Is Jared Goff the second coming of Aaron Rodgers? [Bleacher Report]
Jared Goff has obviously been compared to Aaron Rodgers plenty. But how do the two compare in terms of their Cal career? Rodgers has obviously won more and had a more successful college career in terms of wins and losses, but Goff is on the verge of breaking many Cal passing records. Michael Weinreb has more on this feature of Goff.
The obvious model for Goff growing up was Rodgers. The two have never met, in part because Rodgers largely backed away from the program in the wake of Tedford’s firing, but Goff has watched copious amounts of Rodgers on television and film and admires the fact that "he takes a lot of pride in every throw he makes. I don’t think he’s throwing the ball just to throw it."
