...man alive, Goff has outright sucked much of this season. But if some of you truly believe this team is a QB away from the Superbowl I think you need to take a breath and re-think.
This is a team filled with possession receivers (very good ones mind you), an offensive line that buckles from the inside out on just about every pass attempt, a coach that has zero killer instinct and a predilection to pass on every down. The fact that this team, with the NFC title on the line and locking up the playoff spot, couldn't score a TD on 4 downs from the 1 yard line speaks volumes about the soft nature of the offense.
Anyone who thinks Darnold or Stafford alone can fix this is going to begging for yet another QB in 3 years.
We don't need a good offense. We just need an average one that isn't a liability. One that can score more than 20 against the Jets!
The various units have their weaknesses. The OL isn't perfect but it's not horrible either. It's been playing worse recently but earlier in the year, it looked very good. But guess what, the offense still couldn't score.
Our coach has his issues although you exaggerate them here. We have a very good run/pass ratio relative to the rest of the league so it's factually incorrect to say he likes to pass every down. I'll chalk that up to hyperbole.
IMO, the biggest issue is absolutely the QB. If we had just average to slightly above average play from that position, the offense would be in the middle of the pack which would be good enough to contend for a SB.
I'll say this, Seattle doesn't win the game last night if not for Russell Wilson. Great performance at the QB position can cover a lot of warts.
yeah and if our guy actually catches the pick six, he may have been the reason they lost too....but, our guy dropped the gift, their guy caught it......football is a funny game like that.
Love our defense, but ...two weeks in a row they left money on the table in crunch time....it's not the first time this year they have done that in crunch time when we needed a stop....like I said, love the way they are playing, but it just seems they haven't made the stops
when we most needed them to with the game on the line....of course this goes without saying our offense needs to be much better. first and goal at the one yesterday was pathetic ....
True R2k, but if the offense would hold up its end of the bargain, the D giving up 20 or 23 points would be fine. The issue is there is no margin for error because the offense is pretty pathetic right now, which is mind-boggling.
