Should I Start Jared Goff?

Saturday, November 14, 5:04 AM

Across eight games in 2026, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has completed 67.8% of his pass attempts for 2,134 yards, 15 touchdowns, and two interceptions. While Goff's numbers for the year remain strong, he's recorded back-to-back weeks with fewer than 180 passing yards and an interception. In Week 10, the 32-year-old will have a chance to bounce back against the New England Patriots. New England has struggled to defend the pass so far this season, ranking 25th in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.9). The Pats have been much better defending the run, which could force Detroit to turn to the air a bit more than they have in recent weeks. Goff has only thrown 25 passes in each of his last two games, which is partially responsible for his decline in production. Goff profiles as a low-end top-12 quarterback for fantasy managers in Week 10.
