The fact that Goff was ranked 8th best QB on NFL100 irritates a lot of people, fans and media alike.
That’s my favorite narrative right now. And it’s no more significant than any other narrative.
Bottom line here is what does Goff do this year. He’ll be better than last year. How much better is an unknown, but he’ll undoubtedly be better.
And there is a narrative out there saying he’ll regress. That’s what I call an absurd narrative.
I agree that Goff is poised to step up this year. There is a lot that influences perceptions of him, including the fact that the offense struggled at different times in the final 8 games starting with Detroit (just putting things in black n white...I know you personally know all this). He's setting himself up to be more solidly consistent all season long. The whole offense is doing that, really, including the coaches and McVay.
So the narrative ought to change, as you say.
