Goff, who before the 2019 season signed an extension that included a then-record $110 million in guarantees, isn’t sure when the tide turned against him.
“That’s the tough part right now is trying to figure that out, when did that happen?” he said. “Those are all conversations that I may or may not have, and try to figure it out. That’s the conversation to have.”
It feels like through Silver and now Farmer that Goff wants to paint this picture like he was blindsided. I'm not buying it because there are enough clues, some of them from Silver who has served as Goff's mouthpiece, that he was aware there were issues between he and McVay.
But the part that really stands out to me is how it's being framed that he didn't get to have a conversation about what happened to turn the tide and when. That would be cold if the Rams refused to talk to him.
Except that's not how it happened. He actually did have an opportunity to have that conversation but...."The conversation didn't last long," and that short conversation was Goff's choice. Here is what was already reported, by Goff's mouthpiece no less:
Quote
The conversation didn't last long.
When Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay phoned Jared Goff on Saturday night to tell the quarterback he was being traded to the Detroit Lions, Goff had barely uttered "OK" when he saw that his father, Jerry, was calling on the other line. As a man accustomed to making quick decisions in the heat of the moment, Goff didn't hesitate.
"I've gotta go," he told his soon-to-be-former boss, and clicked off to talk to his dad about the next chapter of his NFL career.https://www.nfl.com/news/silver-jared-goff-excited-to-be-with-lions-franchise-that-wants-appreciates-him
Me thinks that when your coach calls to tell you that you've been traded, if you really wanted to know why, and if you really had such a great relationship before that, and if you hadn't already covered it in your 4-hour conversation a few weeks prior, THAT CALL would be the moment to ask for an explanation. But Goff said, "I've gotta go" after 30 seconds.
That was his choice. You don't get to play the victim after that.
