In the NFL...
A similar result would be good.
Remember, about 800 yards cane from Gurley so Goff has not shown to be a prolific downfield passer...hopefully this is the year it shows up.
He will be ranked in the middle of he pack until he throws/accounts for more than 4500 yards. I would hope he comfortably gets over 4000.
It's not fair to not count yards that came from Gurley and say that he's not shown to be a prolific downfield passer IMO.
All of Gurley's yards weren't on short throws. I recall several throws to Gurley that were 20+ yards downfield.
Also, every other QB that gets over 4500 yards has RBs they throw to too. We don't subtract those yards from their total.
