Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has been quite the popular guy lately.
Coming off a spectacular 37-10 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday Night Football, Herbert spent the weekend going to a Dodgers World Series Game and a Lakers game with girlfriend Madison Beer.
Even major sports pages were poking fun at Herbert’s success, with Barstool Sports posting a photo of Herbert blocking a basketball from hitting Beer during the Lakers game and captioning it, “Oooo look at me I’m Justin Herbert. I make millions playing QB & just saved my smoke show girlfriend from a basketball. Whatever man.”
Now preparing for a matchup against the Tennessee Titans, it looks like Herbert has another big fan in Titans’ defensive tackle T’Vondre Sweat, who gave a hilarious reason why he’s the perfect quarterback.
T’Vondre Sweat’s Hilarious Reason Why Justin Herbert is the Perfect Quarterback

Buck Reising of AtoZSports posted a clip on X of Sweat’s analysis of what makes Herbert the perfect QB, and it’s sure to make Sweat a Chargers’ fan-favorite.
“He’s a fast guy. He is like your perfect quarterback,” Sweat said. “Tall white guy, fast, and can throw right, I mean everybody knows that.”
“No notes,” Reising added to his caption.
It’s the type of response from an opposing player that’s sure to make Herbert smile. And Sweat isn’t lying either.
Through Week 8, Herbert is among the league’s best quarterbacks:
- No. 1 in passing yards
- No. 2 in passes completed
- No. 3 in passing touchdowns
- 9th-best QBR
- 3rd-ranked according to PFF
And he’s doing that behind a banged-up offensive line that has given up the most blitzes (112), pressures (148), and fourth-most sacks (22) in the NFL.
Looks like Sweat’s analysis of Herbert isn’t far off.
Chargers’ Long-List of Injuries Ahead of Titans Matchup
Switching from Herbert to the upcoming matchup against the Titans, the Chargers are dealing with a ton of injuries.
Four players did not practice on Thursday, including Cam Hart (illness), Hassan Haskins (hamstring), Tony Jefferson (hamstring), and Tarheeb Still (knee).
And when it comes to players who were limited in practice, the Chargers had a staggering eight players on that list, headlined by Mekhi Becton (knee), Austin Deculus (ankle), Ladd McConkey (calf), and Jamaree Salyer (knee), among others.
Yes, the Titans are 1-7, but they aren’t a team the Chargers should overlook. Especially when Los Angeles is dealing with all these injuries.
If the Chargers can leave Tennessee with a win, that’ll dramatically help their chances of reaching the postseason, and they’ll be relying on Mr. Perfect QB to deliver another stunning outing against a team that’s desperate for another win.
