For whatever reason Goff was locked in down the middle. Woods should of put his hand up to get Goff's attention. I'm sure McVay will be playing that a few times in group meeting.

His primary area he needs to improve on is speed through his reads IMO. He is close, well close-r to being where he needs to be. But he is not there yet. Quicker through his reads will allow him to see those types of things.

IMO some of it probably had to do with Kupp being out. The kid is just all over Kupp. But it's probably a good thing right now to have Kupp out and make him go back to reading through each option in a given play without that easy completion Kupp provides.

And the opener isn't my main concern, as I think he'll be fine against Indy. But when the defenses in the NFC West come knockin he's going to have to get through those at the required speed or we're in for some damn pain.

Higbee was his second read correct? Along the same lines he didn't get off Higbee. I don't know why because he was covered. He should have quickly scanned right toward Woods before the throw away. This is an example of locking onto one WR.

Exactly....We missed Gurley yesterday. Goff really missed him.

I thought Brown ran really well. 9 for 44 and a lot of them were tough yards.

My take was that Goff was pissed because that play was designed as a quick hitter they thought would work. He threw it away because in preseason, you don't improvise as you are working on what plays work. Even in the regular season, you see the QB throw that high and out if it's not open.

To assign his ire to missing the throw - IMO - would be ignoring the coverage that was obviously there.

We can nitt pick Goff. But maybe we should be more apt to giving him the benefit of the doubt as he IS our QB and no doubt most of us hope he lights it up come the regular season.

Go RAMS!!!

Thought he left some meat on the bone....looked like there was more there.....IDK...he just didn't look explosive and hungry like a backup running back. He's so much slower than Gurley.

@Merlin
excellent work..great shot up above..after re-watching game...he does seem to stick on his primary....for a long time.... I wonder, was he still searching for Higbee? His best-ie

I'll have to check out the post game INTVs to see what McVay & Goff say about what seemed like 8 straight running plays called after the INT. What message was McVay sending him there? No shock if Mannion starts the season. As I said, if Goff sits next week he's safe but if he plays and repeats this performance all bets are off.

The Chargers weren't stopping the run, and our pass protection wasn't all that good on the right side of our line. That's the only message, Goff is sitting out against the Packers and starting against the Colts, McVay said that a while ago. The right side of the line needs to play better, that's the concern with our offense right now.

And the right side of the line says, so does the quarterback....

He looked rattled. The sack appeared to change his decision making real quick. I'm worried.

I think Goff's reaction after throwing it over Higbee was that he saw Wood's was open. Not that he missed the pass to Higbee.
