On the television broadcast, rules analyst Terry McCauley quickly informed viewers, "He (Goff) takes a position behind the center. He’s got to step back and pause for a second and establish as a back before he goes in motion. He didn’t. He stayed in motion. This is illegal. This is an illegal formation.”

The Detroit Lions had a touchdown taken off the board in the first quarter after a trick play led to a touchdown catch for quarterback Jared Goff.

And then the fun ended. After discussing the play officials called the Lions for an illegal motion penalty. It was explained on the NBC broadcast that after Goff went under center, he had to take a step back and pause before going in motion. He didn't do that, and the penalty flag was thrown.

Sports personality Colin Cowherd gave a very strong statement about how Lions quarterback Jared Goff's career has progressed.

Detroit Lions star Jared Goff is the only NFL quarterback to have played in the maximum 55 regular-season games since the start of 2022.

It’s been quite the year for Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and his wife, Christen Harper Goff. That has been the case on and off the field. Goff, the signal caller for the Lions, has become the leader of one of the top offenses in the NFC. Despite that, the highlight of their year came this offseason with the birth of their first child.
