The G Man 1,119 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Just now, jclee4 said: I got him as my starting QB with Winston as my backup. I gotta say I'm not sure what to do. I'm not confident in rolling out Goff tomorrow. I hate that feeling. Welp, it's the Sunday night game. So, good or bad you at least get to watch it unfold. I'm not, and I don't expect a great night for him. My concern is it could be bad. Like single digit bad. Just can't take the chance myself. Good luck to you though! Hope I'm wrong. Need him to get better/more consistent on the road to feel confident starting him more often moving forward. Just now, smeeze said: Rolling with Josh Allen over him. Yup, me too. Love his match up and the rushing aspect. Everything pointing to a big game for JA. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The G Man 1,119 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Just saw this, and it has me rethinking starting Goff today: DENZEL WARDDB, CLEVELAND BROWNS ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Browns CB Denzel Ward (hamstring) is not expected to play Sunday night against the Rams. Meanwhile the team is "optimistic" second-round rookie Greedy Williams (hamstring) will suit up. Even so, the Browns are still projected to be without SS Morgan Burnett (quad, questionable), FS Damarious Randall (concussion, out), OLB Christian Kirksey (chest, out) and Ward. Jared Goff is a QB2 with QB1 upside (despite his woeful road splits) given Cleveland's abundance of injuries on the defensive side of the ball Sunday night.

Exactly my thoughts. I couldn't believe how badly NFL analysts were criticizing him for all those penalties. The way I saw it is Garrett was milliseconds away from 10 sacks in 2 games lol. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dexter75 482 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) It’s not the defense I’m worried about, it’s how terribly Goff plays on the road. I mean, it’s like really bad.

LionKid90 426 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Decent showing today. Feel like a huge game could be coming up for him next week against Tampa Bay. They do seem much more pass oriented this season with Gurley less involved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Berko1se 167 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Goff on the road? Consider benching him. Goff at home? Start! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afl5013 420 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Goff actually looked pretty good last night. Only missed a handful of throws. His protection and WR drops on the other hand were a different story. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LionKid90 426 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Got a feeling he has a ceiling game this week. Feel like Rams want to get right and this will be a great game to do so. Tampa’s secondary is awful. Honestly thinking of starting him ahead of Dak this week. If he can’t get it going this week he is probably a safe drop in most leagues.

WVFalcon 68 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I'm starting him. I don't know if he'll go off but I think his floor is safe at least. My gut tells me that McVay and co. have something to prove this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smeeze 6,285 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Should be a big day for him. At home, against a bad pass defense, against a good offense who will probably put some points on the board. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionKid90 426 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 If he can’t put up a nice stat line this week, then he could be worth a drop. This game is set up for a big game by Goff. Feel like Rams want to prove some of the critics wrong, especially with how mediocre the offense has been the first few weeks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh yeah, he's gone for streamers if he doesn't show up this week. I'd be shocked if he doesn't get me 20+ though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dexter75 482 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I hate having to roster two QBs since we have so few bench spots but I had to grab Kyle Allen. Im reluctantly starting Goff over Allen but if Goff doesn't put up at least 20 points, and Allen has another nice game, he's riding my bench going forward. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tugginroot 983 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Can anybody pin something on why he's been so mediocre since December last year after his torrid 3/4 of last year's season? Gurley slowing down? League catching on? Goff playing over his head? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doesn't mean Goff is bad, doesn't mean McVay isn't an elite offensive mind. A lack of Gurley's threat in the passing game also takes away a top-notch dimension from the offense. This was all known when you drafted Goff. He's had 2 road games so far this season, he really hasn't been much worse than expectation and his draft position. But if he looks bad this weekend it'd be a very different story, this should be a big outing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
