Justin Herbert Leads Chargers to Playoffs Despite Injury, Prepares for Texans

Justin Herbert has led the Chargers on a four-game win streak, securing a playoff berth despite playing with a surgically repaired non-throwing hand since November 30. The two-time Pro Bowler recorded a 132.8 passer rating against the Cowboys, throwing for 300 yards and three touchdowns in a 34-17 victory. Herbert, who has improved his completion percentage and yards-per-pass attempt, now prepares to face the Texans in a crucial AFC wild card rematch, with both teams jockeying for playoff positioning. Bold predictions suggest Herbert will perform well against the Texans defense in Week 17.
