Some folks are saying it, but as much as we can talk about Burrow being saddled by the Bengals organization, Herbert is playing for a franchise that is historically a non-factor and their only SB appearance was 27 years ago and is regarded less as their crowning moment and more in terms of "Well, the Steelers SHOULD have been in that SB!"  Oy, that's got to sting.

Other than the fact that they've beaten us twice in 2 years, I'm fine with Herbert and the Chargers being good.  We have a tendency to get sick of all the focus being on the Steelers and Patriots and so on, so the Chargers/Herbert being good is fine by me.  Do I recall correctly that Herbert was considered a risk or reach for the Chargers?  Other than being linked to Burrow via the draft class thing, I could see the appeal in a besmirched new QB trying to unseat the old guard.
