LA Chargers Justin Herbert has Been Red Hot But Can He Put Himself Into MVP Consideration?

Over the past 5 games there hasn’t been a quarterback better than Justin Herbert, but is there any way that he could win MVP even after starting slow? It might be tough for him to win it this year but the Chargers have the resources to give him the supporting cast to do it in 2025.

The hosts get into a great conversation about Herbert’s electric play and decide who would win rookie of the year between Ladd McConkey and Joe Alt. Both players have been exceptional, but Herbert might not still be playing without his new right tackle.

The guys also give their analysis on D.J. Chark not playing at all since his return to injured reserve, and if there is anything he still brings to the table.

  6. Put some respect on this man’s name.Broken multiple records. He carried the chargers franchise and Brandon Staley’s job on his back. #10 should’ve been MVP.

  9. Why am I the only person upset Gus wasn’t in the second half he was literally averaging 3-6 yards a run … which is what is needs to sustain a drive and control clock and tire out a defense with momentum 😠 jk was trash other than that big run idc

  10. So far, Herbert hasn't played well against the Ravens in his career.Maybe since their defense isn't quite as good as in the past, we have a better chance?We shall see?

  12. Look we are getting a "W" on Monday! What do our 3 losses have in common?
    Steelers = #1 in division 
    KC = #1 in division
    Arizona = #1 in division🤔
    Last time I checked, the Ravens weren't #1 in the division. Jim Harbaugh! 🫡 Let's go ⚡⚡⚡☝

  14. The Raven’s are 2nd against the run. Their pass defense sucks. We’ve gotta lean on Herbert’s arm Monday night. Let’s hope McConkey is healthy.

  18. We used game time for this Monday Night. They also offer payment plan. Wil be in attendance me sent the wifey. ⚡️⚡️⚡️GANG OR DONT BSNG⚡️⚡️⚡️

  21. Telesco made a bunch of layups over his career (Herbert, Slater, Derwin) but those guys just fell into his lap, and what would have happened if he were picking 5th instead of 6th? We’d probably have Tua now. It’s like someone who went 3 for 25 in a basketball game then hit a left handed buzzer beater from mid-court at the end of the game in the 2024 draft. Except for Keenan did he even have a day 2 guy make it to a 2nd contract? Ok, i guess he gave Pipkins an extension but that didn’t age well

  23. We must win this weekend and Herbert should put a better or comparable stat line than Lamar. This will make the MVP discussion viable. It will be hard to argue against what we will see on MNF, in front of the nation… And if he can make it vs Ravens, ATL and KC, then this put him in the frontline. But as far as I am concerned, Idgaf about MVP titles. Only Ws. Team, team, team!

  25. Justin and the Chargers are going to beat the Ravens. Josh Allen and the Bills, after beating the Chiefs last week, are going to slip up this week, thereby leaving Justin the inside track to the MVP race. Justin is going to keep the lead with the Chiefs being the only obstacle left. Justin and the Chargers beat the Chiefs. Justin goes on to win the MVP. Chargers lose in the first or second round of the playoffs. Everyone is calling for Roman’s head/resignation. Charger fans excited for next season with Harbaugh at the helm.

  26. Hey guys not that much love Tom but he should not be blamed for the poor coach sedición that where taken like not to play layers or,go on a forth and one on your on 20 yards just saying

  28. Thanks for doing the hard work and answering the tough questions guys! 🙏😇😇I know sleep😴💤 is at a premium, especially when you're a new parent. I promise: no more tough questions until at least next week! 😜

  29. He's like the 20th best quarterback in fantasy football, completed under 50% of his passes this last game. He's not even close to being close to being in the conversation.
