Jared Goff passed for a season-high 412 yards and four touchdowns and the Detroit Lions stretched their winning streak to eight games by pounding the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars 52-6 on Sunday.
The winning streak is the longest for the Lions (9-1) in the Super Bowl era. Sunday's 46-point victory was also Detroit's most lopsided win in franchise history. Goff bounced back from a five-interception outing against Houston as the Lions scored touchdowns on their first seven possessions.
Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 11 passes for 161 yards and scored two touchdowns, his eighth consecutive game with a touchdown. Jameson Williams caught four passes for 124 yards, including a 64-yard touchdown.
David Montgomery rushed for 75 yards and two touchdowns, and Jahmyr Gibbs added 69 rushing yards and a touchdown as Detroit gained 645 yards.
The Jaguars (2-9) have lost four straight. Mac Jones passed for 138 yards and was intercepted once as No. 1 quarterback Trevor Lawrence missed his second straight game with a shoulder injury.
The Lions gained 306 yards in the first half while rolling to a 28-6 halftime lead.
The Jaguars scored on their first possession, as Cam Little blasted a 59-yard field goal. The Lions answered with a 70-yard drive, capped by Montgomery's 2-yard TD run.
Detroit extended its lead with a 13-play, 93-yard drive that Gibbs completed by cutting to his left on a 1-yard run.
The Lions' next scoring drive covered 64 yards. Montgomery finished it off by powering up the middle from 6 yards out.
Gibbs had a 54-yard catch and run on Detroit's fourth possession. That led to Goff's third-down, 27-yard scoring strike to St. Brown.
Little kicked a 35-yard field goal on the final play of the half.
It took just 2:05 into the second half for the Lions to score again. Goff zipped a pass over the middle and Williams snared it, then cut to the right on the 64-yard touchdown.
Detroit's sixth touchdown drive lasted 14 plays and 83 yards. Goff hit tight end Brock Wright on a 5-yard scoring pass to make it 42-6.
Goff's fourth and final touchdown pass came early in the fourth quarter, a 9-yard hookup with St. Brown. Jake Bates added a 54-yard field goal.
