Slight of hand. That's just a blip. No one ever said (or ever would say) that consistency means flat line identical numbers. That's a complete red herring and straw man mixed into one. Max was talking about groups of games on either side of the variance. Here's the thing and try to respond to it straight on, without mixing things up or going off topic, or clouding the issue. After a strong initial 11 games (with one blip against Denver) Goff ended the season with 5 of 8 final games where he played below average. THAT is the kind of inconsistency that is being described. A 2 game comparison from Ryan in 2013 does not answer that. It's not the same. Let's look at Ryan in 2013. He had 3 games total that year that are below the 80 threshold. The one game v. one game "variance" of 100 you remark on is meaningless. (It's not the same as Goff's groups of games--10 at 100 and above v. 6 at below 80, with 5 of those 6 coming in a bunch in the last 8 games.) The REAL (lower level) variance for Ryan that year is 7 games at 90 or above v. 3 games below 80, with those 3 coming in the middle of the season. Now would you describe that as heavily inconistent on Ryan's part? Cause if you would, 2018 with Goff is far more pronounced...ie. it's worse. If to you that is normal unremarkable ups and downs in good qb play, then Goff in 2018 did not reach that. And we want him to and he can this year. And besides we want Goff to be better than Ryan anyway. I would not describe Ryan as a top 5-6 type qb, though he is top 10, and on top of it he lacks the clutch gene we already know Goff has. We want Goff to sustain his play through the season. Consistency in that case does not mean identical numbers every game---that's that bad marriage between a red herring and a straw man I was talking about. Odds are no one ever does that and it's not what is being discussed. ....wait. Thats way too logical. No one will agree with that. ~ max ~“The consciousness of good intentions disdains ambiguity.” - Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers by aeneas1 5 years 11 months ago Total posts: 16894 Joined: Sep 13 2015 Norcal Hall of Fame if you could swap goff for any qb, right now, who would it be?/ Mike Sando QB Tiers POST #302 PARAM wrote:Well you need to do a little more research Max.

Good lord, I thought this was a place for Rams fans to discuss.The idea here is to have open minded discussions that considers not only the positives but also potential negatives. You want pure homer talk? Put me on ignore cause you’ll never get pure homer talk from me. You want probing discussions that consider potential issues that could cause us problems then count me in. ~ max ~“The consciousness of good intentions disdains ambiguity.” - Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers by /zn/ 5 years 11 months ago Total posts: 6943 Joined: Jun 28 2015 Maine Hall of Fame if you could swap goff for any qb, right now, who would it be?/ Mike Sando QB Tiers POST #306 dieterbrock wrote:So Max wants Gurley knee injury to be real and for Goff to be a bust.

Here's the real variance with Rivers from 2006. He had 4 games below the 80 threshold, with 2 of those grouped together at the end. Against that, he has 10 games at 90 or above. It's the same with Rivers in 2013. If that counts as a pronounced inconsistent season, then Goff in 2018 is worse (in terms of numbers of games below 80 and when they happen). If that counts as normal for a good qb, then Goff has not reached that yet....It’s no use, zn.
