A lot of people have been waiting for the bubble to burst and for Goff to fall on his face as it were. This hasn't materialized, so now we are hearing and reading desperate attempts to try and explain how he is still playing well. It's self interest because a lot of these people are people who get paid to know what they are talking about. They would be better off just keeping quiet and everyone would forget about it in a few years.
It's beautiful to witness people scrambling for any explanation they can find.
