Jared Goff

What --- if anything --- concerns you about Goff going into this game? Maybe I haven't looked too hard, but I haven't come across much discussion about such things as his ability handle the crowd noise, avoid turnovers, make big throws in the clutch, etc.
My thinking is that he has not played before in a game of this magnitude and certainly not in front of the crowd that he will face. Those things may ultimate factor in our favor.

Hes very dangerous if you dont get pressure on him.

I agree that he can be lights out when given time. But can we say we've seen him make key throws on the road in a game of this magnitude?
Maybe he shows up and plays with ice water in his veins. But it wouldn't surprise me to see him be a bit off, given the environment and the circumstances at play.

Yah I hope so. Foles played badly last week and missed some throws that he usually makes. Maybe it was crowd, maybe our D line got more pressure on him somehow than it seemed

Here is an interesting tidbit that I found --- of all places --- on a Rams fan message board:
YOUNG QBS IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
14 of the 76 teams (18%) that played in the championship round from 1999-2017 fielded qbs that were 25 years old or younger... goff and mahomes will make it 16 of 80 teams come this weekend.
goff will be the the 8th youngest qb to have started a championship game since the 1999 season, while mahomes will be the 3rd youngest.
the bad news is these young gun qbs haven't fared too well in their championship game starts. they've posted a combined 3-11 record, led their teams to an average of 17 points, completed an average of 56.2% of their passes, and booked a cumulative 70.5 qb rating.
only 2 of these guys played at home in the championship game, where they split 1-1, while the other 12 guys had to play on the road, where they went 2-10.

He’s fantastic with McVay.
But we will see if he can handle the environment. It’s not only him, but his line has to handle it. it will cost them some penalties. But surely, we can’t spot them points like we did the eagles.

Is that so?
Dallas game:
One pressure
15/28 (53.6%)
186 yards
0 TDs
74.4 QB Rating
Screams dangerous...

But what is dangerous is Gurley setting him up to make them look better than that. If he has to put the game on his shoulders I think he will have trouble in a hostile environment in a high-pressure scenario.

He hands the ball off to a couple of good running backs.
If you're a Saints fan you want Goff to be the one forced to beat you.

He’s Foles with a stronger arm.
