Greg Olsen explains how Detroit's offensive scheme has empowered both QB Jared Goff and rookie TE Sam Laporta this season.
), believes that the team's offensive unit is reaching new heights thanks in large part to Goff rising to the occasion.in that trade , they really challenged him to say, ‘Hey, man, if you want to be the quarterback of the future here and not have us look to replace you over the next couple years, you got to improve. You have to challenge yourself,'" Olsen said."I think Jared Goff has not only done that, I think he completely bought in and leaned into it.
"I think LaPorta has shown early signs that he's a guy that will benefit from a great scheme, but he's also having the ability to generate his own opportunities by getting open, and I think that's easier said than done, let alone for a rookie." LaPorta has hauled in 15 balls on 20 targets for 187 yards and three touchdowns over his past three games. As a whole, the Lions are averaging 383.7 total yards and 28.0 points per game.
The Lions have recorded 350-plus net yards and 20-plus points in each of the first six games of the season — something that hasn't happened since 1954. What's more, Detroit has won four straight games by 14 or more points this season for the first time since 1969 and has produced 20 or more points in its past 15 games — the best mark in franchise history.
