    Goff is really an interesting case of “how being a top 5 pick” works against you…

    If he was selected at like 15-25 in the draft he’d be looked at like an elite pick. He’s had what 17-18 decent games in a row before today.

    But since the expectation has always been set it feels like he’s a failure at times.

      This is false. He’s looked like this because of his contract. After your first 5 years no one cares about which pick. Dak is criticized, cousins is criticized. It’s because they got top 5 qb contracts but couldn’t consistently win.
