Year one: Rookie in a historically bad offense. It doesn't wreck his confidence.
Year two: Learns a new offense and pilots it to the playoffs.
Year three: Games like the Vikings and Chiefs demonstrate his ceiling is much higher than the naysayers would ever credit. His persistence and adjustments in the Saints game was pure mental toughness.
Year four: A helpless defense against the Bucs forces Goff to become a gunslinger. He kept the team competitive in a bad scenario. With the whole offense in flux and an inconsistent defense, Jared never wilts.
Year five: Pundits return to early 2017 form. Sigh. And Kurt Warner forgot how to play QB behind bad lines in New York and Arizona. When Russ Grimm rebuilt the Cards OLine, the washed up QB suddenly became fitting of a gold jacket again.
Jared Goff improves his game every year. The results will vary based on his team's performance. I don't care a flying funk what knee jerk reactionaries have to say about him when they understand so little about the game itself.
I expect Jared Goff to be a Ram lifer and lead the team for over a dozen years, build on his already two Pro Bowls, and play in a few Super Bowls. So, no. There's no hot seat per se about this one game. On the other hand...he's an NFL Quarterback. His seat never cools.
Agreed Leo! Good post. I like Goff. He's not perfect, but who is? He can improve on some things like handling pressure and I am sure he will. I really don't understand why he doesn't get the respect he deserves. Sigh
IMO, we are lucky to have Goff after having soooo many bad QB's on our team. This is the first game during a pandemic making this a season that will be like none we have ever seen. No preseason, limited workouts, etc will most likely have an affect. Considering all that, to say he is on the "hot seat" in this game is just silly. Judge him after the season. Not just one game.
I'd like to see a list of QB's that people would rather have right now.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
