Jared Goff Breaks NFL Record in Lions' Thrilling Victory Over Seahawks
Jared Goff broke an NFL record by leading the Detroit Lions to a 42-29 victory against the Seattle Seahawks, marking Seattle's season's first loss. Goff completed all 18 of his passes, unprecedented in NFL history, including two touchdowns and his maiden career receiving touchdown. This flawless performance left both teams at a 3-1 record for the season. This is prepared by SSP.
Detroit's coach, Dan Campbell, regretfully realized Goff's perfect game late, having already awarded game balls to other players. Despite not knowing the exact extent of his achievement, Goff maintained exceptional accuracy, contributing to the Lions' 100% completion rate, a historic feat last accomplished before 1933.
Receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown facilitated Goff's first receiving touchdown, executing a planned play dubbed "Alcatraz," which they had meticulously rehearsed. Detroit’s offensive line, even with Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow sidelined, offered Goff substantial protection, enabling him to rack up yardage and connect wide-open passes effectively.
Highlights of the game included Goff's substantial mid-game realization of his unblemished performance and his adaptability to game situations. By game's end, the impeccable teamwork among linesmen and receivers underlined the Lions' efficient unit dynamics, helping the team to consolidate their standings post the game.
As Goff humorously noted Campbell's game ball mishap afterwards, he and fellow players like Jahmyr Gibbs, who rushed impressively, celebrated the collective team triumph and Goff’s singular personal record.
