Goff, Leading the league over the past two years in turnovers which includes interceptions and fumbles is laughable on such a stacked and loaded offense and great defense. As everyone that knows about football understands, TURNOVERS is the number one determining factor of wins and losses in this league, nothing else is close. Goff was probably the only reason the Rams lost so many games as they did. Where as Jimmy's injuries was probably the biggest determining factor of how the Niners lost their games not his play on the field when healthy. That is the main difference between these two quarterbacks and it's a big one. Let's not pretend that isn't the most important factor in all of football and Goff was the WORST at it. No sugarcoating it, No justifying it, no apologies for it, no spinning it. It's plain as day
We already went through this…Jimmy has a higher int % then Goff….JG is not even remotely close in passing attempts which gives more opportunities for fumbles/TOs. Jimmy in his only full season had 10 fumbles as well…when you're 20th in passing attempts, one of the lowest QBs in air yards AND highest in INT% that's an issue.
Your assuming yet again Jimmy would have more turnovers which in not a correct assumption. It depends on factors like wether we play a great defensive opponent and if we have the lead which we usually did we are running the ball, the flow of the games, our offensive line protection from game to game and so on. What a novel idea? Guess you missed that whole concept. More attempts don't always equate to that same rate of turnovers. Oh my
so many factors determine that. Also, Jimmy was playing with a less talented and less healthy team. You can't extrapolate and assume Jimmy would have more turnovers at that rate. What we DO KNOW FOR SURE is Goff had a better and healthier team around him since Jimmy G got to SF and was embarrassing bad the last 2 years with his turnovers. Like Christmas time for Defenses. Kinlaw says hi too
Jimmy was not an embarrassment like Goff was the last 2 years with those TO's. He lost games and his own coach was pissed. Check some postgame comments by McVay, totally called out Goff for good reason. Also, we have seen Goff play like an absolute bust before McVay and Jimmy played (and WON) so much better with a very average team in 2017. Jimmy was never that horrible. I know it's hard for you to admit but it's cool.
