Jared Goff leads Lions to 45-21 victory against Cardinals

Jared Goff threw three touchdown passes and Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 151 yards with two touchdowns as the Detroit Lions defeated the Arizona Cardinals 45-21 on October 11. After a slow start, the Lions scored 31 consecutive points, including three touchdowns before halftime. Arizona initially led 7-0 but struggled offensively, with five straight three-and-out drives in the first half. The loss marked the Cardinals' ninth consecutive defeat at home. Goff completed 19 of 30 passes for 279 yards and also ran for a touchdown, while Jacoby Brissett threw for three touchdowns but also had an interception. The Cardinals' Marvin Harrison Jr. was traded to the Houston Texans shortly after the game began.
