I hope no one is falling for this Jared Goff mirage

[Marc Spector]

Goff's problem is that he folds like a chair once you knock him outta his pre snap reads and play script.

His ball IQ isnt high enough to know that are times it's better to MANAGE the game versus WINNING the game.

I like Mcvay alot but this tendency falls on him. Mcvay develops a culture where it's all about the big play and that the game is best won when the offense is on the field as much as possible (see all the punt fakes the rams have done this year).

Not saying hes wrong but for a young QB still finding his identity, that creates a side effect of developing a mind state of not trusting the D, locking eyes downfield, and not anticipating sacks (all aspects Brady is the GOAT at).

Second half of the Eagles game, the Rams tried to give Goff more check downs to avoid the pass rush but we had too big of a hole to climb out of and the special teams threw the game away.

Goff has the ability to be a Rivers-Level QB but his decision making is catastrophically bad at times. Gotta work on managing the game to make that leap.

I think I was pretty spot on here.

Detroit Goff has the benefit of a stellar O-line and great Backs in Jamaal Williams and Swifty. Detroit is pretty committed to a balanced attack on offense and that keeps Goff from having to carry the lions share of the O, something McVay asks his QBs to do way too often. LIons O Coordinator Ben Johnson will be getting HC nods this off season, best believe.

Theres also the element of Goff playing with house money. Lets face it, Detroit as a franchises has 0 expectations so the pressure of having to be perfect, like he was expected to be in LA, simply isnt there.

This fukking guy



Why is he banned this time?

 

[FaTaL]

He’s been better in Detroit then la

 

[who_better_than_me]

McVay stunted his growth and development by babying him. Dude couldn’t do routine presnap reads because McVay did it for him. McVay had him on training wheels his entire tenure. He’s still not a top qb but he’s making the bestprogress and development he’s ever made this late in his career

He is who he is, an NFC Pro Bowl QB. He's been one of the three best quarterbacks in the NFC this year...

 

[feelosofer]

One of my biggest knocks on Jared Goff is that he has the physical tools if an elite QB but he doesn't have really have high football IQ and as such McVay has to script everything around him based on the situation.

What Dan Campell and the front office has done was the thing I think the Lions have failed to do much of Matt Staffords tenure. On top of building a very good offensive line. They took running back seriously and its paid off. Also Campbell seems to trust Goff and I think it makes Goff a better QB. Of course Goff had some less than stellar games but I bet you he looks better next year as he still develops mentally.
