In a week where questions loomed about his performance following a five-interception game, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff bounced back in impressive fashion during the Lions’ 52-6 demolition of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lions head coach Dan Campbell praised Goff’s ability to respond after a challenging performance, noting his resilience and focus on improving.
Campbell acknowledged that Goff had faced “bizarre” circumstances the previous week but highlighted his quarterback’s unwavering confidence in himself and the team. “Whatever it was or wasn’t last week – I said this, he didn’t play a bad game. Those circumstances and what went down were just, I mean, it was bizarre,” Campbell said as quoted by SI. “But, I know for him, it’s like, ‘Look whatever it is or isn’t, I’m going to play better.’”
And play better he did.
On Sunday, Goff was nothing short of spectacular, throwing for over 400 yards and four touchdowns while leading the Lions’ high-powered offense to a record-setting performance. Campbell was not surprised by Goff’s ability to rebound, calling him a “stud” and expressing his appreciation for the quarterback’s consistent high-level play.
