QB Zach Wilson traded to the Broncos

It's easy to look at stats and make any comparison you want; fact is LA traded Goff away (plus 2 1st round + 3rd round draft picks) because they wanted a better QB who could bring them to the promise land. Jared Goff was not that person. Why draft a QB #1 overall + give up that much capital if he's doing a good job?

I think the humility of being traded; after being the #1 pick gave Jared exactly what he needed, ammunition to get better and become better.

Mac Jones and Zach Wilson are garbage and that has nothing to do with coaching. It has everything to do with them thinking they are better than they are and eating the kool-aide so to speak when coming into the league. How do you think Aaron Rodgers would of done last year or how he will do this year? Same coaches different player.

Eli Manning comes from a family of QB; not a fair assumption here.
Philip Rivers was highly regarded coming out of NC State, he also had ammunition to produce as people labelled him directly to Eli due to the trade

Not just stats, Rams won most of their games in Goff era on Goff’s arm. He brought them to those 11-5, 13-3, 9-7, & 9-6 seasons which included 2 division titles and a SB app.

The trade compensation looks like it reflected Goff being an injured QB coming off surgery on his throwing hand and a high INT-TD ratio season, plus a really high cap hit. Stafford had a much lower cap hit while he was at the end of his last Lions contract extension before the QB market spike. Goff and Stafford’s per game/per season averages since Goff’s first full season are very comparable.

Rams paid accordingly for an established QB who could immediately win a SB in their offensive system. I think Goff would’ve eventually won one with them since he already brought McVay to the SB 3 seasons prior in Goff’s 3rd NFL season. He was just 5 seasons into his career. Rams apparently didn’t have time to wait while Goff was coming off right thumb fracture surgery so they pulled the trigger for the healthier QB to meet their immediate goals. They’re essentially the same QB while one is more experienced. Goff bounced back once he was healthy and settled into the Lions’ offensive system.

Mac Jones had a good rookie year. Then took major steps back in his reads and release after his OC left and replaced with lesser offensive coaches who are now fired right along with Belichick. Mac Jones also never had a good WR1. Belichick always tried turning WR3s and WR4s into top WRs the entire time Jones was there. Wilson hasn’t shown as much as Jones. But hasn’t been coached by a good offensive staff for consecutive seasons either. They aren’t good QBs right now but have shown promise to eventually become decent starters with the right staff IMO.
