Goff is a rock star in the Motor City, a pinpoint passer in the midst of a career year for a team laying waste to its opponents. He may have walked into Campbell’s office with trepidation that day 25 months ago, but he emerged with a bounce in his step that has morphed into a strut.

Goff currently ranks second in completion percentage at 73.0 percent, just behind Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa. He leads the NFL in yards per attempt at 9.2, which makes the high completion percentage all the more impressive. The sack rate of 6.25 percent is in the middle of the NFL pack, though Goff has been sacked just once in the last three games.
