I rewatched the Seahawks game and Goff did a lot of good stuff, a lot more good stuff than bad stuff.
What I liked seeing is they were clicking on third down. Looking at passes only, they converted 7 of 12 3rd downs, without a negative play (sack, fumble, INT) on any of them.
But it's the Seattle defense. I don't think they're quite as bad as their numbers indicate (I think they're picking it up after a bad start) but it's not a great defense either way.
Here's what I don't like. The Rams turn the ball over too much. It's mostly Goff turning it over, but even Woods gave up a fumble for a DTD against Chicago. You do that against good teams and you're gonna lose more often than not. Until they correct the turnover issue, all that good stuff, including the 3rd down conversions, will get washed out.
TB will bring the heat on Goff. Everyone knows it, especially him. Will he protect the ball? Will he process fast enough? It's anyones guess right now.
He went through spurts of that last year and it stopped for a while. Then it came back up again this year. If it stopped before it can stop again, is my thinking.
Another question is why does it come back?
It’s quite possible that this pattern of spurts is permanent.
And they have a winning season both times.
It's an issue and it's better if they don't have it.
But you know who else had long spurts of fumbling? Warner, right? In his last 4 starts in 2004 with the Giants, he was sacked 24 times and fumbled 6 times. So whatever the cause...guys can get over that.
