Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 20 of 29 passes for 241 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding two rushes for seven yards in Monday night's 24-9 win over Tampa Bay. He also took four sacks for a loss of 26 yards and lost a fumble. Outside of a few mistakes, Goff once again distributed the ball effectively to his elite group of weapons, connecting with Amon-Ra St. Brown for a 27-yard touchdown in the first quarter and connecting with the explosive Jahmyr Gibbs three times for 82 yards. In a game where the ground game averaged over five yards per carry and Detroit's defense dominated Baker Mayfield, the Lions didn't need to throw the ball a lot. With the ground game averaging over five yards per carry and Detroit's defense stifling Baker Mayfield, the Lions didn't need to rely heavily on the passing attack. Goff and the Lions will ride into their Week 8 bye on a positive note.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had a monster game before the team's bye week, but he struggled against the Seahawks on Monday night and will be without key pass-catchers in Week 8. Both Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) are out, so Stroud will be forced to be creative and rely on less proven options. The Texans' offense looked to be headed the right way before their bye week, and Stroud racked up six touchdown passes and no interceptions in big wins over the Titans and Ravens. In his return after 15 days off, though, he completed just 23-of-49 pass attempts for 229 yards, a touchdown, and an interception on the road in Seattle. He'll look to get back on track against a tough San Francisco defense that ranks in the middle of the pack against quarterbacks but effectively shut down the Falcons and Michael Penix Jr. last week. In this home matchup, Stroud is the No. 21 QB in RotoBaller's rankings, meaning he shouldn't be started in single-quarterback leagues and is a fringe QB2 in this matchup.
