Jameson Williams hauled in a 9-yard touchdown from Jared Goff, pushing the Lions’ lead over the Cardinals to a dominant 31-7. This wasn’t just any score, though. It was Williams’ second receiving touchdown of the day, marking the first time in his career he’s hit that elusive multi-TD game.
Williams Finally Breaks Out
Talk about a coming-out party! Williams absolutely lit up the field for Detroit. He’s got just two catches on Sunday, but those two catches went for a combined 47 yards and, more importantly, *both* hit paydirt. That kind of efficiency is exactly what Lions fans have been waiting for. Jared Goff was on fire too, connecting on 14 of 22 passes for 188 yards and three touchdowns so far in this one. That Goff-Williams connection looked legit, carving up the Cardinals’ secondary when it mattered most.
Arizona’s Desert Disaster
Let’s be real, this game has been a clinic for Detroit since the first quarter. After giving up an early touchdown, the Lions completely slammed the door shut, outscoring Arizona a staggering 31-0. The Cardinals had a chance to put some points on the board early in the second half, but Chad Ryland shanked a 53-yard field goal wide right. You just can’t miss those when you’re trying to dig out of a hole like that! Adding insult to injury, the Lions lost receiver Tom Kennedy (knee) and linebacker Devin White (forearm) to injuries, both ruled out. Arizona also saw safety Wydett Williams leave the game with a concussion and get ruled out.
Man, with the Lions absolutely cruising at 31-7, and Williams finally exploding like that, you gotta wonder what Arizona even does now. Missing that 53-yarder just poured salt in the wound after Detroit went on a 31-0 tear. It’s a rough day in the desert for the Cardinals, no doubt.
