Breaking: Unbelievable Statistics Highlights Lions Impressive Week 7 Victory
The Detroit Lions took over first place in the NFC North with another outstanding offensive performance on Sunday, and they made history in the process.
Jared Goff went 22-of-25 for 280 yards and two touchdowns while leading the Lions to a 31-29 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Goff has now thrown just 15 incomplete passes in the past four games. Backup QB Hendon Hooker also through an incompletion during Detroit’s blowout win over the Cowboys in Week 6, giving the Lions 16 incompletions in four games. They have scored 18 touchdowns during that span.
No matter how you look at it, that stat is mind-blowing. Goff has completed 84% of his passes over the past four games for 1,086 yards, nine touchdowns and one interception. His passer rating over that stretch is 140.8. It is hardly a coincidence that the Lions have won four straight games and look like they could be the best team in the NFC.
Defense will be the big concern for Detroit going forward, as they have lost one of their best players for most — if not all — of the season. But for now, their offense has simply looked unstoppable.
