Goff throws for 353 yards, 2 TDs to lead NFC North-leading Lions past sputtering Buccaneers 20-6

Associated Press  

TAMPA, Fla. — Jared Goff and the streaking Detroit Lions keep finding different ways to win. A week after improving on their best start in more than a decade without injured star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, the NFC North leaders used Goff’s arm and a stingy defense to overcome the loss of leading rusher David Montgomery to beat the sputtering Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-6 on Sunday. When your defense only gives up six points it’s saying a lot.” Goff tossed TD passes of 27 yards to Amon-Ra St. Brown and 45 yards to Jameson Williams, converting on third-and-13 in one instance and third-and-10 on the other as Detroit won for the seventh time in eight road games dating to last season. The Lions are a good ball club, but if we play like that we’ll lose every time.” The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! St. Brown, who missed Detroit’s lopsided win over Carolina the previous week due to an abdomen injury, finished with 12 receptions for 124 yards, both season highs.
