I don't get how people think it's the coach when so many looked at our team and saw an average to losing season. But McVay delivers 10+ wins with the 23rd ranked QB and he's somehow not a good coach? He has been working around poor production from his QB sin '18 and it's time to face that fact. This isn't a knee jerk reaction or overreaction to a loss. Goff has been one of the worst QB's in the league for the last 41 straight games regardless of how McVay has tried to help him.
Maybe Goff excels under a different coach and scheme? But I'd much rather risk that possibility than getting rid of McVay. I KNOW McVay is a good HC. I don't know that of Goff. Goff was terrible as a rookie in an age when rookies come in right away and have success. And don't tell me a QB couldn't have success under Fisher because Bradford even had 14TD/4INT and a 90+ rating before he got hurt. Goff has played more bad football than good since '16. He had the magical '17 and half of '18 but that was an exception and not a rule.
I think the chance of McVay coaching up another Cousins or Goff type is far better than Goff re-finding that year of magic. The chances of an elite level RB coming along and OL that has no injuries for a whole season is just too remote.
Funny how people want to point to his 23rd ranked QB rating during the regular season, but when he has the second best QBR in the divisional round behind only Rodgers they want to try to qualify it
When it was do or die, win or go home.....guess who was about the only dude who showed up on Saturday???
Funny how some can't wrap their heads around that fact
Kornhieser said it best today with this simple statement about the Goff/McVay issues when he said "Goff wasn't the Rams problem, Rodgers was..."
As someone else pointed out, because passer rating can be misleading when looking at 1 game. Rarely when looking at a whole season. Even more so when looking at 41 games. Goff's rating was fine against GB but his production, like most of his postseason games, was anemic.
I'd bet money that you are already aware of that and just playing the game of taking something literally to avoid the point. When one looks at the big picture, Goff has mostly disappeared during the playoffs. His shining moment was 1 quarter of football against the Saints. Kudos for coming through at that time but overall, he has produced very little and even worse than his pedestrian regular season numbers. That isn't opinion, it's just cold, hard, numbers.
We have the last 41 games to analyze and form an opinion. If one looks at it objectively and honestly, there's no denying that Goff has not even been average. I understand, it's hard to think that the guy who gave us all such huge hope after '17 & '18 couldn't still perform at that level but the numbers don't support him re-emerging and the circumstances don't provide an excuse. The main constant between the middle of '18 and now is Goff. He was not established or proven before McVay and even with McVay, he has played 2 1/2 years of poor football compare to the 1 1/2 years of magic.
