Stats are all fun and great for sports talk debates. I’ll take playoff wins over career passing yards all day every day.

Goff has more of those than any Lions QB ever! (In the SB era of course)
Hmmm, I wonder where Goff ranks in career playoff wins for the Lions?

That bar is low (like really, really low)
Goff is a top 8 qb in the NFL.
Hes good enough to win the Superbowl.
“Oh he needs an elite oline”
What superbowl team doesn’t?
Mahomes? Yup. His rings he had top 5 oline. He lost the superbowl when his oline was bad.
(2023 it was an “above average line” over all, but number 1 in pass pro)
Eagles? Won with a top 5 OLine.
Seattle last year? Yup top 5 oline.
Rams? Top 5 oline.
Thats no secret at all.
I’m not saying I don’t like Goff. When he has a clean pocket, there may not be anybody in the game that’s a better pocket passer. However, when he’s bad, he’s epically bad as well. He’s still better than any Lions QB in my lifetime, and I’m not a young man, including Stafford. I hope he gets to hoist the Lombardi as a Lion, which will end all arguments.
He’s no where near Stafford

I had time to think about this. Goff is part of a Team, they all got to do well to reach a playoff let alone win those games. Jared can’t do it alone, and yeah he’s a damn good NFL QB-however, there are times Goff: makes errant throws, doesn’t get rid of the football fast-enough to not get hit, sacked, chased. there are times he’s being too risky with the ball, over/ underthrows his targets, and looks awful -at times- but just like Stafford, when Goff is on his game, he’s hard to beat EVEN top 5 worthy. HOWEVER , the team has 50+ players and they got to gel together well and function on all levels to be King of the mountain. It’s not just a QB, it’s team-effort, team reward.
Boom!
Jared Goff! Jared Goff! Jared Goff!
Yes sir! If we had been capable of fielding a defense in the playoffs of 24, we could have gone all the way.
That was driven, miraculous team. 15-2?
Last year, the deck was stacked against us. Somehow, we have to get the injuries under control.
hell if it weren’t for the fluke int-doink-TD we would have won
top 8 , ? , name 8 current NFL QB’s that are better than Jared Goff right now…
Honestly, Stafford is better with the busted plays, Goff is better at the non-busted plays
It’s basically even in the end
The Rams did not need to spend 2 first rounds on the QB position
He’s the ultimate example of what and above average to great offensive line and above average to run game can do for a quarterback who has excellent route running WRs/TEs with decent to Great hands.
It’s just too bad they never had a defense to go with it, because in that time frame there should be a couple super bowls.
as a full season starter Goff has had only one losing season 2021, when Lions had dump all over paid veterans brought in by Patricia

No matter how many times this is pointed out it will still be throw out as a negative for Goff…
