After a difficult outing in Week 12, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff stepped up and took full responsibility for the struggles of his star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, who had arguably his worst game of the season. Despite Amon-Ra’s talent and effort, miscommunications, timing issues, and missed opportunities left him underperforming — and Goff didn’t shy away from acknowledging it.
“It’s on me,” Goff said after the game. “I didn’t put him in the best position to make plays today. I take full responsibility. That’s on me as the quarterback.”
Fans and analysts quickly took notice of Goff’s candid admission, praising the veteran signal-caller for owning the missteps rather than deflecting blame. Detroit may have struggled offensively in the outing, but the moment also highlighted the leadership and accountability that Goff brings to the locker room.
With the season still in full swing, Lions fans are hopeful that this honest reflection will fuel stronger chemistry between Goff and Amon-Ra in upcoming matchups. The message is clear: Detroit may stumble, but the team’s core leaders are ready to adjust, improve, and fight back.
