Herbert said he is just now learning to throw to a spot

He said under Mike McDaniel's offense, he is learning to throw to a spot where the receiver will be rather than trusting his arm to throw to an open guy.

He's just learning this? I remember Ben had to go through that evolution early in his career, but I assumed that after six seasons that would be the norm for Herbert. I assumed that it is the norm for all starting QBs. Apparently not.

 

Ben was talking about this in his latest podcast. He learned to trust his receivers would be there where he threw to. Specifically mentioning Hines and AB.

 

It is funny; Everyone is forgetting that Mike McDaniel was the Offensive Coordinator of the 49ers when they drafted Trey Lance.

Trey Lance was drafted in 2021 by Mike McDaniel, and then he left and became Miami's Head coach in 2022. Trey Lance fell apart after Mike McDaniel left.

It is going to be funny watching Trey Lance and Mike McDaniel do something this year, if Herbert goes down.
