Everything Jared Goff Said After Lions Beat Colts

On the team running the ball so much on third down:

“Well yeah, I think in those situations, we're typically thinking that we're going to go for it on fourth down anyways. So, we were feeling pretty confident they were going to call one of their third down calls, and our run should be pretty good. At the very least, we’ll get into fourth-and-short and go for it. It gives us a chance to do exactly what we did, where you can pop a run for 15-plus yards. It's rare to be able to do that and have two backs that can kind of do that.”

On what fuels the confidence for going for it on fourth down:

“When he calls that play, I'm pretty sure. Now, if we go negative and it's a negative run, we'll kick a field goal, but when he calls a run in that situation, I think we all kind of know, ‘All right, we’ve got two downs.’ It becomes almost second-and-eight in our head instead of third-and-eight. We just play it like that.”

On motivation for winning on the road:

“We come together on the road. We're road warriors. And Dan (Campbell) said it in there, he was talking about all the way back to the first road game we won here, which was at Chicago in ‘22 I believe because we didn’t win one the whole first year. And since then, I think he said we're 16-5 since then, which is so dang impressive. We are road warriors. We love it. We come together on the road. We are us against the world mentality. And then like you said, it's fun when we can get our own fans here. The way they show out, it's really unbelievable. They do a hell of a job.”

On whether or not fans chanting his name on the road:

“It's pretty dang cool on the road, regardless of them doing my chant or anything like that. It's awesome to have a fan base that travels and makes a difference on the road. I was thinking about this recently. Our fans don't just go to the game, they go to the game to affect the game. They certainly do that at home, and then even today on the road. I go back to Houston and Arizona, like they show up to change the game, to affect the game, and they take it on themselves and we love it. We love it. The love they show me and the love they show our team is something I'll never take for granted.”
