First Down: Offensive Breakthrough
Jared Goff and the Detroit offense hit their stride, tallying 389 yards and six touchdowns. Goff was exceptional, completing 18 passes without an incompletion for 292 yards and two touchdowns, leading to a near-perfect passer rating. The run game, led by David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs, added 118 rushing yards, helping Detroit click on all fronts for a complete 60-minute performance.
Second Down: Big Play Jamo
Jameson Williams earned his nickname "Big Play Jamo" with a 70-yard touchdown that swung momentum back in Detroit’s favor after Seattle made the game close. Williams, known for explosive plays, now has five career touchdown catches, all on long gains. He also contributed with impactful blocking, earning praise from the coaching staff.
Third Down: Penalty Issues
Despite the win, Detroit needs to address its penalty problems. The team was flagged 12 times for 101 yards, with rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold struggling with penalties in coverage. While head coach Dan Campbell acknowledged the need for cleanup, he emphasized the importance of maintaining physical play.
Fourth Down: Dynamic Running Duo
Detroit’s running back tandem of Montgomery and Gibbs continues to shine. They combined for 158 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns, with each player contributing heavily in both the run and pass games. Their consistent production has been key to Detroit's early success, marking the first time two Lions players have each logged four touchdowns through the first four games.
This game encapsulated Detroit’s offensive potential, leaving the team confident as they head into their bye week with a 3-1 record.
