maybe its just me or the oline was that bad, but he seemed to retreat a lot and throw it a bit early to avoid the hit

0:43. That touchdown pass to Kenny Britt. I seen that play on hard knocks first episode. They were practicing that pass route. Dont you think that is predictable?

As long as he throws a good ball and it's one on one. I don't think it matters if it's predictable.

Announcers constantly point out WRs on single coverage and the QB throws it anyway.

That doesn't make it any easier to defend. That is one of the hardest plays to defend when the pass is on the money.

Yeah but when you have shows like Hard Knocks it shows the "limited" abilities of one. That can be problems in the future.
 
seemed like he panicked pretty often, granted the oline didn't play well but you still gotta make the throws
 
He stands in the pocket better than Foles already.
Great pro throw to Britt for the TD. But, he is not ready in my book. He flashes which is good, but, just some learning to do.

I haven't seen the game yet. Thanks for posting this. I concur. He seems "ready" to me. I was looking for the bad throws...l will go back and watch the video again. (n) I was very encouraged. Maybe I need one of those savvy analysts Steve Wyche or the lesser Simms to straighten me out.

It'll be a little bit longer until he's good to go but I'm not worried.

My only concern is he is getting passes batted at the LOS too often. Two INT's have come from that and IIRC he has had 5 passes total batted. Maybe 6......anyone know the number?
 
He made quick decisions and almost everytime he picked the correct receiver.

I liked his movement and sense of where the rush was coming from. O line was getting pushed around pretty good. Not as worried since I got to see all the throws. He will be fine.

After reading alot of the reviews of the game I thought he was awful.

After watching every throw not near as bad as I was expecting.
That's pretty normal. And it's why we're not NFL coaches. People look at stats and say he sucks. It's also why being an "analyst" is so easy.

His footwork really is amazing. And he throws such a nice ball. I think he starts in Seattle.
 
I'm not gonna be "over the top" like some.

Goff should not and doesn't deserve to start Monday. He's actually behind Mannion based on performance. So if Keenum were to go down, I would insert Mannion over Goff!

He just isn't there and has a long way to go. It matters not that he didn't have the "ones" because neither did Mannion and he still outplayed Goff.

Give Goff time...HE NEEDS IT BAD! I listened to 710 ESPN via my phone and I agree with them...GOFF IS 3RD STRING AT THIS POINT!

I have no idea what some of the talking heads are watching. But you can clearly see Goff's talent. We may not be coaches but after watching football for 45 years intensely you can kinda see the talent when it's there.

Based on the reviews I thought I was gonna see chicken little runing around!

Sure I agree he should be behind Mannion at the moment but that won't last long.

I'm not sure who was yapping on 710 but if they think Goff faceplanted last night then they should re-watch the tape and pay attention to the entire field and position groups

I really like the touch he throws the ball with. He can really lob it over the head of linebackers in that intermediate range.

At the moment he just needs it to slow down for him so he can drop back without thinking about the call in the huddle, play clock, the protections, whether the receivers are lined up legally, the defensive alignment, what the damn snap count was again, the transfer from the center, his feet as he drops back (this is all new to him). Right now I bet he's thinking conciously about every single step, and when you're thinking you're not instinctive - and the games too fast to think.

Once that happens - and it only happens with reps and time and mastery of the playbook he'll just go out and play some throw and catch, just watch the d, manipulate them with his eyes until they're out of position and throw that ball.
