How to watch Detroit Lions vs. Carolina Panthers on FOX 2

Jared Goff on Lions win in Green Bay and looking ahead

Dan Miller spoke exclusively with Lions quarterback Jared Goff on Monday to discuss their big road victory against the Packers last week and looking ahead to this week's matchup with the Panthers.

DETROIT (FOX 2) - The NFC North-leading Detroit Lions have a full game up on the second-place Green Bay Packers thanks to the Thursday night win in Green Bay a week ago. Now, they'll look to continue the winning ways with an NFC opponent who torpedoed their playoff hopes a year ago.

Last December, the Lions were rolling as they went into Charlotte after ripping off 6 wins in 7 games. But they ran into the Panthers who ran over them with 570 yards of offense in week 16.

This Sunday, they take on the 0-4 Panthers here in Detroit and they're adding another weapon in wide receiver Jameson Williams whose suspension was shortened to four weeks.

Williams, whose training camp was cut short by a hamstring injury, will probably play sparingly against the Panthers as he gets into game shape and shows he knows where to line up and where to go in the offense.

When the No. 12 pick from the 2022 draft does get on the field, he will likely give QB Jared Goff a deep-play threat as he did for Panthers' QB Bryce Young at Alabama.

"He brings a different element that us and many other teams don’t have in terms of speed and the way he runs down the field," Detroit receivers coach Antwaan Randle El said.

For Goff, he's going to look to put to bed an end to his three-straight games with interceptions, which started with a pick-6 in the Week 2 loss to Seattle, after he went 383 pass attempts without one.

"Those are the ones that really sting," Goff said. "Just got to take care of the ball better. That is something I’m focused on."
