1. Harbaugh and Hortiz passionately defended Justin Herbert when they were asked about the criticism of their quarterback in the aftermath of Saturday’s loss in Houston. Herbert threw a career-high four interceptions. Harbaugh called the criticism “completely unfair.”

To put it frankly, Los Angeles almost looked under-prepared for Houston in the wild-card matchup. Herbert finished the day with 242 passing yards, one touchdown, and four interceptions while throwing a 43.7% completion percentage. It was one of the worst playoff performances from a quarterback in the last decade.
