If Goff was checking down more in 2019 than in 2018 wouldn't you expect his completion percentage to go up?
It didn't. It was 64.9% in 2018 and 62.9% in 2019. Unless one thinks Goff is less accurate when he checks down than he is when he's throwing the ball downfield the idea that he checked down more in 2019 than in 2018 is hard for me to swallow.
Fwiw Goff took more 7 step drops in 2019 than any other qb.

“As the NFL has transitioned to more of a quick passing game by default, the seven-step drop is almost a thing of the past,” Farrar writes. “Jared Goff was the only quarterback in 2019 with more than 50 attempts on seven-step drops (68)”
