Justin Herbert criticized as Chargers fall to 0-4 in NFL
Summary

Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers are now 0-4 after a recent loss in Seattle. While initially viewed as a top-10 quarterback, questions about Herbert's elite status have resurfaced due to his lack of playoff success and declining performance metrics. Analysts point out that Herbert has never won a playoff game and highlight parallels to Trevor Lawrence's career, suggesting that Herbert's standing as a top quarterback is increasingly in doubt. Further evaluations on his performance will continue as the season unfolds.
