There are only 5 QBs in NFL history who posted 10,000+ passing yards, 80+ passing TDs, and a 95+ passer rating over their second through fourth seasons in the NFL. They are: Kurt Warner, Russell Wilson, Carson Wentz, Dan Marino, and Jared Goff. I expect Patrick Mahomes (and maybe Deshaun Watson) to join the club next year. You know passing stats are inflated for all QBs. It took 20+ years from QB1 to QB2. Its going to take less than 3 years for #'s 4-8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, sure. Seems about right. My cherry-picked stats extrapolate to over 5200 passing yards, 35 passing TDs, 13 Ints, and a 98.2 PR in a season. Those are the sort of numbers that would land you a Pro Bowl selection, at minimum. But go off, pal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm noting that the people who don't understand that young QBs have down years before they hit their primes are doofuses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH - For a bold prediction thread, this is probably one of the more interesting ones. Goff did in fact have a down year. Most the time these are terrible 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go into the Kamariabthread and point out how bad that looks now and one of his next posts will be in another thread hyping some other saints player or passive aggressively insulting someone from your team. His posts are pure comedy. I don't think the Rams will regret his contract but next year will be a big year as you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue is that when I've watched him, I've never felt like he's going to be a top QB. Even in games where his numbers were good, I wasn't blown away. He strikes me as a guy who is good enough to ride with but will never be great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notion that Goff should be benched for Blake Bortles is effing insane. However, a discussion about whether or not Goff is the long-term answer at QB, or exactly how good or not good of a starter he is, is completely fair game.

Damn I'm sorry, I thought that was only reserved for amazing quarterbacks like Derek Carr, Andy Dalton, Alex Smith, Teddy Bridgewater, Jameis Winston, Eli Manning, Tyrod Taylor, Matthew Stafford, Nick Foles, Matt Schaub, Matt Cassel, David Garrard, Vince Young, Jay Cutler, Kerry Collins, Derek Anderson, Matt Hasselbeck, Jeff Garcia, and...oh! Jared Goff! Bulk yardage means nothing, and 13 interceptions isn't great. And again, that's the BEST stretch of games you picked. Look, I don't know how good Goff will ultimately be. But it's totally fair to think he's not what the numbers from the first half of '18 suggested he could be, and perhaps the Rams overpaid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm noting that the people who don't understand that young QBs have down years before they hit their primes are doofuses. Because the media and madden games have trained certain fans' brains to essentially become robots (aka believing every hot take they read), instead of actually trying to understand as to why a player has a down year after coming off a good one. 1 2 hours ago, jrry32 said: My issue with Dak has never been that he has had up and down play.

He strikes me as a guy who is good enough to ride with but will never be great. I have no dog in this fight, but I have always felt this same exact way about Dak. When he is on, he is really on! But when he is bad, he is really bad! And that puts an organization in a peculiar place. Don't get me wrong, Goff can be streaky in the same way at times, but addressing/fixing his mishaps seemed to be easier than Dak's is. And this is not meant as an attack against the Cowboys fans because, again, I don't care one way or the other. It's just my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
