For this team it is not about their physical ability to play QB. They both do that excellently. But, Cincinnati needed Joe’s visible swagger, confidence, never give up attitude. Herbert is perfect for the Chargers who have other players to play that role. He would have done a great job playing but while still formidable, I don’t think his personality leads itself to putting an entire city on his back like Joe has. Joe has done something I would have thought impossible…he makes his teammates and the city BELIEVE
Great post Pally, so true. He has a way about him that not many QB's have. He already has been making other players in the
NFL take notice and players like DJ Reader and Trey Hendrickson came here because of him. More will follow, our FA will improve
simply cause of Joe Burrow. Sure, we will have to pay out but he is the type of QB where a big FA might take a little less just for
that shot at a Lombardi. Players aren't stupid, they can see it. The attitude, the swagger, the desire to be perfect in everything he
does etc.
