What is it exactly that your are disagreeing with?
That Goff's performance has been disappointing?
That he isn't ready to start and that Keenum is surely the better QB right now?
That I shouldn't be alarmed at the performance because of the list of legitimate issues you raise regarding Fisher not playing him more often with the starters?
Many of the issues you raise in your response I have raised previously as criticisms of Fisher's handling of Goff. However, what happened to Goff's great feet and sense of anticipation and his ability to escape? He has primarily faced 2's and 3's is it unreasonable for me to expect him to pass an eye ball test against that level of talent
Look I admit the Rams losing year after year could have me jaded but I don't think we should pretend or dismiss trends. Goff's performance has been underwhelming and some of it is due to the position that Fisher has put him in. On the other hand a lot of what we have seen from Goff is consistent with what we have heard from the camp reports.

Goff has never had the full starting oline in front of him as Keenum has.
He's never been out there with Kendricks and Britt as receivers.
He's never been out there with Gurley and very little with BC.
The Keenum/Goff comparison is not being made on an even basis.
Yes, Goff is still learning and isn't processing as fast as he will be.
Yes, he's made some mistakes.
But he can never get into a rhythm when every other pass is dropped or Williams and co. are letting defenders have free runs at his back.
I don't want to run down our starter just to make Goff look better but the fact is that last night when Keenum got pressure he didn't look any better than Goff has.
He threw one duck up under pressure and took a sack. Fortunately for him, his duck landed safely rather than having a defender near it, but it wasn't good.
IMO, the Rams haven't given Goff or us a chance to see yet what he would look like with a chance to settle in with the whole 1st team offense.
He's been asked to win the job from Keenum, by doing more with less. And predictably, it hasn't happened.
You and I disagree on this.
