A few years ago, Jared Goff was dismissed by many NFL fans, analysts, and even fellow players. Today, he has firmly established himself among the league’s top ten quarterbacks.
His resurgence is a testament to how impactful the right system can be, as he had always shown flashes of talent but struggled with confidence. After guiding the Detroit Lions to the NFC Championship Game, Goff secured a lucrative contract and carried his momentum into the new season.

During Monday night’s victory over the Seattle Seahawks, the former first-overall pick achieved a remarkable feat by completing 18 consecutive passes without a miss, setting a new NFL record (via Field Yates).
In the game, he amassed 292 passing yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions, earning an impressive passer rating of 155.8. To add to his standout performance, he also caught a seven-yard touchdown pass from wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Detroit’s offense displayed relentless efficiency, accumulating 389 total yards, punting only three times, and avoiding any turnovers. Their strong start to the season, reflected in a 3-1 record, positions them as a legitimate contender in the NFC.
Goff’s continued success under offensive coordinator Ben Johnson highlights his transformation. While he has thrown four interceptions this season and his touchdown numbers have dipped slightly due to an effective rushing attack, his performance ensures that no one is doubting his capabilities anymore.
