Jared Goff led the Detroit Lions to a dominant 34-20 win over the Green Bay Packers Thursday night before clapping back at some pregame comments. 

Prior to the game, analyst and former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick referred to Goff as "a poor man’s Matt Ryan," according to the New York Post.

"I thought I played better throughout the rest of the game," Goff said. "I hope it’s up to your standards." 

"I didn’t know I was a poor man’s anything, but it’s OK," Goff continued as the NFL on Prime crew laughed. "I heard about it."

Goff went on to praise Ryan while adding his comment was all in fun. 

"Matt Ryan’s a hell of a player," Goff said. "I’m giving you a hard time. I appreciate it, man."

Fitzpatrick announced his retirement from the NFL in June 2022 after 17 seasons with nine teams.
