Cris Collinsworth Left Speechless by Justin Herbert’s Miraculous Touchdown Throw
On Sunday Night Football, Week 11, NBC Sports analysts Cris Collinsworth and Mike Tirico witnessed a remarkable display of quarterback prowess by Los Angeles Chargers’ Justin Herbert. During the Chargers’ 34-27 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, Herbert made a jaw-dropping touchdown throw to wide receiver Quentin Johnston, leaving Collinsworth in awe.
The Play That Left Collinsworth Speechless
With 11:09 remaining in the second quarter, Herbert rolled out of the pocket, dodging a sack from the Bengals. He then heaved a pass downfield with two feet off the ground, finding Johnston for a stunning touchdown. Collinsworth, calling the game from SoFi Stadium, couldn’t contain his admiration for Herbert’s incredible throw.
“They’re going to make a poster out of this throw,” Collinsworth exclaimed. “Watch Justin Herbert as he releases this ball. You’ve got to throw all the way across the field. Both feet off the ground. Beautiful stroke out there, and you can tell. He is just feeling it out here tonight. That has been simply sensational quarterback play. You won’t see better than that anywhere in the NFL.”
Herbert’s Exceptional Performance
Herbert, in his fifth NFL season, continues to impress with his exceptional skills. Selected by the Chargers with the sixth overall pick in the 2020 draft, the 6-foot-6 quarterback has become one of the most electrifying signal-callers in the game. Against the Bengals, Herbert posted two touchdowns and 297 yards, completing 17-of-36 pass attempts. He also led the team in rushing, recording 65 yards on five carries.
