If anyone had to pick the putrid quarterback on Monday Night Football between the Los Angeles Chargers and New York Jets, smart money would say Zach Wilson.
Try Justin Herbert.
The Chargers’ signal caller went 16-of-30 for 136 yards and a 65.4 passer rating. In fact, Wilson “outplayed” Herbert going 33-of-49 for 263 yards and an 80.6 rating.
However, the Chargers were able to keep the Jets out of the end zone, and it was reflected in the 27-6 final.
Twitter was quick to fire off opinions surrounding the horrendous offensive performance. Here are some of the best tweets to emerge from the Monday nighter.
Does saleh know his offense is literally the problem every single week? I really want to know how he handles Hackett and the offense behind doors. Does he rip them every week at practice or does he just continue to let them do their thing without fixing anything? https://t.co/Hvc6sLVCQM

Darrelle Revis, while being recognized at halftime, said that being back at MetLife brought back so many great memories, and that he’s also reminded of all the, “Legendary matchups (vs. wideouts), and I shut them all down.”#Jets pic.twitter.com/W8LGfN38FB

How can ANYONE be successful behind this historically bad offensive line? #TakeFlight

Lazard would’ve been better off left inactive tonight #TakeFlight

The Chargers have the most pathetic offense in the NFL. Austin Ekeler looks like a state trooper. Just a mediocre athlete. Justin Herbert was never that guy

The charges really went from Drew Brees-Phillip Rivers-Justin Herbert and got like 2 playoff wins to show for it.

The most frustrating part of all this. Just get average QB play and you have a chance. Too much to ask apparently. https://t.co/KsWop2b7DF
— Rich Rozefort (@subzero2401) November 7, 2023
The #Jets have not scored a TD where a drive started in their own end of the field since Breece Hall’s run in Denver.
They haven’t had a multi-play touchdown drive since the KC game.
Calls for them being “close” sound incredibly hollow with those numbers.

Why is Aaron Rodgers rushing to get back behind this Jets O-line? Starting to feel like he might just be a glutton for punishment.
— Sensibull (@mesportsburner) November 7, 2023
Herbert has 136 yards and we are down two scores and don’t know what a TD is lmao I legit would stop taking the field if I was the defense #jets

Chargers are going to win this game despite Justin Herbert throwing for only 136 yards with a passer rating of 65.4.
