The Detroit Lions didn’t just win in Week 10 — they made a statement. After weeks of up-and-down performances, Dan Campbell’s squad finally looked like the team fans expected to see. And if you look beyond the scoreboard, the stats tell an even more powerful story of dominance, execution, and growth.
Let’s dig into five stats that stood out from the Lions’ big win:
1. 320 passing yards from Jared Goff – The veteran QB was in total control, carving up Washington’s secondary and showing poise under pressure. It was one of his sharpest outings of the season.
2. 3 touchdowns through the air – Goff spread the ball around beautifully, connecting with Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams in rhythm — a glimpse of how dangerous Detroit’s offense can be when it’s clicking.
3. Zero turnovers – After turnover troubles in recent weeks, the Lions cleaned it up. Ball security and smart decision-making were major keys to victory.
4. Five sacks by Detroit’s defense – Aidan Hutchinson and the defensive front were relentless. The Commanders’ offensive line had no answers for the Lions’ pass rush.
5. Over 7 yards per play in the second half – When it mattered most, Detroit’s offense exploded. The rhythm, tempo, and play-calling all came together — and it showed on the field.
This performance wasn’t just a bounce-back — it was a statement game. The Lions looked like the NFC contender fans have been waiting for, and if these trends continue, Detroit could be hitting its stride at just the right time in the season.
