Might be the something that fires them up. Goff is lost. Bad throws, not seeing wide open guys, staring down receivers. He could not be worse today.

MichiganCardinal Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I’m not sure why people are acting like they expected Goff to be good. He is a 16-32 QB depending on the week, Stafford is a 5-16. Neither Goff nor Stafford would be leading this team to the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bring in a QB with the kind of question marks as Goff, should you have spent a little more effort on the #2 position? Or if Goff wasn't good was the fall back just the top pick?

Called timeout before the 4th down play because Baltimore was outta time outs. 1st mistake. The next mistake was playing a passive defense and allowing them to convert a 4th down and 19. Two huge coaching mistakes. Sorry, you can't change history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
