Swanson: Justin Herbert vs. Playoffs – who you got?

EL SEGUNDO — Justin Herbert really needs a win.

Actually, maybe he doesn’t need a win. He’s talented, he takes home about $52 million a year – he’s tall. The man has a lot going for him already.

But for the sake of his résumé, his legacy, and all of our collective sanity, a first postseason feather in his cap Sunday would be great.

You’ve heard the allegations: Herbert has a big arm but he’s missing the clutch gene. That résumé is chock full of NFL records, but in the big games, he chokes.
