46 comments

1. Bucs beating the lions was a fluke we didn't stick to the game plan and paid for it were rightfully undefeated especially seeing their record is about to be significantly worse after they meet w lamar and king henry tonight

2. MVP AS OF TODAY 100% THANKS RAMS HES GOOD ENOUGH FOR DETROIT

3. Bucs fans really think they could take the lions right now..? 😂😂😂

4. If Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen or any of these other media darlings were putting up half the stats Goff has this year we would hear about it non stop every day. Put some fucking respect on Jared Goff’s name.

5. Baker Mayfield is good but he's not Jared Goff good. Come on people, anyone can see that. That shouldn't have to have any kind of explanation attached to it. Of course he's league MVP if he finishes out the season playing like he is at the moment. Duh.

6. ITS CALLED THE GOFFENSE AND IT FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

7. Have you asked Tampon Tim about this Rich?

8. Watch him cap for Aaron instead of actually talking about Goff.

9. Jared either is 30 or turning 30 this year … he's still young and if u look at Qbs in nfl history alot of them hit their stride at or after 30 years of age. He's hitting his sweet spot

10. That's controversial…

11. ill buy it, but there is still a lot of football to play

12. GOFFENSE

13. He's not a 'sexy' pick but noone can argue with you Rich.

14. Tampa fans should agree with you, yes the Buccaneers came to town and won the game but even they have to realize and respect what Goff has been doing over the last 4 games it's been extraordinary . Baker has revived his career in Tampa much like Goff in Detroit he is a fighter tough , plays hard and is the leader of their team. He checks all the boxes now. His maturity forced through adversity is the way I put it. We will probably see them again in the post season and it will be a great game most likely . As a Lions fan Jared at least needs consideration but Lamar and Patrick and Josh are certainly in the running and Baker and Sam Darnold too why not still a lot of ball left to play things will be much clearer by game 17 for sure.

15. It looks like that trade is looking better and better by the throws! And I was rooting for Sammy D and the Vikings as a Charger fan I say is no overreaction at all!!!

16. Goff is disproving the criticisms that he 1) cannot throw under pressure and 2) cannot throw deep. He faced frequent pressure yesterday due to subpar play by Awosika, Glasgow, and Decker. He has shown with Jamo and Patrick that he can throw deep. He appears this year to be that cerebral QB who is performing like Detroit has an offensive coordinator on the field. Let's enjoy the this dying breed a pure pocket passer because the League is pivoting to "athletes" who can run, extend plays, and throw off-platform.

17. This was my take yesterday!!! Glad I'm not alone.

18. PREACH!

19. Dan Campbell beat the lions in week two not Tampa by his mis management of time outs and time at halftime when they could have taken a chip shot field goal from the 8 yard line. And then could have kicked a field goal at the end of the game to tie the score Instead of being forced to go for a touchdown

20. Let’s award an MVP/MVPs to the defense – Brian Branch & Kerby Joseph.

21. Fun fact the entire nfc north are pretenders

22. In last 4 weeks, Lions offensive TD'S: 18. Lions incompletions:16. That has NEVER happened before. And it's not dink and dunk. Lions have most explosive pass plays in NFL AND Goff averaging over 11 yards per attempt; nobody else in league over 9 yards. Goff is just 🔥🔥🔥 right now.

23. Are the lions really gonna win the super bowl before gta 6?

24. The fact the rest of the networks haven't even mentioned Goff as an MVP candidate tells me all I need to know about their lack of knowledge in the league. They know 3 names: Mahomes, Allen, and LJ. Thats all they parrot, every day. They completely neglect the fact Goff has been a constant top 5 QB for over 2 years now.

25. Anyone who looked at the stats knows Goff is excellent at picking up blitzes..yet the Vikes blitzed 55% of the time anyway…i dunno..i guess thats why they get paid a lot to coach🙄

26. we gave them 14 points on a silver platter – lions never looked back from 14- 10 – this was not as close as the score – lions are clearly the better team even after we lost the probable defense player of the year – when we get defense end help we will be scary good – the only reason we have 1 loss is our offence is complicated – it took a little fine tuning – it is only getting better – your little bubble just burst – after that fumble td most teams would have folded on the road – we stopped you when we had to and drove down for the winning fg – this is what champions do – Superbowl champions

27. The last four games, the Lions have more TDs than Goff has incompletions. That's insane

28. Massive Bucs fan here, but the Lions are the best team in the NFC followed by the Vikings and my Bucs.

29. The “real fans” hate Goff because the man is humble, his wife is a drop dead gorgeous 11, and humble. MCDC. I hoped he would be a good coach, he is. Add Shiela, Brad and Chris, they all elevate leadership and the team. Never dreamed the Lions could be steady and good. One Pride.

30. We laid a egg in the red zone against Tampa. But they fixed it. You don’t go 1-7 in the red zone. The best thing that ever happened for Detroit is getting JG. He’s a bad man. He doesn’t look it but he is.

31. Goff standing in delivering that ball like Tom Brady. He’s not Brady just the way he knows who to pass to with the correct pass all game.

32. Tampa Bay fans. If my Lions play yal again it's gon be trouble trouble in my Bernie Mac voice from Players club

33. Rich is spot on. If Goff is not at the top of your MVP board there's something wrong with you.

34. Goff throws absolute dots. He’s elite

35. you guys said at chicago is the only one that might be bad conditions, but you left out that at green bay might be bad weather too.

36. Rich is correct

37. Jared Goff been in total grit mode. Quickly down 10 points on Sunday after a messy start, and he quickly found grace and led the team to strike back with force.

38. If goff wins a sb and plays at this elite level for 5 more years is he a HOF

39. JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF!!!

40. So when are you gonna have JD Vance on yours show, Rich? To be fair.

41. Jared Goff is playing super saiyan quarterback

42. GOFF!!!!!

43. In your face McVay!

44. These icy hot commercials are getting out of hand.

45. If the NFL does this right they will set this up to be a rematch in the NFC Championship game.

46. Detroit O-Line MVP
