<title>Worse than Goff</title>
<description> Since it's manic Monday, why not bring up Goff? In 2020, Goff's last quarter of the year was dreadful. He barely threw more TD's than INT's and he posted an 84.0 rating. A change was made and rightfully so. A championship caliber team cannot be saddled with that kind of inefficiency.

A year later, where are we at QB? The last 4 games, Stafford has actually been worse than Goff was, putting up an 83.8 rating. He is proving to be just as unreliable and costly to the Rams chances of success as Goff was. Which sucks, but even more than the QB problem, we now have to also consider the common denominator. Are these QB being put in a losing situation by the playcalling?</description><link>https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,925167,925167#msg-925167</link><lastBuildDate>Mon, 20 Apr 2026 05:03:10 -0400</lastBuildDate>

But, when you accumulate numbers isn't irrelevant. Stafford's last 8 games have been mediocre and his last 4 have been bad. That trend is concerning considering the playoffs are going to be tougher than any of the regular season games. An 8 game slide of his most recent games is not a good trend to have when it's do or die.]]></description>

<title>Re: Some Stats for You</title><link>https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,925167,925375#msg-925375</link><description><![CDATA[ Ah okay I see that you're saying. Yeah I can agree with the concern but taking out a small sample and comparing the two doesn't seem fair. It's a 18 game season and Stafford as a whole has been leaps and bounds better than Goff. Also a game like yesterday, we're not in position to win it with Goff imo. Last year Goff lost the niners game at home to Nick Mullins. If we lose in the divisional or worse than I'll chalk season one of Stafford as a waste, but we're not division champs today with Goff under center. Not unless his whole season looked like what he's been the last 4 games]]></description>

Do you mean turnovers in the last 4 games or all season? Because I believe Stafford only had 6 more picks than Goff. But more than double the touchdowns</div></blockquote>Comparing each of their last 4 regular season games as Rams. Stafford's decline is becoming alarming. His production has dropped and turnovers increased. That he is even in the same conversation as Goff at all is troubling. That he has actually put up a lower passer rating as the season has gotten to it's final stages is very disappointing.]]></description>

But Goff, when he was the focal point and the pressure was on him to produce, his game dropped dramatically. He had moments when he did come through, but by and large, like Stafford, they can't be counted on to not make mistakes. Stafford throws more TD's but turns it over more. Goff throws fewer TD's but turns it over less.]]></description>

<title>Why only discuss the last quarter ?</title><link>https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,925167,925353#msg-925353</link><description><![CDATA[ It's an 17 game season now. This post suggests that Stafford's worse is worst than Goff. Sure, not worth the healthy debate about that. But the other 13 games matter I'd assume ?<br /><br />I 100 percent agree that Mcvay puts QBs in bad situations too often. He and Stafford are a perfect match that way. Stafford doesn't see a window he doesn't like and McVay doesn't see a defense he doesn't think he can air it out on. And I think that ends up deadly or self defeating depending on how hot each of them are]]></description>

While those are good stats and a sobering comparison, the caveat is that Goff was doing them in meaningless games. His problems arose as the pressure did. He and Stafford both thrive under garbage time scenarios. <b>Both struggle when the games are meaningful.</b></div></blockquote><br />I'm not sure I see it that way. Goff struggled in random games like Miami and the Jets, two pitiful games. He also struggled against the 49ers when Kupp was dropping TDs.<br /><br />Goff has generally been at his best when his best was required. Look back to last season against the Packers or even with a broken thumb against Seattle in the playoffs. Look back to New Orleans on the road. In the SB he was stymied but there wasn't a ton there for him 3 of his key players were hurt and McVay was shell-shocked.<br /><br />Stafford on the other hand has a long history of not getting it done when games are meaningful. See playoff performances.. Until this season, Stafford had never beaten a team with a +5 winning differential. Goff has done it twice just this season and they have only won 3 games.<br /><br />I'm feeling like the Rams will beat the Cardinals as they are collapsing worse. If the Rams have to play the eagles, 49ers, or bucs in round 2, Stafford may fold against superior DLs.<br /><br />I see Stafford as more of a homerun hitter that can make wow plays and foul plays. Goff is more of a Steady Eddie that makes the plays that are there most of the time, but can't make miracle throws either.]]></description>
