I'm not a Goff fan. I'm a Ram fan.
I am not trying to make him a Martyr. However, I believe in the big picture and McSnead are scapegoating Goff. They are gambling with OUR money to do so.
Goff struggled, but so did McVay. There we a ton of warts since the Chicago game in 2019. Chicago set the template as to how to beat McVays offense. I do not think McVay is capable of believing that him and his system, lack of adjustments and SOME losses were HIS fault.
That kind of personality is great for any business for a few years but ends of a disaster once the armor is dented.
Interesting post, no name.
First, what is meant by ‘OUR money’? I haven’t given Kroenke any money lately, that’s for sure. Lol.
Your 2nd paragraph is where we kinda differ. I agree that the ‘18 Chicago game first exposed the Ram O. But I think the problem mostly was Goff’s inability to execute the changed O McVay went to. IOW, McVay could counter with scheming but Goff couldn’t quite keep up. Still really couldn’t right through ‘20.
If I’m right, and Stafford is able to execute any game plan that even McVay can draw up, then that will be proof positive that it was a Goff problem. But if even Stafford can’t jumpstart this O, then that would indicate a McVay problem.
Similarly, if Goff thrives in Detroit then we can conclude that McVay didn’t know how to use his QB.
I think you know which way I’m leaning on this issue.
