While the story of the wild-card matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Detroit Lions this week is Matthew Stafford’s return to Detroit, the other quarterback is once again being put on the periphery. Jared Goff is also going to play in a revenge game, as he was sent from the Rams to the Lions in the Stafford trade.
At the time, Los Angeles was coming off a playoff appearance with Goff at quarterback and didn’t appear to need an upgrade. However, McVay opted to pull the trigger on acquiring Stafford anyway, but he regrets how much he pushed Goff aside in the process.
