Goff has been highly productive to begin the year, throwing 9 TDs without an INT. That’s the most passing TDs by a QB this season without an INT.
He’s also thrown for at least 300 yards in half of his games, and that can be attributed to necessity. Goff has faced multiple negative game scripts, with the Lions defense giving up the most points entering this week.
Goff is producing as the QB6 with 21.5 PPR points per game, and his QB1 production is only expected to continue given the state of his defense and the premier weapons at his disposal.
He’ll face a Cardinals defense in Week 5 that was allowing the fourth most points to QBs entering this week.
