Right...and Mahomes isn’t benefitting from Reid, the system he’s in and his supporting cast.

It’s a weak, unsubstantiated narrative. Goff is playing great.
how dare you insulate that mahomes is helped by the likes of Tyreek hill and Travis Kelce and Kareem hunt..he is a record breaking QB ... he is already a first a balllot HOFer

Goff is clearly showing the effects from not playing a down in pre season.

Goff is a pure passer of the football.

Further clarifying - he is kind of skinny and frail looking.. he doesn't look like he has a lot of speed,

But he can just flat out fling some darts.

Kind of reminds me of a Right Handed version of Chris Sale playing football.....

After yesterday, I'm still on the fence about him.

Seems all he is is lucky.

QUARTERBACK

Jared Goff, Los Angeles Rams85.2
After dealing with questions about whether or not he was a system quarterback this week, Goff delivered one of the best performances of his career in the win over the Chargers. He was sharp throwing the ball downfield, completing 9-of-11 pass attempts 10-plus yards downfield, including going 2-for-2 for 75 yards and a touchdown on throws 20-plus yards downfield.

Jared Goff Hits Robert Woods for a TD
Over the first two weeks of the season, the Rams offense was nearly as impressive as the Chiefs offense, leading the league in yards per drive and drive success rate while ranking second behind K.C. in points per drive. But where the two teams differed was on defense, and L.A.’s star-studded group had given its offense a nice security net, holding the Raiders to 13 points in the opener and shutting out the Cardinals in Week 2.

Sunday, Jared Goff and Co. got a little taste of what Mahomes goes through each week. With cornerbacks Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib on the bench nursing leg injuries, the Chargers’ top-flight offense pounced: They chipped away at the Rams’ early 21-6 lead with a Melvin Gordon touchdown just prior to the half, then cut the subsequent 28-13 lead to eight with a 20-yard touchdown strike from Philip Rivers to Mike Williams.

But Sean McVay’s group kept the pedal to the metal, orchestrating a 12-play, 77-yard drive on their next possession, capping it with this 6-yard TD strike to Robert Woods.

That pushed the Rams’ win probability to 95.5 percent and served as the final blow to the Chargers’ comeback hopes. On the drive, Goff completed passes to Woods, Todd Gurley, and Brandin Cooks, methodically moving the ball down the field while eating up nearly five minutes of third-quarter clock.

A lot of teams might tighten up in that situation, but the Rams just kept doing what they’ve done all year, sealing the win to move to 3-0. In the game, they racked up 521 yards, 33 first downs (tied for most by any team this year), and went 8-of-11 on third down. They’ve now got an NFL-best plus-66 scoring margin, and if that doesn’t adequately paint a picture of an offensive machine that chews up and spits out opposing defenses, this might:

Imagine where this team would be if it wasn't saddled with a system QB!:mrburnsevil:

QB Jared Goff, Los Angeles Rams, 95.2 Overall Grade
The Rams picked up another double-digit win in the Battle for Los Angeles, and Jared Goff was right at the center of it. Goff notched an adjusted completion percentage of 88.2 percent, which ranked third among all quarterbacks in Week 3. He was only under pressure on 4 of his 38 dropbacks, but even that couldn’t slow him down as he delivered a perfect passer rating of 158.3 under pressure.

By Robert Mays

The Rams and Chiefs have emerged as the strongest teams in their respective conferences.

Three weeks into the season, both of these clubs have rolled through opponents with terrifying ease. Kansas City put up 35 points in the first half Sunday on its way to a 38-27 win over the 49ers. Rams QB Jared Goff cooked the Chargers defense and finished with 354 yards passing and three touchdowns in a 35-23 win.

I’m not sure how much is left to say about what Patrick Mahomes II has accomplished so far this year. The Chiefs offense is a weekly spectacle, and he’s running the show about as well as any quarterback could. His 13-yard touchdown pass to Demetrius Harris late in the second quarter against the Niners featured some advanced QB tactics:

After looking off the free safety by focusing on the two receivers to his right, Mahomes came back to the other side of the field, where a wide-open Harris was sprinting up the seam. The team’s combination of explosive athletes, brilliant route designs, and high-level QB play has turned this group into an unstoppable force.

In the NFC, the Rams offer a fascinating point of contrast. While Kansas City deploys an endless array of staggeringly athletic talent, the Rams receivers survive on route-running savvy and a scheme that creates room for them to operate. Brandin Cooks is a burner who can threaten any defense over the top, but Robert Woods ran a 4.51 in the 40-yard dash before the 2013 draft and Cooper Kupp’s 40 time at the combine puts him in the 13th percentile among receivers.

Both guys thrive in head coach Sean McVay’s offense because of how well they understand spacing and angles and their ability to alter their speed at the right moments. Woods finished Sunday’s game with 10 catches for 104 yards and two touchdowns, and the Rams proved yet again that they can beat you with a different pass catcher any given week.

Goff has also shown significant progress in the past year under McVay’s tutelage. Some of the hole throws he made Sunday weren’t available to him last season. With 1:40 left in the second quarter, he placed a ball to Woods on the right sideline—just over cornerback Casey Hayward in the flat and just in front of the closing safety—that was about as picturesque a throw as an NFL quarterback can make.

Goff is still only 23 years old. As he continues to improve, this offense should become even better than the unit that led the NFL in scoring last season.

This from today's MMQB:

https://www.si.com/nfl/2018/09/24/w...son-wentz-bills-vikings-browns-baker-mayfield

All the Rams’ shiny new toys have gobbled up the attention around the team in L.A., which has created a weird dynamic—a red-hot quarterback seems to be getting overlooked. Jared Goff shouldn’t be.

Through three weeks of Year 2 under Sean McVay, Goff has 941 passing yards, six touchdowns, two picks and a 111.0 passer rating.

And he was tremendous against a very good Chargers defense on Sunday, going 29-of-36 (80.6 percent) for 354 yards, three touchdowns and one pick (which came on a spectacular play by Chargers rookie Derwin James).

Should be fun to see him play on Thursday night.
