Or somewhere in between. No one will know for several years how good or bad he'll be. Even Mendoza isn't a sure thing. No one is till they get a few years in. He could be real good under the tutelage of McVay and Stafford. Or he could be not so good.

Goff hit a mental plateau which is why he was traded. I feel Simpson has a shot, not a guarantee, of being superior to Goff mentally.

You add in superior athleticism and there's a chance he can be Goff plus.

Robert Mays keeps saying that he believes McVay saw what Purdy could do in the offense and wanted that. A guy who can read out the whole progression of the offense and do it on time while offering some athleticism to create if things go wrong.

Def need to mental part for that.

Mays has said he sees Ty's ceiling as a slightly stronger armed Purdy. I'd be quite happy with that.

Goff wasn't good enough for Mcvay for two reasons.

One, he couldn't make unscheduled plays.

McVay knew that going in. The Rams knew that about Goff when they drafted him. Not every QB is Mahomes. So that was not a primary reason they got rid of him.

Agree. Goff wasn't reading out plays the way McVay wanted and was not protecting the ball at the end of his tenure here when a play was dead and he should have just thrown it away - of course, having a QB who could create would mitigate that.

Wow, we saw things completely different. Bulger was very accurate and could place it anywhere he wanted on anything less than 25 yards. Interesting as accuracy was considered one of his strongest traits by many analysts.

I found him to be more accurate than Warner in that range. But before I get flamed, of course Warner had good accuracy and was overall the superior QB.

Being accurate for short passes is different than being accurate for midrange tosses. Furthermore, both of those is not the same as being accurate for long range heaves. So both of you may be right depending on what passing length range you are referring too.

Yeah, Goff tried his hand in hero ball despite not owning a cape. The result was a lot of dumb turnovers.

What do you consider short passes? 0-10 is generally considered short passing. 10-20 often considered intermediate.

Do people just think QBs are chucking it 25+ yards all game??

Agree that Warner - in general - had better accuracy 25+

He has a tendency to melt down under duress. Detroit did a great job stacking a dominant line for him, which helped combat that, but I think they're still the team that is stuck with a QB who needs things to be perfect around him.
 
Dieter Brock made it to the NFC Championship Game. So, anything better than Dieter should be good enough!
