Fans of the Detroit Lions have been talking about how much the uniform fades into the end zone at Ford Field after Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford fired another poor pass that led to a turnover.
During Detroit’s home opener, Kerby Joseph managed to intercept the seasoned signal-caller. The skillful safety might have escaped Stafford’s notice, in part because of Detroit’s uniform color scheme.
Lions quarterback Jared Goff was asked to comment on the widely held belief that the uniform wa designed to blend in with the end zone in order to help Detroit’s defense during his appearance on 97.1 The Ticket.
“You know, I’m not sure. Sure,” remarked Goff. “I would elaborate by asking if it matches the wall beyond.
In overtime, Detroit’s offense was able to take advantage of a fatigued Rams defense.
Ben Johnson had an easier time calling plays after David Montgomery ran well in the extra period. They decided to go behind their strong offensive line and rush the football.
Most likely during the run that was sort of dragged to the one-yard line. Everyone pulled the mound down to the one-yard line, which was there. At that time, I felt very confident about our chances of scoring there,” Goff remarked. With the manner we were running the ball, it was first-and-goal on the one. Yes, it was most likely the case.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, whom the Detroit Lions defeated in the postseason, will be Detroit’s next opponent.
