New England Patriots 26, Los Angeles Rams 10
Here are the top takeaways and highest-graded players from the New England Patriots’ 26-10 Week 13 victory over the Los Angeles Rams:
Quarterback grade: Jared Goff, 40.5
Foxborough debut far from a success
By the conclusion of the early Sunday games, only Dallas QB Dak Prescott and Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers had eclipsed Rams QB Jared Goff’s average time to throw of 2.86 seconds. The two issues with these averages are that, first, the other two quarterbacks currently rank within the top-eight at the position on the season in scramble attempts—which should be attributed to them utilizing their unique athleticism to extend plays—whereas Goff has scrambled after dropping back to pass twice in 105 dropbacks.
