Chargers around WWW.ESPN.COM He has always had the strength, but the third-year quarterback had to find another gear to help push a middling team to the playoffs for the first time in five years. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrw Moderator No. 2 Share Posted January 12, 2023 That's a great piece, thanks for posting it. All that incredible talent, so thoroughly suppressed by Cristobal. Given what the article lays out, it would seem that Herbert didn't really care that much, though; he just wanted the Ducks to win, regardless of his role in the process. He's the opposite of the "me first" athlete. 1 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywarduck Moderator No. 7 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Excellence with humility is something our qb's have had for a while. I can imagine one of the reasons Johnny Football thought about coming to Oregon, but decided to go elsewhere. He wouldn't have fit in. Nix fits in, Ty has a chance because he has some of the same traits. The new guy seems to have a bit of it. Time will tell who will keep the tradition going. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
