- Justin Herbert flops in playoffs -- again.Herbert threw three interceptions in the 2024 regular season. He ended with four picks on Saturday. That statistic alone can explain the nightmarish outing Herbert endured, never finding much of a rhythm while leading an offense that asked him to throw 32 times and struggled to protect him for most of the night. His accuracy varied, with some on-target passes glancing off the hands of his intended receivers, with others narrowly missing. He entered a full meltdown in the second half, throwing three picks in Los Angeles' final four possessions. Herbert's lone highlight was a sharp pass to Ladd McConkey for an 86-yard catch-and-run score. The rest was forgettable, adding another rough game to his playoff record. It's certainly fair to question offensive coordinator Greg Roman's approach to this game, in which he called a total of just 16 runs in a game that was a one-score contest until the final minute of the third quarter. But for a quarterback of Herbert's stature, this showing was simply inexcusable -- and incredibly disappointing.
