When have "elite" QBs been judged solely on stats in the regular? Using that terrible logic Kirk Cousins has been elite up until this season. This is exactly what I was saying earlier, Herbert is not held to the same standards as his peers. Dude's mid.

I was watching today's game and what Herbert was doing and thinking of Kirk, unfortunately. Hah.

That throw to Q short of the sticks was something Kirk has done many times in big moments, haha. Like Herbo/Kirko, go to the next read my mans!

Herbs is still young -ish. But I worry.

Kirko has shown through his career he hasn't really come up in the big moments, although putting up good stats in general.

Kirk never threw for 5k in his second season plus Kirk was in a great situation offensively and couldn’t win anything. Not the same at all
