You down with SOP, ya you know me. Who's down with SOP. Thanks Ms. Thiry!
Does anyone remember that time that Shanahan told Terrell Davis he needed him to go back in the game as a decoy even though TD had a migraine and couldn't see?
You sneaky guy Mcvay
I don’t want to read into a few clips, but I’m seeing a more careful throwing motion there by Goff? i.e. Not going full go.
I tend to expect him to play, but at the same time find it hard to believe.
My wager; maybe we really do see some of both? But that doesn’t sound McVay like to me, so I don’t know.
Unless we win the SB. That would settle it, likely.
For some it would, for some it wouldn't matter they'd have to shit on whichever QB didn't play in the game.
I echo CGI on this one:
"I tend to expect him (Goff) to play, but at the same time find it hard to believe."
I can't wrap my head round him throwing a ball successfully with a thumb that has so recently been surgically repaired.
I am also concerned about what the pain/injury will do to his confidence in throwing the ball. As we know...he can be prone to losing his head a little bit, as it is.

I say that with the assumption that we are strapped to Goff due to his contract.
I think I'd be more concerned if you did agree with my point of view. Dickerson's take was embarrassing, blaming a 20-9 loss on the INT Goff threw. I dont think that the defense was "deflated" from that moment like 29 says, I think they're much stronger mentally than that. So you keep on keepin on
In this press conference interview, Robert Woods basically explains why Wolford should be starting Saturday, IMO.
The lack of talk or praise for our starting QB’s toughness around here is very telling IMHO.
Not sure you will see this, as you may have ME on ignore after our back and forth this past week, but I agree and I think it's time we all got on the same page. I personally never meant to get into any arguments about one player over another, I was just happy to see VJ and The Wolf (sounds like an 80s TV action series, lolz) play some good ball.
Sorry if I mistook some of your posts as attacks. I think we are all a lil punchy after this year and season, but we damn sure all want the same thing.....for the RAMS to hoist the Lombardi in February 2021!!!!
Thinking about it this morning, if Wolford was going to start, wouldn't he be getting all the first team practice reps? I suppose with COVID restrictions nobody would know.
But I'm now thinking Goff will start and McVay isn't saying anything so that Seattle has to spend time planning for Wolf for no reason.

not sure what to make of that video...
honestly in my mind its still up in the air.

You start Goff bottom line! He's your best chance to win. Wolf is capable but let's be frank...he limits what you can do offensively.
We know Goff can throw...and they will do what's necessary to make sure he can endure the game.
I'm more concerned with McVay's play calling than Goff or Wolf. McVay sometimes demonstrates "Mike Martz" stubbornness...and forgets his TEs and RBs are on the field.

If Goff plays that's some Jack Youngblood toughness, and you can say it's "just a thumb" but I've broken my thumb and I cried like a bitch for days
If Wolford starts and wins, great. If he starts and loses, gonna be a long off season.
If Goff starts and wins, great. But he'll have to win the next week or it's a long off season.
If Goff starts and loses, it's gonna be a long off season.
All things being equal (long off season), I want to see Goff playing Sunday.
Good post. We're gonna need some offensive production to win. We're gonna need a very good defensive showing to win.
What makes you think that? I would think it would be painful/tough to grip without your thumb being involved. Thumb is important.
Is it any more painful than dislocating and breaking your thumb, putting it back in the socket and playing the rest of the game? He injured his thumb with 0:44 left in the third. If you look at the numbers (6 of 14 for 74 yards) you might think the thumb affected his throws. All of the 6 completions were right on the receivers. 3 of the 8 incompletions were: a throwaway out of bounds, ball batted by DL and screen pass thrown into the ground because Brown had two or three guys near him. 3 of the other 5 were right on the receivers, but broken up by a DB twice (one clearly DPI) and a LB from behind when Everett had the ball in his gut. The fourth was a drop by Brown on a low pass but definitely catchable and the 5th, the only bad throw, was one past Woods but a LB could have tipped it. I didn't see an end zone replay. For the sake of discussion let's just call that one inaccurate. So, I honestly don't think the thumb was a big deal. Two screws and 12 days later, who knows but he might be fine. We'll see.

I don't have you on ignore the only people on my ignore are the ones that are always just negative or always attack posters and not posts. I'm all for discussion with differing ideas. I still don't see anything great from what Wolford did I did see some bad but it was hit 1st start. He shouldn't however be boosted as a good NFL QB or thrown in the trash heap after 1 game. At this point even with his warts I still think Jared is a better QB going forward. Only time will tell.
