He looked good on the first drive, but didn’t do much after that.
Against a Chiefs team missing a couple DL and both starting cornerbacks, he only produced a TD (which was aided by a missed false start on 4th and 1) and 2 field goals through the rest of the game and OT.
Even for having several players out, the Chiefs defense didn’t play very well. A lot of missed tackles that extended drives.
Will he be good? Maybe. We definitely don’t have enough information to make a conclusion either way.
I didn’t see any real “wow” moments like Mahomes had in his first start. And yes, I’m comparing him to Mahomes. If Herbert is going to be their QB for a decade, then he’ll be compared to Mahomes every step of the way.
