QB Zach Wilson traded to the Broncos

Jared Goff was nowhere near garbage with the Rams. He never had a losing season in LA after his rookie year. 2x PBer, two 4600+ yard seasons, two 100+ passer rating years, 107-55 total td-int in 5 seasons, and 3 playoff apps including a SB app. He beat Mahomes in that 54-51 MNF shootout a few years ago. Goff was the main reason McVay had 4 consecutive winning seasons to begin his tenure. He did all of that before he was 27 years old.

His last season with the Rams ended with surgery for a thumb fracture which he was dealing with for some time iirc. He was still 9-6 in his last season before the surgery. He recreated himself by helping turn the Lions into a winning team, after being perceived as the very slightly-lesser QB in the Stafford trade, not because he wasn’t a good QB in LA.

Mac Jones and Zach Wilson’s personalities doesn’t change that they had terrible QB coaches and OCs who failed to develop them and didn’t put them in position to succeed coming into the league. They aren’t the first top 15 drafted QBs to be labeled as spoiled rich kids who think theyre above the team. The same was said about Eli and Philip Rivers but they had competent coaching at the beginning of their careers.

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
