Who Should I Start? Jared Goff or Trevor Lawrence

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had a long day when his team took on the Los Angeles Rams, completing just 23 of 48 passing attempts for 296 yards and one touchdown. He also ran twice for 18 yards. While Lawrence finished with more than 300 total yards, it was an ugly day for the Jags' offense in general and the quarterback specifically. Jacksonville was behind 21-0 at halftime and never really in the game. By the end of the day, Lawrence had been sacked seven times and missed on a few eyebrow-raising throws. The Jags will take a much-needed break next week before returning to the field in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
