ZN you really trying to say Goff only had a bad year because his line sucked. Teams have to deal with injuries all the time and what is a solid oline to you? Top 10,16,20? Top QBs make the team better no matter how the line plays I mean these guys are all top level athletes not just some scrubs off the street. Put Mahomes, Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Wilson, Watson, on that Rams team last year and tell me they don't make the playoffs.
No teams do not have to deal with extensively injured OLs all the time. That's not the same as just "dealing with injuries." If you have multiple injuries to one unit it just compromises the unit. And it is just not that common for teams to have multiple OL injuries at the same time. When it does happen it brings the qb down with it. That's what happened to Bulger in 2007.
And of the qbs you listed, only 2 have been in that situation. And it caught up with both of them in the end,It's a blindspot for many fans. The OL is injured to the point where it is a wreck, but some fans act like that makes no difference. Well yeah it makes a difference.
