""It was one of those things that you continue to think about," Herbert said. He continued: "No one felt worse than I did after that game. And I think it's important to continue to move forward and realize that it's what happened. It would be crazy of me to deny the truth of what happened and to live in this reality where if I tried to block it out, I don't think that's doing any good.""
"When asked if he had learned anything about himself and if he had improved since the loss, Herbert quickly replied, "I sure hope so." "Those are games that, as hard as they are to watch, you got to learn from them," he said."
Ahead of a matchup with the Houston Texans, Justin Herbert said last season's playoff loss in Houston still lingers and continues to occupy his thoughts. He said no one felt worse after the game and that denying what happened would be unhelpful, stressing the need to move forward and learn from the experience. Herbert threw a career-high four interceptions in that playoff game after throwing a league-low three during the regular season, making him the first player to throw more picks in a playoff game than in the regular season. Coach Jim Harbaugh blamed the offensive line and called for better protection after Herbert was sacked four times.
