I’m referring to the ‘17 thru mid-‘18 Goff as opposed to the mid-‘18 thru ‘20 Goff.
It’s as if they were two different QB’s, really. It becomes a context thing, right?
Therefore, criticism of Goff’s recent processing speed, reading of D’s, willingness to throw deep, whispers of game prep shortcomings, etc seems entirely justified, if you ask me. And why McVay made the decision to move on to Stafford despite the high cost that entailed.
I’ve been at peace with the Stafford decision after thinking about it in the first 5 minutes.
Right!
This is why I don't understand when people bring up 2017/2018 without mentioning the huge bump in the road that happened in mid-2018. Maybe we don't know exactly what that bump in the road is but he has clearly not been the same QB since mid-2018.
We faced some tough defense where Goff, the scheme, or both were figured out and Goff's performance hasn't been the same since.
I don't think an unbiased person can ignore that there is seemingly some issue with either processing speed, reading of D’s, willingness to throw deep, etc. Something in this area is wrong and hasn't been corrected.
