Moderator Goff POST #167 Interesting point A1. I have always believed it is not the number of turnovers per se. it’s when they happen, what is the net result of the opposition’s immediate possession, and to a lesser extent, did your defense turn them over (what was the result when we got the ball back on O). Basically, what is the result in TOs; who had the advantage in amount, and who capitalized on the scoreboard from the TOs. Depending on when JG has turned it over, one could state that he either A. Killed a scoring drive (turn over in + territory/red zone), led to a direct opposition score (pick 6, scoop and score), led to indirect score (opposition got ball and from either for a TD/FG), did no damage as opp couldn’t move ball and punted, or your D got you the ball back before any damage done, an erasure play as I like to call it. So people, apply all that shit to Goff and his turnovers. See what results you get. Weight and rank the data and do some analysis. Then do the same for Rogers, Brees, Brady, Wilson, Mahomes, etc. I wonder what that would reveal. Anyway, back to Goff. It’s just statistically better to not turn the ball over anytime or anywhere.

Dick84 wrote:Nope. You're having a different conversation, and feel free to have that one. I'm talking about Jared Goff and what's going on with *him*. You're on some bizarre tangent.I am? We're talking about turnovers. You indicated "Jared Goff is #2 in the NFL in turnovers" and that's what's perplexing you. The Rams are 7-4. Goff has been to a Superbowl and lost. The Rams are 40-20 with Goff under center. So Jared Goff, with a 40-20 record under center, a SB appearance and a number of great games under his belt, can't "shit the bed" even though guys like Russell Wilson (#3 in turnovers) or Tom Brady (1-4 against good D's in 2020) shit the bed too? Okay. You don't want to have a serious discussion. You are simply pissed the Rams have lost 4 games and Goff's had some shitty games, so you want to rail on Goff and vent. The wins? No, that's McVay and the defense right? Well, some might say that's a bizarre tangent. Dick says "If Jared Goff can win a Superbowl, he can shit the bed and it'll be okay with me". Dick wrote:Russell Wilson has won a Super Bowl and shown he can be relied on to excel in the playoffs... Jared hasn't.Jared hasn't? Oh right, we can't talk about the New Orleans game because it's ancient history and 'everything went right for Goff most of that game'. In a young career.....3.5 years starting in a legit NFL offense, 2-2 in the postseason, winning a conference championship game and "he can't be counted on to excel in the playoffs". WHAT?????? Time for you to recalibrate brother. Been following the horns since the Coliseum had a Roman playing there.

Moderator Goff POST #167 Interesting point A1. I have always believed it is not the number of turnovers per se. it’s when they happen, what is the net result of the opposition’s immediate possession, and to a lesser extent, did your defense turn them over (what was the result when we got the ball back on O). Basically, what is the result in TOs; who had the advantage in amount, and who capitalized on the scoreboard from the TOs. Depending on when JG has turned it over, one could state that he either A. Killed a scoring drive (turn over in + territory/red zone), led to a direct opposition score (pick 6, scoop and score), led to indirect score (opposition got ball and from either for a TD/FG), did no damage as opp couldn’t move ball and punted, or your D got you the ball back before any damage done, an erasure play as I like to call it. So people, apply all that shit to Goff and his turnovers. See what results you get. Weight and rank the data and do some analysis. Then do the same for Rogers, Brees, Brady, Wilson, Mahomes, etc. I wonder what that would reveal. Anyway, back to Goff. It’s just statistically better to not turn the ball over anytime or anywhere. There are just some turnovers worse than others. I personally thought Brown’s fumble was an absolute drive killer.

Perhaps we should temper our expectations - both negative and positive - and see what happens and how JG plays. I am also in the A1 camp the MCV is not exactly coaching lights out lately either. Both JG and MCV need to improve. And so ya know, ya I was fucking livid in real time watching all those turnovers. But I mellow out a few days later and try to be more objective and long sighted. 2 Reply 17 / 38 1 17 38 Display: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by: AuthorPost timeSubject Sort by: AscendingDescending Jump to: Forum Rams/NFL Other Sports Rams Fans United Q&A's Board Business 371 posts Jul 11 2025

And my *frustration* is because of the type of brain-dead fucking turnovers they are!Why is that an issue????? Seriously. They piss me off because they are sooooooooooooo bad. I mean... if you play a defense and they just make great interceptions... I'll acknowledge that. Sometimes you make a throw that's high reward and you take a risk... that can be okay. Throwing the ball into Sherman's hands? Fumbling because you don't slide? Throwing the ball right at a Dlineman for the second time this season? These are absolutely maddening! Sheesh!Your definition of “bad turnover” is pretty subjective. They “look” bad, some atrocious. But say he has a “bad” turnover that leads to nothing. Ok, it kills a drive but, what if he takes a sack instead then we punt? And in each of these scenarios the other team goes 3 and out after? Then they are basically the same shit as they had the exact same net result. Now we all know in both the Miami game and against the whiners he had killer turnovers that led directly to opposition TDs. How many of those has he had, did we lose the games he had them in (KC in 2018 comes to mind), and does he have a “turnover problem” when looking at it through that lens and the one I detailed in an earlier post? by ramsman34 4 years 7 months ago Total posts: 10040 Joined: Apr 16 2015 Back in LA baby!

Yet, we are 7-4 with 5 to go, currently the 5th seed with everything still open to us; including the #1 seed.
