Herbert seems like the guy to put up numbers but when when it comes to crunch time, he just can't get it done. I was checking out some splits the other night. I just looked up Herbert and he's a 80s to low 90s rated passer in the 4th quarter, 4th quarter with the game +/- 7 pts and last 2 minutes of the half. Guys like Mahomes and Burrow are elite in those times.
Lawrence won a natti in college and played possibly the worst half in playoff history before getting it together and pulling out the win in the 2nd half. Trevor's splits in those same scenarios are as bad to worse than Herbert, so i don't think he'll ever be a Mahomes/Burrow type either but he did perform in the playoffs at least.
Yeah, I would take Lawrence over Herbert from what we saw last year. Clutch play, that is where it matters the most and we saw some
of that from Lawrence last year and in the Playoff game against the Chiefs. They nearly beat them, it was a close game, almost as close
as ours in the AFCC.
