I just did a blink, high level comparison of Matt Stafford's career stats with Jared Goff's. This is what stood out:

Stafford: Comp. % (62.6), TD% (4.5), Int. % (2.3), Rating (89.9)

Goff: Comp. % (63.4), TD% (4.4), Int. % (2.3), Rating (91.5)

These numbers are not different at all. Did the Rams really improve at the QB position? If so, what evidence supports that? Or is this, perhaps, a case of peoples' perception being different from true circumstance? Could the numbers be an illustration of this fact?

Considering what the Rams paid, I would have expected there to be a greater difference in the performance of the two players.

  He's not elite

  Upside? At 6 years Goff is what he is.

  The high price is due to Detroit taking on Goff's contract

RockRam129January 31, 2021 10:27AM

  Well said

  A better comparison would be to compare

  To be fair...

  Just watch a few Lions games... instead of relying on numbers

Atlantic Ram185January 31, 2021 10:52AM

  A few things really stand out

CeeZar180January 31, 2021 11:39AM

  That was Goff

  This is where you and I differ

Stafford9238January 31, 2021 03:18PM

  Also need to consider the distance of the throws
