I know, I know . . . He's a rookie, and he has a Swiss Cheese line, no receivers, the coaches and staff are terrible, in general, lotsa people are injured, etc. etc. But, if I'm just zooming in on Goff, and no one else, I'm just not seeing him play within any pattern that matches up with all of that, with his context.
As in, he seems to "rise above" that rotten context now and then, or sink below it, or float along with it, and the opposing defense can be good or bad (happy or sad), rush him, not rush him, play deep, play close to the line, etc. etc. . . . and he seems to make great, good, average and rotten plays without rhyme or reason.
In short, I don't know what to make of him. As in, his play doesn't seem to sync up with game situations or the Rams' overall capabilities. Above it, with it, below it . . . As they say in New England, he's wicked unpredictable.
(Well, they probably never say that, really.)
One thing I am sure about: The kid MUST gain good weight, muscle up, and work all offseason doing this. He's a bean pole, and that makes him less effective as a passer, a runner and especially in absorbing hits. If the Rams don't get him a personal trainer, they're flat out stupid . . . and he should hire one on his own as well. Put a gym in his house and use it, daily. He can afford it.
Everyone on this board knows that Fisher and his offensive coaches are horrible yet you all expect Goff to be Jesus at the QB position and walk on water and just deliver touchdown passes and wins.
ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN with this coaching staff. This is a rookie and all he has had to coach him up is Jeff Fisher who is not an offensive coach and his pretend offensive coordinator and Chris Weinke and that is it.
HE IS A ROOKIE going from an up tempo offense to a prostyle offense and I FRANKLY think he's doing very well. He has tried to make plays and have WRs drop very catchable passes on him for no reason. My God, he had the team up 21-7 in the 4th quarter on Saturday and Greg Williams and his choke defense blew the lead again just like he did against Miami. This kid would have two wins under his belt right now if Greg Williams really was the defensive coordinator that all of you give him credit for.
Goff has been limited by the rotten coaching he has received with the Rams under Fisher and the jive-turkey offensive line who couldn't block you and me and 5 other guys from this board at random.
