Detroit Lions QB Jared Goff has one problem with the local media
The Detroit Lions have turned things around in a big way in recent years, with two winning seasons in a row and a trip to the NFC Championship Game — and quarterback Jared Goff has no doubt had a big hand in all of that.
But despite the turn around, Goff believes the local media members in Detroit are too negative and he wants them to stop acting like the Lions are still the underdog they’ve been for so many years.
“I have this like, I probably need to drop it pretty soon here because I’m hopefully gonna be in Detroit for a long time, but I have this thing with our local media where like they almost like relish in negativity at times,” Goff said on the Wilbo Trading Cards podcast, according to Mike Payton of AtoZ Sports. “And maybe that’s what gets clicked and that’s what sells, but it’s no longer what they need to live in. Like, hey guys, we have a good team. We’ve had success. We can be happy about that we can celebrate that and not have to write about how we’re constantly the underdog. No, teams are gonna be gunning for us now. We won the division and all that. I’m probably overthinking it in my head and it’s the chip on my shoulder and the competitor in me.”
Goff’s comments certainly aren’t going to do him any favors with the local media, but none of that will matter if the Lions continue on their current trajectory and finally capture the Super Bowl that has eluded the franchise.
