Regardless of experience.
Not sliding in that situation (it was a first down play and he wasn't close to a first down) is mental gaff that a 5th yr QB shouldn't make.
And is precisely one of the many kinds of mistake that 5th year qbs regularly make...since there is no such thing as a 5th year qb who never makes mistakes. (I have no idea where that myth comes from.)
He was pressing. Goff does that when he is trying to make something happen in tough circumstances. Whether or not he ever tries to gain yards running in traffic without sliding again, he WILL press again, and it will lead to more mistakes.
Which just makes him another NFL qb.
