QB Jared Goff
Goff has not had a very good season and his struggles have really held the offense back. Now, he’s going up against a defense that has allowed fewer points since Week 7 than any team not named the Rams. And to make matters worse, a guy who practiced against him every day for a season and a half is lining up on the other side.
Goff must take care of the football against a secondary that features incredible depth at cornerback with Marcus Peters, Marlon Humphrey, Jimmy Smith and Brandon Carr. At safety, Earl Thomas is a star, as well. The Ravens have forced nine turnovers in their last four games, while Goff has thrown 10 interceptions and fumbled it nine times this season.
Goff can’t commit costly turnovers and give the Ravens short fields with which to work. If he does, this game will go sideways in a hurry.
