Justin Herbert's biggest weakness is all of all 45 00:01:59,748 --> 00:02:06,028 Speaker 4: of those that he's counting on on offense, coaches, offensive line, playmakers, receivers, 46 00:02:06,348 --> 00:02:07,348 Speaker 4: running backs. 47 00:02:09,388 --> 00:02:10,428 Speaker 3: To get up to his level. 48 00:02:10,588 --> 00:02:12,868 Speaker 4: You know, that's that's that's I wake up every day 49 00:02:12,868 --> 00:02:14,348 Speaker 4: to try to get to his level.

Everything we're doing now, 75 00:03:25,108 --> 00:03:28,028 Speaker 4: we're doing for a second time. And uh, it's it's 76 00:03:28,068 --> 00:03:31,428 Speaker 4: clear and obvious that you know, all of us we 77 00:03:31,548 --> 00:03:33,788 Speaker 4: gotta we gotta, we gotta put the work in and 78 00:03:34,388 --> 00:03:35,188 Speaker 4: get on his level. 79 00:03:35,228 --> 00:03:37,188 Speaker 2: He's such a bright young man.
