I think Goff is an OK QB.
I don’t think he’s an upgrade over Cousins. He’s probably a Derek Carr level QB in my
book. I think he’s a prime example of
how you can take a mediocre QB and surround him with a lot of talent and get a
great output. Their offense gets a lot
easier to defend, when you start removing weapons, and force Goff to carry the
team. I think an injured Gurley was
probably the biggest issue for them.
With Gurley, and especially if you add Kupp on top of that, they just
have too many weapons to defend. I think
a flexible defense that doesn’t show their hand right away will give them more
trouble.
I'd be concerned for him if Gurley gets a major injury or is out for an extended period of time.
