Come on now, those drops weren't on Goff. That throw to Reynolds for example was perfect. He was separating from the defender and led Reynolds and hit him on the hands in stride. That was perfect ball placement.
I noticed they did more play action passes in the 2nd half. Goff is usually better on the play fakes. There was miscommunication with routes and a lot of drops. I really didn't think the offense was over matched. I wonder if only playing one drive the entire preseason affected them?
I wonder if the people who were complaining about the coaching staff going to give them credit for making adjustments and having a much better second half?
Just want to make sure I clarify I do not think this is a top defense in the league for when @KL2 calls me out next year for saying I compared this defense to the 2000 Ravens.
I thought the defense looked better. They were consistently in the backfield but they really struggled to contain a mobile QB. I would like to see how this defense handles a non mobile QB.
I never compared him to Stafford you liar. You are using semantics and accusing me of semantics. I literally have compared him to other QBs in this league such as Cousins and Alex Smith. I have said they can win with Goff. That is in no way saying Goff and Stafford are the same. Provide the receipts liar.
Stafford said he would have played for the Lions if they declined to trade him. They were a 5 win team with Stafford. They probably have two more 5-6 win seasons and he walks as a free agent. I fail to see how that helps the rebuild.
