Goff shows as much awareness on the field as EJ, but no more. He was fed the answers to the test just before the mic clicked off. Now that defenses have adapted it's apparent that he doesn't have the skill to make it on his own. We disagree. We do. And can I just say the mic thing is the most overblown narrative in sports. I watched plenty of Rams games when they were rolling where they were not at the line super early every time
CommonCents Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 At the height of the Rams run Gurley was playing some of the best football I have ever seen a RB play. That is worth a mention. It still doesn’t excuse the lack of creativity from a guy who was so highly praised. He is average at best, I think he knows it.

If he isn't we get Ireland.

He couldn't get his pen out fast enough to sign that thing. Can't blame him though................... Yeah as soon as I saw that deal... the first thought that went through my head was ... "I've got some bad news for the Rams future" haha

dpberr Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 He's a bright coach but he needs to evolve. The Patriots punched him in the face in the Super Bowl and he didn't have a counter.
GimmeSomeProcess Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 League caught up and hasn’t adjusted. Great coaches adjust.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 One Year Wonder comes to mind

Not a one year wonder as he has at least 2 good seasons but i think Goff has been exposed as a QB that can't play once McVay isn't holding his hand. Goff looks terrible and McVay is partially at fault for not developing him properly.
H2o Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 McVay was Andre the Giant at one point, but the NFL has turned into Hulk Hogan
Fan in Chicago Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 10 hours ago, Reader said: Yeah, I think McVay is a good coach, but severely overrated during last year. I could be wrong, but my guess is Rams fans have really frustrating All 22's where play design works but Goff misses things. A good coach should be able to adjust strategies and game plans per the evolving roster. McVay has not shown an ability to adjust to anything. It is likely he is just a mind with a couple of bright ideas and limited ability to be flexible. I am surprised how ineffective a Wade Phillips coached Defense was last night. As good as Jackson was last night, the D just did not change throughout the game.
KD in CA Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 9 hours ago, Process said: League caught up to him. Still a good coach but can no longer work wonders with a garbage QB. $110mm guaranteed for Goff and two first round picks for a CB. Rams are a prime example of how to not build a team. They are screwed and will be bad for the next few years before they can finally move on from Goff and will start a total rebuild. Giving big contracts to guys like Goff and Wentz will set a franchise back for years. They are desperate to remain a SB caliber team for the opening of their $5b stadium. That’s what the mortgage-the-future strategy is about. I’m not sure if Gurley ever got back to 100% after his injury last year, but either way his OL fell apart and the offense cratered.
Royale with Cheese Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 I'm pretty shocked at how their offense looks now. I felt he was the new and young innovator going to take the league by storm....it certainly looked like that in the last two years.

He is the one for whom the jury remains out on in my opinion. The one the jury has returned a guilty verdict on is the boy wonder HC. The evidence is what’s happened in Green Bay where LaFleur is using a variation of the same scheme. Their offense has been snuffed out a few times this year, and that can’t be blamed on incompetent QB play. Against SF it certainly seemed like the 9ers D knew exactly what the play calls were. They shut down A Jones and then went after Rodgers relentlessly.
Billsatlastin2018 Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 Lombardi on Goff The problem? The Lead musician (Goff) can play only one song- a drop back QB. He’s getting tired of getting hit. Wants 5 Steamboats & check the Runners at First & Third.

There was a lot in common about Green Bay on SNF and the Rams on MNF in terms of their offensive ineptitude. 1
947 Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 The Rams also don't have a 1st round pick in either of the next 2 drafts. Good luck getting a new QB or elite OL. McVay will probably get 1 more season before being shown the door, but he'll be leaving that team in shambles.
TheFunPolice Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 Maybe Brady goes to the Rams next season
