It's only Tuesday, but there is so much more to discuss this week now!

I found the Dolphin threads to be fun to read - they are across the board on if they think this is good or bad for them, but they are certainly looking at this seriously. One even made a pretty thorough 5 point list of why Goff will fail.

They kinda consider themselves QB killers, I didn't realize that. Though, Goff certainly isn't getting an easy start facing Wake and Suh.

Our QB killer is Jeff Fisher, just never know whether it's the opposing QB or ours that he kills. I am excited to see Goff starting. However, my enthusiasm is muted somewhat by our coaching strategy and the offensive line.

It seems that the receivers are getting open more and are playing better than earlier. They will need time to gel with Goff.

Go Rams!

Hoping Fish isn't setting Goff up to get Suh'ed.

O-line, this is **NOTICE**

"Lol at people scared of a rookie QB so ****ty he couldn't beat out Case Keenum."

Time for JG to show 'em all.

Yes!

I'm wondering on the Keenum to Britt factor, Britt has been coming into his own - but is that because of Keenum? Has Goff even practiced with him?

As much as I hate to think this, we might have a divided WR and TE corp right now - those who have been practicing all these months w Goff, and those w Keenum.

Goff may prefer who he trusts, who he's been playing with at practice. Just a thought.

Goff likely has chemistry with a few of the 2's. To me this expands the offensive combinations. The one's have been getting open. if the game slows down for JG and he see's them, he'll do just fine with the 1's too.

You're right. Should open it up to include those not included before, plus the current.

I feel like our whole rest of season is now what the first half of season should've been.

So it goes. Here we go.

Ok, ok. Seriously: HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU SAY THE CHANCE TO WIN US FOOTBALL GAMES.

Let me ask a two year old. So, it was Keenum. Now it's Goff.
