Dude extending the play yes, like moving and being comfortable in the pocket like Brees or Brady do, moving up and around, hanging in there to buy extra time. Like Goff did on that 3rd down first drive when he completed the pass to Brown on 3rd and 8. He got flustered after that and was literally checking down when there was no pressure on him. And we should still be able to win games without a running game. He shouldn't need 150yards rushing to be successful. Why don't people understand that? You know there will be games against actual good teams when the running game is shut down right?? So we're just going to accept losses in those games lmao? How about go make some plays when coach doesn't scheme people wide open on a silver platter. When hes forced to read a defense and anticipate he just struggles, and there were multiple wide open WRs he missed man. We saw it in the SB clear as day.
Thats why McVay gets all the credit and the talking heads don't give Goff the respect many think he deserves. He has elite arm talent but isnt an elite QB. Reading defenses, throwing accurately under pressure, anticipating people coming open, and playing well in games where you dont have a decisive scheme advantage, he's just not consistent enough. The Bills defense is twice as good yet he plays far worse against the giants. No excuse for his inconsistency IMO.
