* Draft status argument. He can't be that good if he was picked late.
* He has good players around him argument. Never used against anyone else.
It's all just size and stature and appearance stuff. Plus draft status of course.
If you look at the arguments or even talk to these people it's NOTHING TO DO with how he ACTUALLY PLAYS. It's not even related to that. No matter what he does, no matter how good, how many wins, how efficient, elite processing, tremendous accuracy, timing and anticipation, off schedule plays it is just never enough.
They just keep pointing to the pre canned ideas about his physical stuff. Which they overrate anyway. He has enough physically. It's tougher to see the mental side of football. The average fan just looks at physical super hero's and assumes they are a great player. Lamar can run fast. Allen is bigger than Linebackers. That's what they see. He's too average size looking and doesn't have that super hero athlete appearance that you can point to. They just don't see it. Not that it isn't there. They are just looking in the wrong places.
For a moment there, I thought you were talking about Wayne Gretzkey.
I forgot Goff could run a 4.3, super strong, is mobile, and is an elite processor. Lmao f**kin delusional fans. I like Goff and am happy it's turned out well for him, if we weren't playing them I'd want lions to win but they need to realize this isn't played in Detroit. This isn't played in a dome. This isn't a scrub defense, and this isn't a one trick pony offense. There won't be rain to even out the offenses.
at the end of the day, I'd take Purdy over Goff and Kyle over Campbell - doesn't mean I think they're bad but I'll take our squad over theirs six different ways to Sunday.
