Jared Goff continued his stellar season with another remarkable performance on Thursday night against the Green Bay Packers, further solidifying his MVP-caliber campaign. Despite a tough outing in Week 10 against the Houston Texans, Goff has been exceptional for most of the year, showcasing remarkable efficiency that’s almost unheard of in NFL history.

In the game against the Packers, Goff completed 32 of 41 passes for 283 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception, posting a 109.7 passer rating and a 90.9 QBR. He even contributed with a couple of key runs when needed. He spread the ball around well, hitting six different receivers for receptions, though two of his touchdown passes went to Tim Patrick, much to the dismay of Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta fantasy owners. The other touchdown was caught by Jahmyr Gibbs.

Here’s how the targets fared for the Lions in the game:

Tim Patrick: 6 catches, 43 yards

Jahmyr Gibbs (RB): 6 catches, 30 yards

Jameson Williams (WR): 5 catches, 80 yards

Sam LaPorta (TE): 5 catches, 54 yards

Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR): 5 catches, 43 yards

David Montgomery (RB): 5 catches, 33 yards

Brock Wright (TE): 0 catches, 1 target

In terms of historical milestones, Goff achieved a significant feat on Thursday. He became the first quarterback in NFL history to complete passes to at least six different receivers in a game, with every receiver catching at least five passes. This unique accomplishment further highlights his versatility and exceptional performance this season.
