So sad:Lions quarterback jared Goff cries out on False media negativity on ..

The Detroit Lions are experiencing a shift from their traditional narrative of struggles. After years of disappointment, the Lions clinched a playoff spot last season for the first time since 2016, 

 

 

boasting one of the NFL’s most promising young rosters led by quarterback Jared Goff. Despite the positive atmosphere

permeating much of Detroit, Goff believes that the local media should ease up on the negativity.

Speaking on the Willbo Trading Cards podcast, the starting QB expressed his frustration with the tendency of the local media to dwell on negativity. Goff

acknowledged that sensationalizing negativity might attract attention and clicks, but he believes it’s time for a change in narrative. He emphasized that

the Lions have a talented team and have tasted success, urging the media to focus on celebrating achievements rather than perpetuating an underdog mentality.

With the Lions now a target for opposing teams after winning their division, Goff believes it’s time for a more positive outlook moving forward.

Goff later tempered his remarks by acknowledging, “I’m probably overthinking it in my head, fueled by my competitive nature and the chip on my shoulder.”

Whether Goff’s concerns about the Detroit media’s negativity are valid or not, both perspectives can be understood from an outsider’s viewpoint.

On one hand, the team’s impressive 12-5 record this season and their division win for the first time since 1993 are undeniable achievements. Additionally,

the Lions boast a roster filled with promising young talents such as Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, and Aidan Hutchinson, all aged

24 and under. With the guidance of the inspirational coach Dan Campbell and the reliable quarterback Jared Goff, coupled with the offensive expertise of

Ben Johnson, who turned down head coaching opportunities to stay in Detroit, the team is poised for a bright future.

 

On the other hand, the Detroit media likely has a deep understanding of the team’s history of disappointment, despite

the presence of iconic figures like Barry Sanders, Calvin Johnson, or Matthew Stafford. Even with star players, the

Lions have often fallen short of expectations, leading to the skepticism and cynicism that permeate the coverage from local media outlets.

Following their NFL championship win in 1957, the Detroit Lions endured a lengthy postseason drought, only

returning to the playoffs in 1970 and then again in 1982. Despite a promising streak of six playoff appearances in the

1990s, their performance since 2000 has been lackluster, with a record of 143-242-2 and just three playoff appearances prior to the most recent one.

The Lions’ history of underachievement in the NFL is well-documented, and the media is keenly aware of this fact. While the current team shows promise, it’s understandable that reporters covering

the franchise are hesitant to tout Super Bowl aspirations just yet. For Goff and his teammates, sustaining success will be key to changing the prevailing sentiment.

Another strong season next year will be necessary to shift perceptions and earn the trust and confidence of both the media and the fanbase.
