in the roster that are both obvious now, and the ones that will reveal themselves over the course of next season with our new system.
@@judgejudyandexecutioner.5223 Staley went 9-8 first yr with a weaker defense on paper. 8-9 is bogus. Our floor is 10-7. Ceiling is a SB run bc we have so many pro bowl veterans who can carry us with an actual football man at HC
@judgejudyandexecutioner.5223 But a QB(good or bad) will make or break any team. Just imagine if #15 was not the Chiefs QB? As great as Andy Reid is without Mahommes how many SB's would have? I am not say Harbaugh is anywhere like Reid but in the beginning with #7 the 49ers looked unstoppable.
Yes ✅ We can say goodbye to multiple losses by 3 points or less. We finally have strong coaches in HC, O, D and Special teams that know how to win. The 2010 Chargers had number one O and D but special teams were bottom dwellers. Not anymore. All systems go !!
Imagine if Herbert and the first team got those wrinkles worked out in the preseason…. Just one or two drives that’s it. Relaxed. Refreshed. Ready for the regular season.
If you put horns on Roman, he's definitely a cartoon devil, lol! On a serious note, wtf y'all keep acting like they don't wanna have a balanced offense, This is not just run the ball, no pass game its gotten to the point of stupid!
@@vicknewman9418 gotcha. In either case, this year feels WAAAY different, just from the new identity they’re trying to build. No more wunderkind coordinators being given the HC job.

This comment needs to be sent to all delusional Herbert doubters
@@TheGuym619Keep in mind they say he doesn't have 4th quarter game winning drives and he has 14 the most in the league since he became a pro in 2020.

"Sometimes the allusion of wanting to run the ball alot, is just as powerful as the ability to..."
Noted good Sir, noted.
Idk. Sounds like the mindset the ravens had when they lost to the chiefs.
@jordansaenz3 ravens counter in lamar to win that game which and he couldn't score more than 10 points
I know alot of fans complained about the hire but I've really enjoyed Greg's concise n matter of fact approach, he doesn't stroke the players egos and seems to be installing more of a balanced offense than the completely run heavy one fans expect.
This team is going to be so physical and I'm all for it

Seven of the Chargers losses last year were by three points or less. I think Harbaugh wins most of those.
The chargers are going to be just fine. Nothing happens over night. 🥳💯
There’s structure here and I love it.
So damn Stoked!! We will have a balanced attack for a change. The coaching staff that Harbaugh has put together is a great one. Go Chargers!!
In a couple of years, teams will cringe when they see the Chargers on their schedule and in the playoffs. Time and patience is needed
For 24 Herbert does not have any excuses. He was handicapped with Dunce Staley as HC. Now he has Roman and the Harbaugh so playoffs.

@@mikeparker6322 bc the league wasn’t used to RPOs. Once the defenses adjusted to Colin’s style, he became cheeks
@@EASportzzzz Then how will the league adjust Mahommes? Put 12 guys on defense?
If Herbert and Harbaugh can’t win a SB, the chargers will never win one.
They will tho
Have faith!🙏🙏⚡️⚡️⚡️
Thanks for your positive feedback
@@NigelBullocks always will. But we finally have a franchise QB with a man of men at HC.
I would be happy to just see them go to one.. but yeah, there is no excuse at all now, SB or bust
It's definitely a new era in the Chargers story that's for sure, BOLT UP ⚡⚡⚡
LETS BOLTKING GO⚡️⚡️⚡️
“Gets medieval … and we like that!”
Probably a true statement.
Chargers go 13-4 or 12-5 next season! Bolt tf up!!

Well one thing for sure is we won't be seeing with Harbaugh is going for it on a 4th and 3 2nd qtr at own 25 yrs line type of plays.
Roman's a great OC IF he has an extremely competent QB 1st. Accuracy is a must. Next ability to see all the reads... fast!🎉
The questions are becoming more and more thorough almost trying to expose the game plan and preparation
G Ro protect Herbert protect the ball and and move the ball . Bolts up ⚡⚡⚡⚡

After going on and on about Ladd haha

A better word instead of buying into the program would be committing.
LA 49ers!!!
Huh? Like a third of the team is directly from Baltimore.
@@marshallnmoonshineOC and HC has been with the 9ers
@@vicknewman9418 gotcha. In either case, this year feels WAAAY different, just from the new identity they’re trying to build.

If chargers don’t win the superbowl year, I’ll go bald
more trick plays please 😖😖
GO BOLTS f HATERS
How about Fking developing an offense around Justin. 3 idiot coordinators with the same results.
Pretty sure the last couple coordinators tried to do that but go off
Kellen Moore was hired exactly for that reason. How’s that work out?
Go away your drunk
greg roman is gonna be the first scapegoat
