Just rewatched Goff with a little more depth and here are some things I didn't pick up on watching live
1. Repetitive play calling-The Rams ran this quick out play about 5 million times and the broncos were sitting on it, maybe there was a reason behind it but it was infuriating how they kept running the same play. Higbee or Quick would be the big slot the outside WR would run a clear out and the QBs read was the out. Rams ran that about a million times Broncos were ready for it after the third.
2. Dangerous play Calling- The play that got Goff killed is an incredibly dangerous call with backups in the game, but I have no problem with the call if its Lance Kendricks instead of Justice Cunningham. It was a pretty basic play action roll out. The whole line was blocking down like a run play and goff rolls out to the opposite side where he has no protection and his TEs are leaking into the flat. When the TEs leak into the flat they have to get a chip on the edge rusher because they are crashing down like its a run play or they have a free run on a completely unprotected QB once they read pass. Cunningham barely touches the guy on the edge and the edge rushers runs full speed untouched and decks Goff
3. Wasn't clicking with Higbee tonight- connection with Higbee was off and alot of it was bad ball placement and you can also attribute alot of it to the broncos just sitting on that damn play we kept running. He threw to far in front of Higbee on his first 2 quick outs to him and on third he threw behind him and should have been picked sixed. This has alot to do with timing. It can only be ironed out with reps and varying the calls.
4. Recognition is really coming along-There was another play were you can see Goff is really picking up concepts and his recognition is developing fast. Rams had a third 10 in the redzone higbee was backside of the formation inline, and the broncos were sending an overload blitz from that side, giving Higbee a free run down the seem to the endzone on what would be a tough play for the safety, and a potential TD. Goff saw it all the way, but there was a freaking false start threw the ball in that direction after the false start he wasn't happy, but he kept his game face on. Changes the whole narrative if Reynolds doesn't jump. Instead its 3rd and 15 and Brown cant hold on to a tough catch over the middle short of the sticks, It was a catchable ball gunned over the middle similar to pharoh's drop last game
5. Darrell Williams couldn't hold up- Just one example. 3rd and long Williams going against a guy who isn't even a natural pass rusher gets beat so bad Goff cant even get to his checkdown Higbee who is open and his receivers running past the sticks don't even have time to get out of their breaks. It was a simple speed rush and he just blew by Williams and Goff gets smacked.
Random note. The only time ive seen Mike Thomas catch the ball this preseason the defender was a few yards away. If he feels or senses any contact he's dropping it. Cant do that in the NFL
