Justin Herbert Under Fire as Jim Harbaugh Demands He 'Be Better'
Jim Harbaugh called on Justin Herbert to "be better" after the Chargers ugly loss to the Bills, falling to 0-3.
The Los Angeles Chargers find themselves in a dire situation as head coach Jim Harbaugh demands quarterback Justin Herbert to improve his performance. The team remains winless through three weeks, suffering losses to the Cardinals and Raiders by double digits. Their most recent defeat came against the Bills, 24-16, despite forcing five turnovers, which should have been enough for a victory.
Herbert struggled to finish drives, settling for field goals while Buffalo staged a late comeback. Harbaugh emphasized the need for Herbert to enhance his decision-making, stating, "Be better. Be better." The quarterback, drafted sixth overall in 2020, initially showed promise, winning Rookie of the Year and topping the league in passing yards and touchdowns in his second season.
However, he has since struggled to recapture that form and hasn't led the Chargers past the first round of the playoffs. This current slump has raised questions about Herbert's future with the team, especially considering the challenging schedule ahead, which includes games against Seattle, Denver, Kansas City, Houston, and Baltimore.
