I do think Goff looks much improved - more poised, looking downfield more, feeling the rush better. He will make young qb mistakes, to be expected. It would help if we could run the ball, which we can't.
Defense is overhyped. Going to need some upgrades at LB, DE, and S to be an elite D. Not that that can't be done.
If Goff continues to grow and the rookie receivers keep looking good, that's a lot to build on. That might be enough to expect this year, considering where we came from after last year.
