Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions are locked in a defensive battle against the Houston Texans, with Goff having thrown five interceptions heading into

Goff came into the game with the second-highest completion percentage (100 attempts minimum) at 74.9% in NFL history through the first eight games of the season. He trails only Drew Brees, who completed 76.3% of his passes for the New Orleans Saints in 2018.

Despite five interceptions from quarterback Jared Goff, the Detroit Lions overcame a 16-point halftime deficit to knock off the Houston Texans 26-23 on "Sunday Night Football."

It wasn't a pretty performance throughout, but the Lions fought from self-inflicted mistakes to stage a 16-point comeback and stun the Texans in a 26-23 victory on Sunday night. The win gives Detroit their seventh straight this season as they remain the only team in the NFL with just one loss.

Even after forcing five interceptions against Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff, the Houston Texans couldn’t get out of their way in the second half. They allowed a 19-0 swing capped off with a 52-yard field goal from Jake Bates to help Detroit secure a 26-23 walk-off comeback.
