well, I'm not dampered by Goff's slow assimilation....

not at all. He's everything I thought I saw and the same tough kid that grew into a stud at college. imo
His head is swimming and he's playing so slowly right now. I'd have hoped for a faster learning curve for him but it will take more time
for things to slow down for him. When he knows where he's going with the ball, it's out when he sticks his foot at the top of his drop...
if he doesn't know...it just looks like...well? he doesn't know!! Which can look very disconcerting to fans.
Goff's feet and mindset are perfect...he will learn at his own pace. Rodgers, Farvre, many others had slow curves then when they became comfortable and themselves in the offense...they grew. UNLESS, we blow it up and start him on a brand new offense next year!...and then in 2yrs after that when the next HC is fired...he learns another offense, etc.
THAT is what stunts QBs growth...they rarely get stay in a system for very long and drill down and learn all aspects of it.
Honestly, if we had Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers...how would our offense be different?
What the balls would hit our WRs in the chest more? prolly.
Would we not hand off to #30 20-25x per game? Instead opting to throw 30x? nope.
Our offense is made to do what it does. We are a defensive-based team which leans on holding an opponent to few points and scoring just enough to win. We are NOT a passing juggernaut!! LOL
I think they will help Goff with some more familiar shotgun plays and he'll make big strides by mid-season.
My fav things bout this kid are his feet and un-Godly resilience in the pocket and to bad things happening.
He doesn't get rattled...I just don't see it. Goff stands in there, makes his throw and takes the hit....and is fearless.
That's always been his game and it won't change...it will just get better & better over this year.
