Jared Goff’s contract extension is somewhat controversial among TSTers, which I find interesting given his overall performance under the tutelage of Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay.
There are tons of angles here and I’m sure they’ll all be addressed in the coming months as the offseason progresses. I’ve attempted to distill both sides of the argument to a manageable level.
Let’s be real here. Every time a quarterback in the NFL get a contract extension, the asking price for the next guy goes up. In addition to this dynamic, the percentage of a team’s salary cap that is dedicated to QBs increases with each passing year.
