For what it's worth, you can count Goff among the growing legion of Mahomes fans.

"He's incredible," Goff said. "He's the toughest guy in the NFL to defend right now, including Drew (Brees)."

He'll get no argument from Peters, who got a glimpse of Mahomes' potential last year while playing against him in practice.

Did Peters know how ridiculously good the young quarterback was a year ago?

"F--- yeah," Peters said. "It's crazy. He used to throw insane passes in practice without even looking. He's gonna be special. Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers, Peyton (Manning) -- you name it, he's gonna up there ... right along with Jared Goff."

I was impressed with Goff too. Dude looks like a skinny, wimpy surfer boy, but he took some good licks from the Chiefs and kept on chuckin it. Hes very good.

You love everyone else’s QBs.

It’s cute, really.

Once all the dinosaurs retire, the league is still set up with a good core of qb talent. Ours is just the best of the bunch!

Hope we can protect him and find health line for him to play behind

I hadn't seen Goff play outside of some highlights.

I came out of that game impressed. The Rams seem to be setup with a good QB for a long time.

I'd take Goff over Drew Brees too but not over Patrick Mahomes II

I think Mahomes and Goff are the best two quarterbacks in the league right now. Brees has the better defense and same coach for a long time that they are on the same page. Brees may have a few years left but his time is winding down and his records are going be up for grabs by Sir Patrick Mahomes II

Patrick is going have 500 touchdowns in the least amount of seasons in the 500 club.

Right now or long-term? Cause right now I think Brees is playing better or equal to anyone. I'd take him over Goff right now if we are talking this season.

I wouldn't. Brees accuracy is just amazing and is better than both Goff and Mahomes IMHO and that is not a knock on either Goff or Mahomes. But you can see that Brees is truly in the 'zone' when it comes to accuracy and making the correct reads. Goff said he still struggles with taking his strides to deep on his drops in the pocket which cause him to dirt some balls and we saw that a couple of times Mon night. Mahomes is still learning not to overthrow especially on the med to deep routes.

I'm not necessarily asking you specifically, but looking ahead about 5 years or so I am intrigued by the future of the NFL. I hope Goff stays as good as he has been this year, and Wentz returns to form so that we get to see those two duke it out in the NFC for years to come. Maybe Trubisky sneaks in there with them.

Just sticking with current NFL QBs, who will be Mahomes' career challenger in a similar vein to Brady and Manning? I want the Browns to succeed, but I don't think Mayfield will ever be elite. Maybe it is Andrew Luck? But he is currently 29 with a serious injury history. I must admit I do find it pleasing to imagine bouncing the Colts from the AFCCG every year. Deshaun Watson? If he can stay healthy and doesn't fall off as he ages and slows down I could see him being a challenger.

I was extremely impressed. I thought he was just over hyped, but the guy is clutch. He made some damn good throws when they needed them.

I think Gurley is over rated but Goff impressed me. I thought Goff was living off of Gurley but that wasn't the case at all.

“Gurley IS THE RAMS!”

Gurley proceeds to do nothing and Goff scores 40 points.

I never understood the Gurley MVP push, it’s like they’re being contrarian because it’s the “MVP, NOT THE MVQB!”

Sorry, QB is more valuable these days unless a RB drags a bad team to the playoffs like AP in 2012.

Goff was exactly who I thought he was. He was lucky but you can’t give him a second chance

Rasputin · 11-22-2018, 12:44 PM

See this is a good example of what's best in the great debate play rookie quarterback or sit them for a year.

Well as it turns out the player who works hard at his craft is going succeed either way. If you take your lumps you can learn from them if you sit on the bench you can learn from going in the off season knowing what expectations are. Jeff Fisher would have ruined Goff career had he stayed as head coach but Goff has really taken it in stride with Sean McVay. If anything Sean McVay should take a lot of credit for Goff success as he has elevated his game.

I think Patrick Mahomes II would have done just fine as a rookie and I believe without a doubt we would have beat the Titans in the playoffs. He is still learning and with experience those shootouts will be in end in our favor.
