Warner famously held the ball and was even praised for it. In New York that was a bad idea (24 sacks in 4 games). And then the idea that Goff never gets the ball off quickly is just plain incorrect. We've seen it. And yet now somehow you've arrived at the idea that he CAN'T? (!) This is my thing about balanced views. Discussions like this go to extremes and sometimes I sit there looking at them going "it is just not that simple, or cut and dried."
The point of bringing up Warner was simply that here's a qb we both know, who did change. It has nothing to do with any ideas you have about "case studies" or wherever it is you went with that. It's just an example I can count on us both remembering. That's one reason why when I see a negative with a player who also has positives, I don;t automatically assume the negatives are more real and are more likely to endure.
It's way to soon to be making some of the generalizations I see some people making. Truth? We have absolutely no idea if the Miami game was this big reveal or one bad game.

Did I say Goff never gets it off quickly? I don’t think so. My view is that he is up and down. Sometimes he gets it off quickly but often he he holds it and that lead to those strip sacks.
And I also said I don’t know yet for sure.
