If Goff sucks according to this moron than Kyler Murray is worse. Murray played "ok" as a rookie starter. That said he shows a lot of Baker Mayfield in him and not in a good way. Both of them have yet to show they can read defenses. Once they start to move they aren't really extending the play they are running. Look at Russell Wilson who is the definition of a QB who moves to extend plays which makes him far more dangerous. Mayfield and Murray are far more easily defended as you simply take away their first and second reads and they will simply try to run. Until both Baker and Kyler prove they can read defenses, they are like all the other running QBs before them that never became "special".

Both Mahomes and Jackson are both dangerous on the move as they are still looking downfield for dropped coverage. Mayfield and Murray aren't even close to being QBs like Wilson, Mahomes, and Jackson. Kyler's second year playing will show a lot about him as a QB. You have to remember the Cards changed the entire offense to be basically the same as the one Kyler played in at college. How well that translates to the NFL is debatable.

If the offense is a 2 read then run scheme I predict a short career for Murray. He isn't a big man and his ability to absorb hits is a big question mark long term.

Killing the messenger is the best way to stop getting bad messages. Eventually people get tired of losing messengers and will start fixing things before delivering messages.

Also, I didn't watch the video because I've heard enough of that opinion already.

Alright, guys. I get it. I just thought it would make some people laugh. I guess I was wrong.
