Was there not fans in the GB playoff game?


Some of these hypothetical scenarios are really pushing it in my opinion.

Dude it was one game it wasn't a packed house and by then the writing on the wall was already there.
I'm just saying his numbers more than likely would have been worse had it been a regular football season and the offense in general might have been worse.

Tells you mcvay sucks at timeout usage. I'll bet you anything we'll see more of the same going forward.

Guess we will have to wait and see. I think that Stafford will lessen that burden and read defenses better but that is a wait and see.

Regardless, it's all hypothetical. I mean I could make argument the crowd would have helped Goff dial in more. Just saying.

I guess so. I dont believe the timeouts were about jg not being able to read a D. I think it was more mcvay not liking the look on d vs his playcalls.

Got it. Clearly we should have gone the route the eagles did. Fire our coach and keep our underperforming QB.

Dont need a crystal ball to predict a loss in the sb with a qb who has never won a playoff game in 12 years.
Yeah, ya kinda do. But we get it. Stafford sucks.

When it comes to an argument like that though dude with all do respect you got to take the common sense road. We can make an argument for anything. One thing that doesn't lie to us though is our eyes. Many weeks during game threads posters would legitimately say Goff looked confused blank stare drunk(not saying he was just comparison) hung over(see previous) etc. Typically fans can help create turnovers would not have bode well for Goff and possibly the entire offense in general.

Goff has always had a "confused" look on his face....always. Doesn't matter if he's throwing touchdowns or picks he keeps the same look. Eli manning was the exact same way.

It's possible but if he so cocky as you say that's probably not it. More that the speaker in Goffs helmet went off and he saw Goff did not audible to the correct play. And I'm saying Goff and the entire offense.
At some point we need to just understand we wish Goff well but he is gone and Stafford is our new qb.
My point was only to say if goof and the offense looked pretty bad and confused without fans it would have been way worse with and Goffs numbers would have been even worse.

For the rams sake let's hope it's not mcvays fault and pray that it was indeed what the team thinks because if it isn't then as rams fans we will suffer. So I hope Goff is a pro bowler for years to come but we need this.

True but he turned the ball over like Jamis Winston and look where it got him. He will be competing with Hill for a starting job. And yes Manning had that look but alsoade two or three of the most amazing throws in superbowl history. I get your point and I know you know football. You have to know that Goffs numbers would have been worse with packed stadiums. I mean they couldn't of gotten better and even the offense as a whole would have set him back further probably.

If you think mcvay should get away Scot free and scapegoat the qb because of the offense downward spiral the last 2 years I can see how you came to that conclusion. But sorry I dont share that same opinion. Mcvay is not above criticism and the offensive issues are just as much his fault as Goffs.

Ok calm down. Goff did not turn the ball over like Winston. Not even close. I dont know that my guy. Some players thrive and play better in those conditions and jg got the rams in the sb in the exact scenario you're saying he would be bad in. So I really don't know tbh.

Except Goff played better with fans in the past. But yeah whatever sounds good.

If I had any kind of photoshop skills I'd put Staffords head on that and he'd be holding a Lombardi.

No I agree ...nobody is above criticism...I did say the offense but as we all know the qb is the main focus of an offense. That take is fair enough.
