And literally just hung up with Saguaro about this very topic
Goff is still very green.... he misses a lot. Watkins doesn’t know what hes doing ... he doesn’t. He admitted as much in that article from last week. The Rams right now are getting minimal production from their TEs. They too need time and seasoning
IMO the upside of this team is pretty scary. This QB, these WRs, these TEs aren't operating anywhere near where they will be when they actually really know whats going on!!!!
The Rams need more seasoning and even while we are on an incredible ride... its ok to point out areas where they can improve.
As long as we arent taking shots at a player we can point out when a TE drops a pass, or QB misses a throw, or 3 string RB runs out of bounds or doesn’t make a play (wink)
Compared to someone looking at still photos of selected plays, yes, he doubtless misses open receivers.
But does he miss a "lot"? He's not throwing a lot of ints, but that doesn't mean he regularly makes good decisions with the ball. Maybe he's too often hitting the first down throw while being oblivious to the open TD strike. McCoy already has earned a rep for his route schemes. Are there receivers running open on most plays that Goff is missing? Does he miss a lot for a young QB? His decision making will surely get better w/experience; it would be weird if it didn't. But how good is it now? These are largely questions that require comparisons to answer.
I appreciate B & G's time and effort in making the stills available and, when he does, I look at them myself. But, for the most part, I think they're of limited value in answering the questions that interest me most.
