I don't really give Stafford that much credit for the Super Bowl (which is the argument people use to say it was a great trade). Let's try to be objective. In 2019 the Rams (with Goff) lost to the New England Patriots, Tom Brady and Belichick. They lost to a dynasty that was making its 3rd straight Super Bowl.
In 2022 the Rams (with Stafford) got lucky against the 49ers (interception should have been caught to end game). Then they faced the Bengals in Super Bowl. As much as you might like the Bengals and Burrow, not the same as playing against the Patriots, Brady and Belichick.
So in totality, I don't think Stafford was the reason Rams won the SB; nor do I think Goff was reason Rams lost the SB.
Do I think Stafford is better QB than Goff... the jury is out.
Staffords playoff run in 2021 was head and shoulders better than any of Goffs playoff performances.
Goff has improved a lot now no question. He’s played like a top 10 at times top 5 QB. Let’s see how it goes in the postseason.
