Jared Goff has navigated his team dexterously this season. Amidst this, critics have made mean comments about the QB. When Goff was initially acquired in the Matthew Stafford trade, people said all sorts of things as they underestimated him. People assumed that the Lions would soon get another QB in his place. When asked about this in his Tuesday interview after the Lions’ practice, Goff couldn’t care less. “There’s still going to be some and there will always be even if I’m playing great, if I’m playing poorly, there’ll always be haters and lovers, and ignore them all and keep trying to get better.” said the QB.
