Jared Goff Had the Perfect NSFW Description of Lions’ Gutsy Fourth Down Play Call vs. Chargers

The Lions QB nailed it.

Jared Goff and the Lions beat the Chargers, 41–38, in one of Sunday’s best Week 10 games, and they did so in dramatic fashion with a walk-off field goal as time expired. 

The biggest play of the final drive came on fourth-and-2 from the Chargers’ 26-yard line when Dan Campbell and Co. decided to roll the dice and go for it, instead of attempting a field goal with just under two minutes left in the game.

Goff was able to complete a short pass to get the first down, which then allowed Detroit to eat up the rest of the clock before kicking the game-winning field goal. 

The QB had a hilarious description of the guts it took for the coaches to call that play:

The Lions are now 7–2 on the season and are easily one of the most fun teams in the league.
