Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is positioned for a productive outing against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. While Week 8 saw a modest 85 passing yards from Goff, Detroit's ground game was the primary scoring method. Over his last three games, Goff has demonstrated impressive efficiency, completing 80% of his passes for 680 yards, eight touchdowns, and zero interceptions, securing his status as a reliable QB1. The Packers' defense ranks 29th in blitz rate and allows one of the league's higher yards per completion, presenting an opportunity for Goff to connect on longer throws. They've also shown vulnerability by conceding the fifth-highest success rate per dropback, making this matchup favorable. With his accuracy and the Lions' overall offensive firepower, Goff remains a strong top-10 QB option this week.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has a banged-up receiving core, making it hard to trust him in a difficult matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. Darius Slay is out for the Eagles, which could mean the secondary is weaker than usual. However, with Christian Kirk out for the season and Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis potentially out, the only certain reliable option for Lawrence this week is Evan Engram. Even Travis Etienne Jr. and Tank Bigsby out of the backfield are questionable. The former top pick is coming off a 308-yard performance against the Green Bay Packers, but it is hard to imagine Lawrence improving on that performance with the surrounding uncertainty. Lawrence can be viewed as a solid QB2 with potential for more if all his weapons play in Week 9.
