Jared Goff Fantasy

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw for 240 yards and two touchdowns to zero interceptions in the close loss to the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving. The Lions offense continued to look strong against a daunting Buffalo defense, and Goff delivered as a solid fantasy starter this week. Detroit will host the Jacksonville Jaguars next Sunday, so he could be in play for another solid fantasy performance in Week 13. Rookie wideout Jameson Williams (knee) might make his NFL debut in that game, so Goff's ceiling could be raised even more.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has a wide range of outcomes against the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving. The Bills' defense has been a top-six unit against fantasy quarterbacks this season, but if this game gets ugly as expected, Detroit will be forced into a pass-only game script. By pure volume, Goff can pay off in fantasy, even if a lot of his production comes in garbage time. Last week, Jacoby Brissett threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns against Buffalo in come-from-behind mode, so there's a path to fantasy success here. Goff's floor has proven to be low, though, so he's a boom-or-bust Week 12 option at quarterback.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 17 of his 26 passing attempts for 165 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions in the 31-18 win over the New York Giants. Jamaal Williams and D'Andre Swift combined for four rushing touchdowns, so Goff simply fell victim to not being on the right side of the play calls in the red zone for fantasy managers. Goff's floor has been low all season, but his ceiling might be high against the Buffalo Bills next week, where he'll likely be forced into a pass-happy game script.
