Source. This actually really surprised me. Sure, the Lions’ offense hasn’t looked as good as last year, but it is still top 5 in the NFL right now. Goff has been as good if not better than he was last year; if receivers can clean it up, between him and what Gibbs can do, we could end up with the number one overall offense before all is said and done.
It’s funny how perception differs from reality sometimes.
Anytime someone like Mahomes or Lamar have a couple receivers drop a few passes all you’ll hear is stuff like:
“Wow Lamar’s WR core is so bad and they’re only reason he isn’t putting up better passing numbers!”
When Goff’s receivers drop twice as many passes you won’t hear a word about it. People will just look at the offensive production and say Goff is mid.
