Game winning drive. Perfect pass for TD. Just another box checked for Jared on the way to becoming one of the elite QB's of the league. The only thing that concerned me was he was almost too good. They scored pretty quick and gave KC time.
Ya, bro,I said he was on the Brees trajectory. I was wrong, he is way past it alreadyWith apologies to everyone including @Ramlock yes Jared Thomas Goff is elite!
They all get rattled. They don't all get back up and kick ass.He got rattled a little bit at times i thought - mostly from getting hit.
But the last drive when it was do or die - he did.

I TOLD anyone who would listen that Goff was elite.
I dunno about anyone else, but I’ve been saying this for the past 5 weeks or more.
There was a thread many weeks ago and I was one of the few to UNEQUIVOCALLY say that Goff is elite even then.
Just glad this isn’t or shouldn’t be a question anymore.
Your not the only one Bro. I backed him his rookie year as having Elite skills with no surrounding cast. And kept making the case last year that he was playing better than Wentz in all stats except for TD passes, making the point that the lower TD’s is only because Mcvay handed it to Gurley in the Red zone so much.
But there is a difference between proving to the NFL that you are Elite and as i put it having an Elite Trajectory that hasn’t been shown yet.
This game helped Goff convince some haters but until he has some pressure playoff games like this, he still has to prove his Elite status to the NFL.
Brees gets the sympathy vote for never having won one. Voters know Goff will have more chances in the future so he gets passed over.So, let's say:
1. With the fairly easy schedule ahead, Goff throws a ton of TDs and catches up to Mahomes total TDs.
2. Rams win out and go 15-1.
3. Saints lose a game, finish 14-2 and #2 seed.
4. Head to Head, Rams beat out Chiefs.
Now who gets the MVP? Goff?
