Jared Goff torches 49ers in Bay Area return

SANTA CLARA — Jared Goff looked every bit like the star he was while at Cal, and it wasn’t just because of the Los Angeles Rams gold and blue jerseys that closely resembled those worn by the Cal Bears during Goff’s tenure at the school.

Starting an NFL regular season game for the first time back in the Bay Area, Goff shredded the 49ers defense, completing 22 of 28 for 292 yards and three touchdowns in a 41-39 victory on Thursday night. He turned in the type of performance the Rams have been looking for ever since giving up a bevy of picks to trade up and draft him No.
