What, Herbert since he came into the league 3 years ago?
- Most passing touchdowns by a rookie quarterback (31)
- Most total touchdowns by a rookie quarterback (36)
- Most 300-yard passing games by a rookie quarterback (8)
- Most completions by a rookie quarterback (396)
- Most games with at least 3 touchdown passes by a rookie (6)
- Most passing yards in a quarterback's first two seasons (9,350)
- First QB to reach 500+ completions before his 20th start
- Most total touchdowns in a quarterback's first two seasons (77)
- First quarterback to record 30 touchdown passes in each of his first two seasons.
- Most passing yards in a quarterback's first three NFL seasons, passing the likes of Luck, Manning, and Burrow.
Those were just a couple things he did in his three short years, and he put up those numbers with his primary targets missing 23 games and playing hobbled in several others. Also, as long as the Spanos clan is running that organization, and Staley is slapping a governor on the offense while flipping a coin to determine if the team should go for it regardless of the situation, the prognosis for winning is not the best.
Compare the first 3 years of Herbert's NFL career vs. Josh Allen’s most recent 3 years and Herbert has a higher completion percentage, more passing yards, he’s behind on TD’s (crushes Allen’s first 3-year total), has less picks, and is 2% behind in QBR but with a higher career average. There’s a reason good QB’s aren’t racing to play for that organization. They won't build it to win in the long haul and Herbert would be best served getting out after his rookie contract but he won't.
BTW, Stafford’s where he should be @ 18. Guy made it to the Superbowl with a roster that sold it’s soul for a championship and still more-than-likely wouldn’t have made it there if Jaquiski Tartt would have fielded Stafford’s 4th quarter punt pass that prompted Troy Aikman to comment on recent desperation throws by Matt Stafford. Stafford’s fairly washed.
