STACKED’s take
Goff's elite play-action mastery: 8-of-11, 140 yards, +0.55 EPA vs. Packers
Goff's elite play-action performance against the Packers showcases his exceptional ability to identify coverage disguises pre- and post-snap. On play-action passes against Green Bay, Goff went 8-of-11 for 140 yards with a +0.55 EPA/dropback (third-best of the week) and a 145.1 passer rating (second-best). His process—turning his back to the defense, absorbing pre-snap information, and quickly recalibrating when defenses show different looks post-snap—allows him to exploit coverage weaknesses even against elite pass defenses like the Packers (ranked third in passer rating allowed, third in yards per attempt, second in DVOA). Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing emphasized that Goff's ability to 'calibrate quickly, figure out what's going on and make the proper decision almost every time' is a main reason for his excellence in the play-action game.
