Goff: Panthers win shows Lions 'becoming a more mature team'

DETROIT -- The Detroit Lions refused to let their foot off the gas in Sunday's dominant 42-24 win against the winless Carolina Panthers at Ford Field.

Without leading receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) and rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring), the Lions took control from start to finish to give them their first 4-1 start since 2011.

“Just like I told them, I’m not worried about the opponents that you can see eye to eye because I believe we can compete with anybody and beat anybody,” coach Dan Campbell said he told his team.
