There is no doubt in my mind that he will get better, at least good enough to be a decent starter in the NFL. But what none of us knows is will he be good enough to win big games in the clutch.

I remember Bill Walsh saying back when he first started coaching the Niners, in reference to Steve DeBerg, that DeBerg was just good enough to get you beat. DeBerg started for the Walsh in 1979, Montana's rookie year, and then again in 1980, when Walsh figured out that DeBerg was good enough to get you beat and switched to Montana.

So what is Goff? I don't know yet, but I am praying he's not in the DeBerg class.
