What you need to know about Lions
Detroit lost 28-25 to the Buffalo Bills last week. Detroit’s loss came despite a quality game from WR Amon-Ra St. Brown, who caught nine passes for a touchdown and 122 yards.
The Lions have taken big steps forward in 2022 and have won three of their last four games. Detroit has had issues defensively, but its offense is capable of racking up massive numbers on any Sunday. Veteran quarterback Jared Goff has been solid this season, completing 232 of 364 passes for 2,682 yards, 17 touchdowns, seven interceptions and a 93.5 quarterback rating.
What you need to know about Jaguars
Lawrence made big improvements in his first year under new Jacksonville head coach Doug Pederson. The former Clemson star completed 256 of 385 passes for 2,655 yards, 16 touchdowns, six interceptions and a 93.6 quarterback rating in his second NFL season and seems to be adapting to the speed of the game at the professional level.
Lawrence has a great opportunity to have a huge game this week against a struggling Detroit secondary. The Lions are giving up 28.2 points per game (league-worst) and they’re giving up 271.7 yards per game through the air. Lawrence is coming off a 321-yard, three-touchdown performance against Baltimore and could replicate those numbers against the Lions on Sunday.
