Jared Goff Stays Hot In Week 7 Win

Jared Goff Headshot

Lions QB Jared Goff was nearly perfect in the Week 7 win over the Vikings, completing 22 of 25 passes (88%) for 280 yards (11.2 YPA), two TDs, and 0 INTs. That included clutch passes for RB Jahmyr Gibbs for 16 yards and WR Amon-Ra St. Brown for 14 yards on a game-winning FG drive. The performance was more impressive when you consider that Minnesota entered this one ranked first in pass defense DVOA and eighth in adjusted fantasy points allowed to QBs. Goff is just the second QB this season to throw more TDs than INTs against the Vikings.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Goff is playing as well as any QB in the league right now. His numbers over the last four games:

  • 87% completion rate
  • 11.9 yards per attempt
  • 9 TDs
  • 1 INT

Goff has finished as a top-10 fantasy QB in each of his last three outings.

A run-leaning Lions offense remains an issue for Goff's fantasy value, but he's playing too well to not be considered at least a low-end QB1 going forward.

There's nothing to worry about on the upcoming schedule. Goff gets neutral matchups the next two weeks against the Titans and Packers before three straight positive draws vs. the Texans, Jaguars, and Colts. It's the second-easiest QB schedule from Weeks 8 through 12.
