    California before beginning his pro career in Southern California with the Los Angeles Rams.The Golden State kid looked a little lost in the Windy City.Harassed by Chicago‘s fierce pass rush all night long http://www.ravensfootballauthentics.com/iman-marshall-jersey-authentic , Goff threw a career-high four interceptions in a costly 15-6 loss to the Bears on Sunday at a chilly Soldier Field. Several of Goff’s passes wobbled coming out of his right hand, and it was hard to tell where he was going on a couple more throws.“It’s definitely tough to play in a big-time game like that and not play well and not win and not do what you want to do,” Goff said. “But at the same time we’re 11-2, won the division with three weeks left and have everything in front of us and feel really good about that.”The loss dropped Los Angeles into a tie with New Orleans in the race for home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs. The Saints hold the tiebreaker after topping the Rams 45-35 on Nov. 4.Goff and company had won three in a row since falling short in New Orleans, averaging 40 points during the streak. But Los Angeles’ prolific offense was completely shut down by Khalil Mack and the Bears (9-4).“They did a good job getting some pressure and then they played tight coverage and there really just weren’t many plays to make tonight because of some of the selections that I had,” second-year Rams coach Sean McVay said. “So certainly don’t blame Jared for a lot of bad spots that I put him in.”Goff was 20 for 44 for a season-low 180 yards. NFL rushing leader Todd Gurley managed just 28 yards on 11 carries Trace McSorley Jersey , both season lows. Greg Zuerlein booted a 40-yard field goal attempt off the right upright at a key moment in the fourth quarter.“It was on everybody, we all played bad,” Gurley said. “Coaches down to the players.”Goff threw his first interception on Los Angeles’ third possession. Bears defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard pushed Rams left tackle Andrew Whitworth into Goff, and his wobbly pass went right to Roquan Smith for the rookie linebacker’s first career pick .Smith’s 22-yard return to the Rams 4 set up Cody Parkey‘s 31-yard field goal with 9:24 left in the second quarter.“They had a good scheme for us and did a good job, but we got to be better and that starts with me,” Goff said.Goff threw another interception on a Hail Mary on the final play of the half Kyler Murray Jersey , but the game was tied at 6 at the break.Chicago then went ahead to stay when Eddie Goldman tackled Goff in the end zone on the Rams’ first drive of the third for the Bears’ first safety of the season. Goff also was sacked by Mack in the third quarter and brought down by Akiem Hicks on a fourth-down play in the fourth.Los Angeles had a chance to get back in the game when John Johnson III intercepted Mitchell Trubisky in the third and took it back 35 yards to the Chicago 27. But Goff gave it right back, throwing an interception to Kyle Fuller on the next play.Goff’s last interception went to Prince Amukamara late in the fourth quarter, sealing the loss for the Rams (11-2).“I thought I put him in really bad spots tonight,” McVay said.Goff also struggled in last Sunday’s 30-16 win at Detroit, going 17 for 33 for 207 yards and a touchdown with an interception. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2016 draft said he feels fine and just needs to play better.“I don’t think this will be the last time I have a bad game,” he said. “And I don’t think it will be the last time I have two bad games in a row if I play for as long as I want to.” 49ers offensive guard Joshua Garnett underwent surgery on his finger http://www.cardinalsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-byron-murphy-jersey , Matt Maiocco of NBCSportsBayArea.com reports.Garnett is expected to miss three weeks, Kyle Shanahan said Thursday.Garnett dislocated his finger Saturday, and it “popped out” again Sunday. Thus, Garnett underwent surgery.“Josh had a good [offseason],” Shanahan told reporters. “He was in great shape. He’s been working hard. He just had another unfortunate thing, with his finger. There was nothing he could have done about it. He tried to come out and practice with it Andy Isabella Jersey , but it kept popping out. That was going to continue to happen, so we had to make the decision to get surgery.”Garnett hasn’t started a game since his rookie season of 2016 when he started 11. He missed 2017 with a knee injury and played only 59 offensive snaps and 16 on special teams last season.The 49ers declined his fifth-year option on his rookie contract, so Garnett is scheduled to become a free agent in the offseason.Defensive lineman Kapron Lewis-Moore injured a groin in practice Thursday. He is getting an MRI to determine the severity. Running back Jeffrey Wilson is expected to miss two weeks with a calf injury, Shanahan said.
