It’s an NBA salary dump move while upgrading the actual players be swapped.

Goff is an average QB. Stanford may just be this decades equivalent of Archie Manning. Now McVay has a QB he scouted that he believes fits the rest of his offense and opens things back up.

Their mistake was extending Goff two years ago when they likely figured he would continue progressing. Well, he didn’t continue progressing. The next question is what to do with that sunk cost.

This is just a call. They made it. One thing the current incarnation of this franchise is not afraid to do is be bold.

If staffolds extension makes sense, then they can keep/get some extra players over the next 4 years. We’ve got Donald, Ramsey and now staffers for the next 3-4 years. If they can shore up the interior of the Oline at all either with an acquisition or further development, they could be really good.

We can beat Seattle, SF still does not have a good QB and Arizona does not scare me.

Chips all shoved to the center of the table!

What makes Goff tick and put in extra work? None of us know. Their open comments seems like a weird way to motivate him with high potential to do the opposite, but it is possible. Us humans are all different.

None of it makes sense to me.

McVay strikes me as the kind of person that if you jettison him, he comes back stronger with his next team a few years down the road.

Or the organization can be patient with him while he matures.

Goffs contract is going to look a lot better in a couple/three years when the cap goes up.

That was fast.

Given Morris’s reputation, probably a good thing. I imagine the top group of coaches will meld quickly.

I agree, Oline improvement is the biggest need.

Might also need to prioritize a WR depending on what they think of the rookie.

Ag, has the team structured the other big ticket items correctly so we could afford him and Floyd?

The Faustian Bargain. I can’t imagine most end well.

Go 🐻

We rallied around Wolford and we played a good football!

Plus, we made their backup QB look bad.

they played good. i wouldn’t say great. but they played good.

offense was terrible. absolutely terrible. left at least 10 points on the board. at the very least.

I dunno Invader. It seemed like around 1/3rd of the game we gave them the ball between the 40 and 50 yet still held them to 20 points. I think the defense played great.

Merry Christmas 🎄 everyone!

It was Mr. Hyde’s week. The whole season has been this way.

Super bowl team one week, not even a playoff team the next week.

Some games something is off with the offense and there is more than one cause. I’m not smart enough to figure out what it is and how to fix it.

Strangely I gave up being unhappy about it around week 8.

We still control our own destiny.

Good win, defense swarmed, red zone defense was awesome!

Huge use of two TR sets and great blocking by the TEs and the wide receivers. Akers ran pretty darn well. Oline played OK, little too much pressure on Goff when he passed. Goff was only okay.

Special-teams was average and I hope they get better prior to the playoffs.

I like a win better than a loss!

Good team win.

Running game kinda iffy, but Goff made them pay.

Helps the defense got some turnovers.

very poor game by goff and mcvay.

defense did their job. gave up only 16 points and scored 7 themselves.

running game was stifled outside of that one big gain. but they did score a td.

but 4 turnovers? that was a killer.

Agree with all of your points.
