Maybe their new look line will be amazing, but not too many o-lines gel perfectly right out of the gate.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Regarding Herbert, I just watched his entire 2020 highlight video and he's like a clone of Josh. Huge, accurate arm, extends plays with his legs, tough to bring down, etc. I think Josh is the better runner, but Herbert is very close to Josh in overall athleticism. Dang, there are some great young QBs in the AFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People just give him leeway cause of who he is. Even if that was some deep introspective crap it still doesn't make sense. If you see it what you believe is irrelevant. It's been seen..... logically makes 0 sense. Whether Kermit meant to say it the way he said is debatable. Arguing that the phrase itself makes no sense the way he said it makes no sense. Basically, unless someone believes something, no matter how obvious it may be to others, they won't see it. Conversely, even if something doesn't exist, if someone believes it exists they'll see it. One only has to look at the current state of the country to realize that this phrase has meaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is there to believe? Mahomes not feeling threatened is one thing, he has no reason the feel threatened by anyone. Not even recognizing the awesomeness of Justin Herbert is another thing entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Allen is my guy but I call a spade a spade You certainly have a point insofar as measurables are concerned. I knew he did well and greatly improved his draft stock but did not realize how close Herbert’s combine scores were to Allen’s. They are both great athletes and really quite comparable that way it would appear. Its also the case that Herbert’s athleticism, like Josh’s, translated really well to his on field play last year. Herbert’s spectacular first year was obviously better than Josh’s, though Allen was better than him last year. Herbert’s play also slackened off somewhat down the stretch, whereas if the Bills didn’t quite make it in 2020 it was not because of Allen who continued to be a main difference maker on the team viz the Colts game for example. With a year of tape on him you have to wonder whether defences will start to adjust/catch up. Given his great rookie year the bar has been set very high, perhap0s unreasonably so. Allen’s performance curve has continued to rise year over year since he entered the league and I don’t see where having lots more tape on him is going to make much of a difference in defending against him.

I totally agree. Can Herbert adjust to what teams will do in 2021. I still feel Josh is the better QB of course but people just assume that Josh is the better athlete when while it's close Herbert gets the slight nod at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me they are very close if comparing metrics. Josh did slightly better in agility drills and ball velocity. Herbert had a better vert, long jump and 40 time but again pretty close. They are almost clones. I do feel that Allen is a more dominating/intimidating presence on the football field but we will see how Herbert makes out this year.

Herbert is a slightly poorer Man's Josh Allen who's further developed coming into the league His arm strength is notch below Allen's , his speed a notch below , strength a notch below .. he just started like 50 games in Oregon I think he's going to be a good quarterback in the league.. I think he's just a little less talented than Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are similar in likeness but Allen has more raw physical talent ; arm strength, mobility etc but Herbert is not as physically gifted as Josh but he was a lot further along in the developmental process than Josh was coming out. Better coaching, going through his reads etc. I had a very high grade on Herbert coming out, but will he challenge Mahomes? Doubtful. Andy Reid is a brilliant HC, it’s no contest as far as who is the better coach between him and Staley. Herbert is great, I think he will be awesome, but Mahomes is just as good if not better. No way the Chargers beat out the Chiefs anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physically and IQ they are almost like clones. I would say that Josh is probality stronger though 31 minutes ago, LeGOATski said: I guess this is where the eye test comes in to break the tie... And though I said Herbert was slightly more athletic based on data my personal preference between the 2 players is Allen of course due to the mental and competive make up between the two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
