NOTEBOOK: Lions DB Saivion Smith being evaluated for a neck injury

Goff threw an interception at the New England 3-yard line on Detroit's second possession of the game.

Later in the second quarter, he fumbled on a 4th and 9 play that was scooped up and returned 59 yards for a touchdown that gave the Patriots a 13-0 lead.

It was the third turnover this season for Goff that's resulted in a defensive touchdown: Two pick sixes and Sunday's fumble return.

"Yeah, I mean, always costly to turn the ball over any time," Goff said after the game. "But whenever it results in a six, it's even more costly. But yeah, I mean, I wish I would have, you know, been a little more careful there. But trying to extend the play on fourth. And, yeah, unfortunate."

That's one area in particular Goff has to clean up moving forward.
