Goff completed 23 of 32 passes for 320 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Lions' 30-20 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Lions treated the regular-season finale as a normal game in terms of personnel usage, and Goff was a beneficiary in the form of his fifth 300-yard game of the campaign. The veteran signal-caller honed in on Amon-Ra St. Brown as usual, connecting with his top target for on seven occasions for 144 yards, including a 70-yard touchdown pass. Goff also hit Sam LaPorta (knee) for a two-yard touchdown toss to open the scoring in the first quarter, and he finishes the season with the second-highest touchdown total of his career (30). The Lions will be either the No. 2 or No. 3 seed in the NFC, depending on the outcome of the Cowboys' and Eagles' games in the late window.

Goff completed 19 of 34 passes for 271 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the Lions' 20-19 loss to the Cowboys on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
As his final line implies, Goff had an inconsistent night that saw him hit on some sizable completions but also make his fair share of poor or inaccurate throws. On the bright side, Goff recorded completions of 23, 25 and 63 yards to Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta and Jameson Williams, respectively. He was also able to lead a last-minute drive that culminated in an 11-yard touchdown pass to St. Brown that put the Lions within a point before a go-ahead two-point conversion pass to offensive lineman Taylor Decker was nullified by penalty. On the other hand, Goff's first interception came in Cowboys territory, while the second one unfolded on the Lions' 26-yard line with 2:05 remaining and led to what would prove to be a game-winning field goal for Dallas. Goff did extend his touchdown streak to nine games, but he's now thrown four picks in the last three contests. Goff and the Lions close out the regular season against the Vikings at home on Jan. 7.

Goff completed 30 of 40 pass attempts for 257 yards with one touchdown during Sunday's 30-24 win over the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
Handling Minnesota's blitz-heavy defense without many problems, Goff completed 75 percent of his passes and could have had a much bigger game had Detroit not pounded in three touchdowns via rushing plays. Nonetheless, Goff has helped Detroit secure a division title for the first time in 30 years and notch the team's first since the division was remapped from the NFC Central to the NFC North in 2002. The Lions now aim to fight for playoff positioning starting with an important Week 17 showdown against Dallas.

Goff completed 24 of 34 passes for 278 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions in Saturday's 42-17 win over the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
Goff entered the game in something of a slump, as he had multiple turnovers in three of his last four matchups with the Lions going only 2-2 in that span. Those concerns ended in spectacular fashion, as he matched his career high with five touchdown passes in a game and also didn't turn the ball over. Goff's scores came primarily from short range -- his longest was 19 yards -- but he still completed seven passes of at least 20 yards, good for a season-high. While this was an impressive performance, Goff's career has been marked by inefficiency, so there's no guarantee he'll come close to matching this effort in Week 16 against the Vikings.

Goff completed 20 of 35 passes for 161 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Goff turned in a decent first half, the highlight of which came on an eight-yard touchdown pass to Josh Reynolds just prior to halftime. Things fell apart from there, however, as he managed only 68 passing yards on 19 attempts in the final two quarters as the Bears pulled away. The performance ended a four-game streak in which Goff had thrown for multiple touchdowns and also marked the first time that he's failed to throw for 200 yards in a matchup this season. He'll face a Denver defense in Week 15 that has not allowed a quarterback to throw for multiple touchdowns in six consecutive games.

Goff completed 16 of 25 passes for 213 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while netting minus-2 yards on two rush attempts in the Lions' 33-28 win over the Saints on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Goff had one of his quieter days in a game that had a somewhat unlikely flow to it, with Detroit seeing a big early lead evaporate and doing very little scoring after a 21-point first quarter. Goff was especially effective in that opening period, hitting Sam LaPorta and Amon-Ra St. Brown for touchdown tosses of 13 and 25 yards, respectively. Goff did extend his streak of games with two touchdowns to four, and he's gone interception-free in three contests over that span heading into a Week 14 road divisional matchup against the Bears.

Goff completed 29 of 44 passes for 332 yards with two touchdowns while adding nine rushing yards on three carries with three lost fumbles during Thursday's 29-22 loss to the Packers. He also completed a pass for a two-point conversion.
EDGE Analysis
Entering the contest sitting fifth in passing yards per game (274.3), Goff put together another respectable outing from a statistical perspective while recording his third straight game with multiple passing touchdowns. However, an onslaught of miscues proved too much to overcome for the NFC North leaders, as Goff took three sacks, went 1-for-6 on fourth down, and fumbled three times -- one of which was returned by Green Bay for a touchdown in a one-score game. The entire offense will look for a bounce-back effort during a Week 13 matchup on the road against the Saints.

Goff completed 23 of 35 passes for 236 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Bears. He added three yards on two rushing attempts.
EDGE Analysis
Goff was picked off on Detroit's first two drives, but the Lions got into the end zone on their next two possessions, the latter of which was capped with a seven-yard Goff touchdown pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown to put Detroit ahead 14-10. After throwing a third interception in the third quarter, Goff helped the Lions score the final 17 points of the fourth to pull out the win and improve to 8-2. Goff will look to clean up the turnovers at home against the Packers on Thanksgiving.

Goff completed 23 of 33 passes for 333 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 41-38 win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
The Lions scored three rushing TDs in the first half, but Goff opened things up after halftime, hitting Amon-Ra St. Brown for a 20-yard score in the third quarter and Brock Wright for a 25-yard touchdown midway through the fourth. It's the first time Goff has tossed multiple scores since Week 6, but the 29-year-old QB is now on pace for a new career high in passing yards with 2,507 through nine games. He could be poised for another big performance Week 11 at home against the Bears.

Goff completed 26 of 37 passes for 272 yards with one touchdown and one interception and rushed twice for minus-2 yards in the Lions' 26-14 win over the Raiders on Monday night.
EDGE Analysis
Goff racked up 256 yards through three quarters before slowing down in the fourth, but he impressively spread the ball around to eight different targets on the night. The fact top receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was able to overcome an illness to play was naturally a major benefit to the veteran quarterback, who connected with the talented wideout on six occasions for 108 yards. Goff has thrown for at least Monday's yardage total in three straight games, giving him some solid momentum heading into a Week 10 showdown against Justin Herbert and the Chargers following a Week 9 bye.
