Propane because the Chargers will be a top 3 offense. With a threat at QB the running game will improve.
The low brow play caller is now running our show.

How will their running game improve??? He abandons the run when it's working at its best during the game.

Because when you have a ligit passer who covers the whole field the defense has to loosen up. All these things will answer themselves in a few months.

Me too. And I think your right. Late August/Early September he finally lands a deal.
I'm not sure anyone will be desperate for a used up old lumbering boot like Zeke. I think even desperate teams may grab someone young off a practice squad before they sign Zeke.

I kept think the Bengals made the most sense prior to the draft

I guess there goes the theories that Zeke was forced on the offense.

Well he had Dak who's a pretty decent passer, nothing special or elite, but he did atleast win his first playoff game earlier in his career.

I guess we can say Herbert is legit, but it makes you wonder why haven't he won a playoff game yet. I think he's a better pure passer than Dak, but win is it going to translate on the field?

With that said, I hope he can overcome the lack of football knowledge and play design that his new offensive coordinator has because KM will cost them football games.

Lombardi was a horrible OC, Herbert may lead the league this year, Zeke would be a awesome pass blocker.

So Herbert, as good as he is gets to use the crutch of having a bad offensive coordinator.... but Dak, who's NOT a better quarterback than Herbert, gets all the blame for not producing and advancing further when he plays under bad offensive coordinators????

Nahhhh.... we're not letting that one slide. According to the standard set around here for Dak, those are just excuses for Herbert. If there's a standard in place around here for one quarterback, that's going to stick for all quarterbacks. So Herbert, as talented as he is should have won a playoff game by now.

Amen. We get all the excuses in the world for quarterbacks like Herbert. Many here hold Dak to a different standard and I know why but i'm not allowed to say it here.

Most of Zekes rushes were from the pistol.

We all saw those A-B gap plays hundreds of times.

Put Zeke in the tail and get a real blocking TE.

Lead the league in yards? He was up near the top this year his red zone numbers were bad, they were 18th....I guess thats the OC there but here when we are bad at redzone its the QB... kinda like Herbert doesnt actually need to win to be good he is just good even when losing huge leads by turning the ball over? Oooh i forget it was the OC there.

Zeke will land somewhere due to someone’s else’s unfortunate injury.

Herbert had no OL, a injured WR Corp, and a OC who was predictable at best with slow developing plays. We'll see what happens this season. You didn't forget, just a Dak apologist.

Funny how Pollard was so much more productive hitting those same holes in 2022. Yet Zeke apologists continue to perpetuate this excuse.
No...he wasn;'t more productive in those holds. Maybe slightly.

You remember...don;t you? How tony had to showcase his speed to the edge? I mean that;s what everyone talked about all season. Now why did he have to "showcase his speed to the outside"...

when he SHOULD be busting it way up the field for REAL yards. If there was a real hole.

Lol well i know you can read so maybe your just a selective reader..I dont apologize for any player Dak played a horrible game in SF, those are the Facts.. just like its a fact all QB's play with injured players but only a selective few get the "Its not them its the other guy" just wondering what factual reason you have for being pretty much a hypocrite when it comes to Herbert vs Dak? Do you want to compare the weapons they had in the playoff loss? Hmm Lamb, and Shultz vs?

Yep. It is the same ol' story here. Dak will get pounded for failing in the playoffs. But Mr. All American Herbert will get every excuse under the sun as to why he can't even win one single playoff game.
