Campbell: Goff needs to 'step up' for 0-6 Lions

Niiice!

The 2019 Rams Oline lost their LG and C after their 18 SB run and dealt with a ton of injuries. They went from ranked 6 overall to 31.

Best did not play a full season in 2011 and pretty much never made it back. They did not use the pass to substitute the run game. That is not a good notion at all

Yep and with Stafford they are better, I specifically pointed to 2019 and 2020. I never mentioned 18.

Correct - Best was here for like 15 minutes. Beautiful 15 minutes, but 15 minutes is not long enough to create success for an offense.

As was pointed out. In 2019 they had a terrible Oline. In 18. Goff was solid and had better downfield stats than Stafford The 2018-19 Deep Ball Project (Part 3/3) – Brick Wall Blitz

Stafford was ranked 26th and Goff 8th

In 2020 things went sideways obviously with Goff and McVey. If you just want to blame Goff that’s fine,
but it seems like there was probably more going on.

Stafford is doing great so far but he has also enjoyed a healthy team and not a lot of great defenses so far

And what is it now? I feel like you re arguing against yourself here.

My take - Gurly goes down - everything collapses for Goff.
Insert Stafford, same players can run more efficiently as the pass helps to set up the run, and vice versa.

I’m not aware of the extent of WR injuries last year? Was that a factor? Truth somewhere in the middle? or nah, we can all pretend the world is black and white, and our guy is a hero, while the other guy sucks.

I demand you answer me! :joy:
Nah man, Im just trying to add some perspective to the histrionics here about Goff

LOL - Love that answer. Good to see people having a sense of humor and not taking things too seriously.
Sometimes hard to get a read on folks through text.

All in good fun

It’s pretty simple really. 2019 is the year things fell apart for Goff. The players were neither the same nor are they players Stafford has now

2020 Goff started strong but then McVey started changing the offense, and Goff wasn’t the best fit. I don’t blame McVey for wanting to replace a fifth year QB for a 12 year vet if every other piece is in place. If it were 2013 Stafford turnover machine and the Lions were right there, I’d want to trade for a solid vet for a SB run as well

You keep saying that but what I’m saying isn’t that hard to grasp. And I’m not ‘arguing with myself’ more like I’m arguing with brick walls :yum:

Let us not forget - Stafford is FAR more handsome than Goff. :wink:

IMO, there’s a big difference between Matt’s upside and Goff’s. Definitely depends on team circumstances, etc. Some things we will never know, especially in the case of apples and oranges comparisons.
