Again…remove any emotion. And stick with a consistent perspective (top 5, top 12, bottom half , etc). Goff is a top 5 MVP candidate by just about anyone’s ranking. Hate Him. Love Him. Over value/under value him. But That’s where he is as the Lions QB….this year. Not 2018/2019/2020/2021. I believe the Lions are the top scoring offense in the NFL and he’s their QB.
The Lions are the #1 offense in the NFL.
Yes, Goff has a great supporting cast.
Yes he falls apart with a bad Oline.
But with a top Oline he is a precision passer as good as any and executes at the highest level, that is undeniable.
Not to mention, Gibbs, Laporta, St. Brown and Williams only became stars at the NFL level with Goff at the helm. None of these guys were former Pro Bowl adds from other teams. He worked with them from the ground up to what they are now. That's impressive.
Goff's legacy is being written and he will need a Super Bowl or he will always be seen in the just another top 15 QB convo.
Even if he is leading the top Offense in the NFL again, while the Mahomes and Strouds look not so stellar.
