NFL News: Lions ride Jared Goff’s perfect game to win over Seahawks

Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Jared Goff completed all 18 of his pass attempts, two for touchdowns, and also scored his first career receiving touchdown as the host Detroit Lions defeated the Seattle Seahawks 42-29 on Monday night.

The 29-year-old quarterback had the most completions ever in an NFL game without an incompletion.

Goff passed for 292 yards, including a 70-yard score to Jameson Williams. Amon-Ra St. Brown threw the scoring pass to Goff and also had a receiving touchdown. Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 78 yards and two touchdowns for the Lions (3-1).

Geno Smith had a career-best 395 passing yards with one touchdown pass and one interception for the Seahawks (3-1). His 38 completions and 56 attempts were both career highs, too.

Seattle’s Kenneth Walker III rushed for 80 yards and three touchdowns and DK Metcalf caught seven passes for 104 yards.

Goff completed 12 passes in the first half as Detroit built a 21-7 lead entering the break.

The Lions scored first with a 12-play, 93-yard drive, capped by David Montgomery’s 1-yard touchdown plunge.

Detroit’s next touchdown was set up by Carlton Davis’ 49-yard return of a Metcalf fumble. Gibbs scored three plays later on a 3-yard run.

The Seahawks responded with a 70-yard scoring drive, capped by Walker’s 1-yard run to cut the deficit to 14-7.

The Lions answered with a 70-yard drive that culminated in Gibbs’ 1-yard touchdown run.

The Seahawks opened the second half with a 75-yard drive that ended with Smith’s 9-yard TD pass to rookie AJ Barner. It was the tight end’s first career touchdown.

Detroit used a trick play to answer that score and take a 28-14 lead. Goff handed the ball to St. Brown on an apparent end around. Instead, Goff rolled to the left and caught a 7-yard scoring pass from the wide receiver.

A 29-yard pass to Tyler Lockett from Smith helped set up Walker’s 1-yard touchdown plunge with 3:03 left in the third quarter. Smith’s two-point conversion pass attempt failed.

It took only one play from scrimmage for Detroit to score again. Goff found an open Williams over the middle, and the third-year receiver raced into the end zone on the 70-yard play for a 35-20 lead.

Walker went for a 21-yard touchdown run on the second play of the fourth quarter.

Goff’s 8-yard touchdown pass to St. Brown with 5:23 left made it 42-27.

Goff was sacked in the end zone for a safety with 2:01 left before Kerby Joseph’s interception with one minute left sealed Detroit’s win.
