In a game that features all quarterbacks all the time, Los Angeles Rams and the Green Bay Packers will score a lot of points, and while the Pack has Rodgers, the Rams have QB Jared Goff who can light it up this season with the best of them.

He’ll do just that on Sunday.

One thing to notice in Week 8 as you watch both teams specifically on offense, is what Goff does with a lot of weapons around him, and what Rodgers does without. But that’s a Packers issue and not one for the Rams.

Goff hasn’t been spectacular the last two weeks, which is an indicator of how good the Rams are. But this week he’ll get back to 300 plus yards through the air as he goes toe-to-toe with Rodgers. Even with Kupp out for Week 8, he’ll have a big afternoon with Robert Woods, Brandin Cooks going long, and Gurley catching passes out of the backfield.

Rodgers can do a lot on his own including to will his Packers to a win, and he’ll show how great he is against the Rams defense. But Goff will have also have a monster kind of game on Sunday by using all the tools in Sean McVay’s offensive game plan, resulting in what could be a big afternoon for Los Angeles.
