Are Lions QB Jared Goff's gloves evil? We take a look at every game Goff has worn them to show how dumb that idea is
You know the real reason why the Detroit Lions lost to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night? It wasn't that the offensive line played one of its worst games of the Dan Campbell era. It wasn't because Jameson Williams' penalty "cost the Lions an extra point because it was windy out" either.
The Lions turned the ball over on downs five times in the loss. Goff finished with a completion percentage of less than 50% for just the fifth time of his 10-year career.
It wasn't all Jared Goff's fault for Lions, but he completed 1 of 11 passes for 27 yards in the 4th quarter, when good QBs are supposed to win games.
Free Press sports writer Dave Birkett grades the Detroit Lions’ Week 11 performance in their 16-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
Carter told NBC Sports that they felt like Goff has a low arc release, and they wanted to try to take advantage of those opportunities at the line of scrimmage. Davis doubled his season total in one game. Carter now has 10 since the start of last season, second most in the NFL in that span.
The Detroit Lions are likely out of contention for the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC after a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
