If jg is healthy enough to activate no reason to have him start on the bench. That just starts unnecessary controversy and might destroy the relationship mcvay/goff had.

well... what if wolford starts and he gets hurt?

if goff has any capability of playing you need him.

just because he doesn't start doesnt mean he shouldn't be active.

Especially if things don’t start off well. Staying positive though. If they talked about it, might just be he doesn’t trust the thumb and wants to minimize snaps

Yes it does. You dont say "goff is our starter" then have him start on the bench. If he's healthy enough to be active then he needs to start period. If he plays bad than yank him but it shouldn't be the other way around. That's crap.

Yea I dont like that. If JW starts and plays bad and you have to put goff in you're putting him in a bad spot because at that point Seattle knows you're gonna pass and will crush Jg. If that's really the case than imo that's a dumbass decision by mcvay and if we lose itll be his fault.

Yeah but stay positive. Thoughts like that bring bad mojo.
he starts Wolford, catches them with a bad matchup, Goff trots out there and shreds....

Man if wolford catches them off guard then I hope he continues to just that for the rest of the game. JG can stay on the bench if that's the case.

you aren't getting it... he isnt 100%. So they don't want to take the risk unless they have to.

It completely makes sense to have him active - if you are left with no choice you throw him in there and gamble with his thumb.

This was likely the plan all week.

Well if it's Wolf he has a chance to be a Rams legend with how he plays today.

Best of luck young man.

I am getting it. If he's not healthy enough to start dont activate him and go with JW. If he's healthy enough to activate then he needs to start.

no you are being emotional. His thumb isnt 100% so its a big gamble to play him, unless they have no choice.

plus they wanted seattle to prepare for both regardless.
