Goffs Struggles Against Patriots Ahead of Germany Game

New Delhi, November 15: Lions quarterback Jared Goff has a career record of 101-67-1 as a starter, translating to a 59.7-percent win rate. However, his performance against the Patriots has been less impressive, with a record of 1-3, which gives him a win rate of just 25 percent.

In the four games he has played against the Patriots, Goff has thrown two touchdown passes while also recording five interceptions. This Sunday’s matchup in Germany marks the first time Goff will face a Patriots coach other than Bill Belichick, as he has never competed against the current head coach, Mike Vrabel. During Goff’s tenure as a starter with the Rams and Lions, and Vrabel’s time with the Titans, their teams did not meet.

Goff’s initial loss to New England occurred in 2016 during his third career start, where the Patriots triumphed 26-10. Two years later, Goff faced the Patriots again in the Super Bowl, where New England won 13-3. In 2020, Goff and the Rams managed to defeat the Patriots 24-3, but in 2022, the Patriots shut out Goff and the Lions with a score of 29-0.

This upcoming game is crucial for both teams. The Lions, with a record of 6-2, are in a tightly contested NFC North division, while the Patriots, sitting at 5-4, are struggling in the AFC East and need to secure a wild-card spot.
