The Detroit Lions are 1-1 through two games in 2024. An exciting home win over the Los Angeles Rams was followed by a home loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The week two loss was frustrating for Detroit as they felt that was not only a game they should’ve won, but it was against a team they beat just a few months ago in the 2023-24 playoffs.
As we enter week three, QB Jared Goff is already undergoing multiple devastating reports.
Lions’ QB Jared Goff Already Being Dealt Devastating News Reports
According to John Whiticar of The Pride of Detroit:
How concerned are you about Jared Goff?
My answer: A bit concerned.
Turning to Hendon Hooker is not in the realm of reality despite what some are spewing online, but there is genuine reason to be concerned with Goff’s play so far. Goff is what I would call a rhythm passer.
He is at his best when the offense around him is clicking, and when that happens, you end up with an elite passer—you get him in a groove and watch him work. The problem arises when neither Goff nor the offense are in sync, and it leads to struggles all around.
We saw that offense against the Buccaneers. Goff was inaccurate on the day and rarely targeted a receiver beyond 20 yards downfield, a poor combination for any passing offense. He had some inexplicably poor decision-making as well which resulted in an interception and multiple near-misses.
Though he faced pressure at times, it was far from overwhelming. He looked rattled, plain and simple. He never found his rhythm as a passer and it sunk the offense as a whole.
It is wild to think that there are “benching” reports coming in just two games after the Lions were one game away from the Super Bowl.
Here are Goff’s stats through two weeks of the 2024 season:
