But they’ve made big moves in the right direction and have a young superstar in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-former-packer-sees-a-lot-of-aaron-rodgers-on-justin-herbert-20220520-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Justin Herbert</a> to try and change that once and for all.
Herbert is off to a historic start to his career. He’s already written his name in record books and has outplayed most young QBs through his first two years in the league. Now, he’s ready to take things a step further.
That’s why he doesn’t care about the fact that the Denver Broncos traded for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jeudy-points-out-the-most-impressive-thing-about-russell-wilson-20220630-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Russell Wilson</a> or the Las Vegas Raiders acquired Davante Adams. He knows he has to get through the best if he wants to make it to the top.
<h2>NFL News: Justin Herbert Embraces The Competition In His Division</h2>
“It’s tough, but I think it’s a great opportunity for us to go play the best,” Herbert told CBS Sports.“The Chiefs have gotten better, the Raiders have gotten better, and the Denver Broncos have gotten better — and that’s exactly what you want. We believe we can play really good football and it’s up to us to go out and execute.”
“At the end of the day, if you want to be the best you have to beat the best,” the young star added.“Those guys have certainly proved that over the past couple years. This is going to be a fun division to be a part of.”

<h2>The Chargers Will Be Better Next Season</h2>
Herbert and the Chargers will get another year under Brandon Staley and Joe Lombardi, and continuity can go a long way in the league. That’s why he’s confident that his team will be even better in 2022:
“The tough part about last year was we didn’t get a whole lot of reps,” Herbert said.“Walkthroughs were great, but there’s nothing like a live rep and going against a team. I thought it was great we were able to do that this year. We got to see a live defense. We got to see our guys on defense like J.C. Jackson move around and I thought it was a great opportunity for us to get better.”
The Chargers revamped their defense and kept their offense together. They have the potential to be a top-tier team in the league for years to come, especially with a blossoming talent who’s only going to get better.

His days at Oregon showed that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/patriots-coach-bill-belichick-gives-chargers-justin-herbert-the-ultimate-praise-20211026-0021.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Justin Herbert</a> could become something special. He was the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/rank-them-who-is-the-best-burrow-herbert-jackson-and-jones-20220222-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">most athletic QB</a> of his class, and some even thought he was the best gunslinger in a Draftthat also featured <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/baker-mayfield-wont-be-pleased-with-joe-burrows-take-on-deshaun-watson-trade-20220519-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Burrow.</a>
And, while Burrow already has a Super Bowl trip under his belt, it’s been Herbert that’s getting most of the praise in the early years of this rivalry. He’s already set records and looks like a superstar in the making.
But besides the obvious physical and athletic traits, Herbert’s mindset is what has him poised to become a legend of the game. At least, that’s what former Packer C Corey Linsley thinks of him, even comparing him to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/aaron-rodgers-finally-talks-about-the-davante-adams-trade-20220429-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a>.
<h2>NFL News: Former Packer Compares Justin Herbert To Aaron Rodgers</h2>
“Aaron has the same thing, that fire, perfectionist-type attitude,” Linsley told SiriusXM NFL Radio. “When Aaron was on, and he can’t be stopped, and you weren’t on, he was gonna let you know.Because he has that perfectionist, competitive fire inside of him. And that’s what Justin has.”
“He just has that inside of him where he’s just like, ‘I want to be the best, I want to be the best that I can be. I want my team to be the best and I’m not going to let anything stop me.’ He watches more film than I’ve ever seen, he’s in the weight room doing weighted pullups, just getting after it, man. I mean it’s 24/7, and that type of mindset speaks to the type of player he’s going to be,” Linsley concluded.

Well, you must be doing something right if someone compares you with one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. Herbert’s journey is just getting started, and there’s no reason to believe he can’t be as good, if not better than Rodgers once it’s all said and done.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-schedule-2021-22-find-here-the-complete-fixture-for-the-2021-22-season-20210908-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2021 NFL regular season</a> may have not begun well for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/new-england-patriots-t92316" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New England Patriots</a>, but they aren’t in a bad direction in the AFC East, where the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/miami-dolphins-t99238" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miami Dolphins</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/new-york-jets-t102085" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Jets</a> have been completely off.
Following a much-needed win last weekend against the Jets, the Patriots are getting ready for a tough challenge such as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/los-angeles-chargers-t102110" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Chargers</a> at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-stadiums-list-capacity-parking-spaces-and-rates-in-2021-20210815-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SoFi Stadium</a> on Sunday.
The hosts have certainly made a statement at the beginning of the season, which is why this will be a huge test for New England. And especially for the defense, who’ll have to deal with Justin Herbert, who has surprisingly drawn praise from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bill-belichick-t129210" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bill Belichick</a> this week.

<h2>Justin Herbert draws praise from Bill Belichick ahead of Chargers vs. Patriots</h2>
It’s quite unusual to hear Belichick heaping praise on other teams’ players. In fact, he has not even shared too many compliments for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/tom-brady-t75921" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tom Brady</a> a few <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/bill-belichick-may-have-taken-a-shot-at-tom-brady-offense-20210930-0004.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">weeks ago</a> despite theyhe built a dynasty together in Foxborough.
So his nice words for Justin Herbert were certainly a surprise.“He’s really good,” Belichick saidon Monday, as quoted by ProFootballTalk. “I thought he was outstanding (in college). He just really had everything you’re looking for. He’s very athletic. Good arm. A lot of poise. Played well in Oregon. Just a number of big plays. All the passes. All the throws, but extended plays, scrambles, could run the read-zone and all that.

<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-22"> </div>

“He’s as good a quarterback as I’ve seen come out here in quite a while, especially as it fits the pro game. I don’t think you’re going to find too many better than him. This guy is really an impressive player. I thought he was really good when we played them last year, and, luckily, we had a pretty good day, but I’m not counting on that again. I have a ton of respect for him. I think he’s going to be one of the top quarterbacks in the league for a long time to come.”
Herbert probably won’t get more flattered than this before Sunday. He mightbe constantly motivated by his own teammates and coaches, but drawing such praise from the opponents’ coach is not something that happens every day. Especially when we talk about Belichick, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/top-15-nfl-coaches-with-most-wins-20200807-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one of the greatest coaches of all time</a>, the leader of a dynasty, and someone who rarely compliments other rivals.
