I haven't seen most of it but judging by most reactions it's a little comical to me. This is game 4 of the preseason which is the least important of all. Barely any starters and Fisher probably doesn't give a rats ass how the play calling. looks. He treats Goff like Gurley (doesn't want him hit) so it's dink and dunk. The doom and gloom is a little funny tonight.
Now if we look like crap week 1 I get it. Just breathe people
Same statements every year about it being just preseason.....and then.........well, we know what happens. 20 years of this.

Well.....Not much to say...
Thomas isn't looking too bad on Special Teams tonight. Maybe he unseats Reynolds or Bradley Marquez?

On the bright side, Tom Brady looked pretty good against the Giants tonight

Havent paid attention to him as gunner, but his body language sucks. I understand hes frustrated, but he cant continue to act like a whiner if he wants to make it in the NFL.

Thomas might make it for special teams and give him a chance to improve hands if that's possible smh

He's got talent. But he's just not catching the ball.

Wasn't Thomas the guy that downed the punt inside the 1 last week?

Goff HAS been hit plenty in this game, if you think the way Fisher has handled this game will benefit our young QB in any way I will have to disagree with you.I haven't seen most of it but judging by most reactions it's a little comical to me.

At the very least he should have left him in there to try and iron some things out. As it stands this shit will be on hthe back of his mind until his next chance, which might not be until next year. Not good, not good at all.

Goff isn't faltering because he's a "gunslinger"... Hell, Case Keenum is a gunslinger, and if you don't think so you simply haven't done your research (Most passing yards in CFB history, CFB's first 20,000 yard man)
Goff is faltering because his brain is wired for pre-algebra and he's trying to solve calculus equations.
Goff is a product of Sonny Dykes Air-Raid at Cal, which is far less demanding of a quarterbacks CPU.
His problems start from the neck up. Fisher is actually trying to help the kid by giving him algebraic assignments.
For those wanting the staff to let Goff wing it downfield... BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR. More interceptions will kill this team.
Gurley is the hoss we need to attach the cart to. Fisher sees that, and he's 100% right to use the proven formula of heavy run and defense. It's this teams strengths and the most proven way to win a Super Bowl.
That's this teams identity. Goff can fit in but he has a lot to learn. Keenum took his lumps with the Texans but he studied his tail off to become a pro.
It's up to Goff to become a pro. Fisher can't do it for him. Being a 1st rounder doesn't guarantee anything... Ask the Cleveland Browns. There are as many (maybe more) 1st Rd QB busts than successes.
