The Los Angeles Chargers are hitting a stride. In Week 14, they'll get one of their toughest challenges so far this season, though. It's an AFC West clash with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Justin Herbert has been playing clean, consistent football. Clearly, that hasn't gone unnoticed on social media, and Sunday Night Football on NBC felt they should chime in on one of his accomplishments this season via social media.
Herbert's interception streak
The Chargers star QB has not thrown an interception since September 15th. That's ten games in a row without throwing a pick for Herbert. He joins Derek Carr in 2018 and Tom Brady in 2010 as the only quarterbacks to reach that mark.
Of course, with their latest graphic, the SNF on NBC account has placed a potential jinx on him.
Chargers fans will appreciate the praise for their stud quarterback.
At the same time, they probably shudder at the thought that a jinx will come along with it, and he will almost assuredly throw an interception against Kansas City's strong pass defense.
No matter what – Herbert has been one of the best QBs in the NFL over the past two months. Los Angeles has been throwing the football more often, and he's been rewarding them.
With his success, Ladd McConkey has emerged as one of the best young wide receivers in football. Josh Palmer has been impressive as well, and Will Dissly is playing his best football of his pro career so far. All in all, the Chargers need Herbert to defy the odds and put this potential jinx in the rear view mirror.
If he does against the Chiefs, Los Angeles will have a great chance to get a victory in primetime this weekend. Jim Harbaugh will certainly be juiced up for the opportunity.
