The Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers are meeting Sunday with first place on the line in the NFC North. With Week 9 serving as the official halfway point of the NFL season, this matchup is one of the most pivotal up to this point.

A big reason for Detroit's 6-1 start to the season has been quarterback Jared Goff, who has been playing at an MVP caliber level to start the campaign. Through seven games, Goff has thrown for 1,695 yards, 13 touchdowns and four interceptions.

Goff has become one of, if not the, most popular figures in Detroit sports, with chants of his name breaking out at various venues and events. His journey from being cast aside to becoming the Lions' franchise quarterback has been one that is well documented and relatable to fans who are familiar with overcoming adversity.

"I think a lot of my journey, a lot of these fans can relate to," Goff said in an interview with NFL Network's Kyle Brandt. "It's such a wild thing to experience, not only at games but all over the place. We've got the best fans in the world, and it's something I'll look back on years from now and realize how wild and cool it's been. I love playing for them and hopefully we can keep making them cheer and have some fun."
