Jared GoffQB
McVay signed Goff to a $134 million extension after the Super Bowl run before he had fully proven he could elevate the offense independently. Within two seasons, McVay lost confidence in Goff, the offense declined significantly, and Los Angeles had to attach multiple first-round picks to upgrade to Matthew Stafford. The Goff extension is viewed as an expensive mistake that resulted in two average seasons; the Rams' #1 defense in 2020 was held back by Goff's lackluster QB play.
