Goff faces elite Jets defense: 2nd in yards/play, 2nd-stingiest on third down (23.8%).

Goff will face a Jets defense ranked second in yards per play allowed (4.0), tied for fourth in EPA/play (-0.25), ninth in success rate (39.4%), and third in defensive DVOA (-29.7%). The Jets defense has been particularly stout on early-down plays from under center, holding opponents to 3.48 yards per play across 25 such snaps with -0.40 EPA/play (1st) and 32.0% offensive success rate (2nd). On third down, the Jets allow only a 23.8% conversion rate (2nd-stingiest in NFL) and get off the snap with a league-leading 0.63-second average pass-rush get-off. The Lions will need to win on early downs and manage third downs against this disciplined defense.
