Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff performed significantly on Monday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. He sets an NFL record by completing all 18 of his passes without an incompletion.
Hall of Famer quarterback Kurt Warner held the previous league mark for passes without an incompletion, going 10 for 10 for Arizona against the Houston Texans in 2005.
Goff threw for 292 yards, with two touchdown passes to Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. He hit Brown on an 8-yard score and Williams for a 70-yard score in the third quarter.
Goff also had a touchdown reception for the first time in his career, catching a pass from Amon-Ra St. Brown lobbed a 7-yard pass to Goff on a trick play in the third quarter.
Lions Running back Jahymr Gibbs ran for two touchdowns in the second quarter, and he finished with 78 rushing yards. David Montgomery, his teammate, also ran for a touchdown from one yard out.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith was 38 of 56 for 395 yards and one touchdown pass. Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker ran for 80 yards on 12 carries and had a career-high three rushing touchdowns.
Goff is one of my favorite quarterbacks in the NFL, and the Lions are one of my favorites to win the Super Bowl this year. If the Lions can keep their momentum going, I can see them as one of the teams in the hunt during the playoffs.
Next Game for the Lions:
