Did the Detroit Lions OVERPAY Jared Goff? 

The good thing about Goff is he's a pure pocket passer so it's not like the dudes gonna try and hurdle a defender week 2 and get injured the rest of the season. I think they realize they have atleast 2-3 more good years with Goff so I don't see the problem with the contract

Its expensive to pay your guy but it's also unbelievably costly to go get another guy thats better. If you take a chance on a young guy and it doesnt work, it's all for nothing.

Lions have the number 1 OL in the league, Goff is near perfect when he has time. One game last yr he was 24/25 when unpressured.

Most of these top paid QBs are nothing without a running game but they won't pay RBs.

That’s just how the QB market is nowadays, QBs are expensive and good/above-average QBs are taxed. That’s the modern day NFL

Cap is expected to Jump from 235mil in 2024 to over 280mil in 2025 and over 300mil in 2026. I think it was smart to sign him now before Tua, Love, Dak get extended and then the QBS next year will be close to if not signing for 60mil a year. Yes the total dollar amount for the Jared Goff extension was top of the market but when take as a percentage of the Salary Cap at time of signing his AAV is only 10th most

In today's obviously insane market, the Lions HAD to do this. So not an overpay

I was waiting for this video...

I think Jared Goff is worth 3 wins... But with help of having a good team around him

Yes. It needs to be front loaded. He's the most dependent on a good team around him..and I feel he is a very good QB just not the 2nd or 3rd highest and didn't make the SB. But hey I still feel QBs get much blame and sometimes to much credit

overpaying your qb is the cost of doing business

All over paid

Is Goff good enough to win a super bowl? Yes. Are there 32 human beings in the world good enough to win a super bowl as a QB? Yes.

Gotta pay the price

They've been great at drafting recently, if they can continue to get good players in the draft the contract shouldn't be a issue

Bill Baggins: Well no... and yes...

Old guy here. I’ve always wondered why as the QB gets older, he gets more money even though he will be older, a step slower, and loss of arm strength. It’s paying more for a depreciating asset. It’s crazy to think about.

Im happy w the state of lions affairs ... but to be honest, if this was literally any other gm thats ever existed, id be worried. But brad holmes somehow doesnt lose talent, and if we do like w jonah jackson, we replace him w equal talent for cheaper like we did w the guard we signed in free agency

Like all things, the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

Lions had tons of Cap space, what this does is pressure other teams to pay the same or more to other QBs, which will squeeze their space.

YES

Yes

Like to see a video on whether lamar Jackson is overpaid. The narrative is that Lamar deserves nothing as he is not a QB and not a proper football player.

I don't know why this is such a big deal. Goff IS a top 5 QB in the NFL. If you look at when Goff had had hiccups in his career it was early on with the Rams and his first year in a new system and coach in Detroit. Once Goff got a grasp in both systems he has taken off. A guy that has played at a top level in 2 different systems, under 2 different coaches, with 2 different franchises IS a franchise QB. After last season Detroit was one more passrusher and secondary help away from a legitimate SB contender. Yesterday I heard Hodge and John's on a Bears network criticizing the Goff extension which was funny to hear 2 fellow Bears fans that wouldn't know a franchise QB if he drilled them between the eyes through their TV screens, criticizing another franchise for resigning a proven commodity.

Yes he's overpaid slightly but the lions have a 4 year window no reason to not try and win.

Nope go breakdown the numbers & contract it's actually a deal! Cap hit this year 17 million next year 32 million & can down even further

No. How is this even being asked? Only a casual would think this.

No, they didn't because of how they see his value. Considering they struggles they were having. I think things worked out well for him and Stafford. But overpaying a player isn't really outside the organization place to judge. We're not around these players constantly. We only see what they do on the field. Not in the locker room or anything unless they do something bad. But when these players are doing great things for their community, you don't tmz or the news or even vloggers like yourself talking about it! Just more negativity to continue to discredit people. Why not celebrate his rebirth with The Lions. Celebrate when these spotlight people do great things?! If the organization feels he's earned that money, then why pick it part based solely on game film? Do you film about any of his charity events? Things he's doing in the community? Helping children? Or the homeless? Is he beating his wife or a psychopath? Why do people always find ways to tear others down? Why can't we lift each other up? Support each other? Love each other? Why is it so hard for human kind to be kind humans?! It's so heartbreaking!

As long as he keeps Tampa Bay Buccaneers down I’m good with his paycheck

Window closing? Lions are a very young team with a young QB. Why?

Cousins and Penix looking better and better.

They need somebody to keep them relevant.

Saying Goff is better than Purdy is crazyyyy

Yes. The Lions won't sniff the Superbowl and they know it.

Jared Goff is complete trash tbh.

your talking about i guy who took 2 different teams to the conference finals in the last 6 yrs you gotta be shitten us as to his pay scale who in the hell has done that in this league?….answer not a single person as a quarterback so get over the dam money already! 🤷‍♂️🦁🏆🦁🏆💪👍
