The two quarterbacks face their former teams in a 2023 playoff rematch.
Week 1 of the 2024 NFL regular season has arrived, and the Los Angeles Rams will face off against the Detroit Lions this Sunday night.
The Lions had a team record-breaking season last year, winning their first division title in two decades. As they host LA, the 2023 playoffs rematch should make for an exhilarating game. The game is on NBC, which — if you don't have cable — you can stream on Peacock.

Tonight, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will go head-on against his former team in their hometown. Likewise, the former LA Rams QB Jared Goff will face his former teammates on his home turf at Ford Field. While both teams likely have Superbowl aspirations, Goff and the Lions are looking to defend the NFC North title and shut down the Rams early in their first regular season game.
It will be the Rams' first season without retired defensive tackle Aaron Donald, and draft picks Jared Verse and Braden Fiske have big cleats to fill. On the other side of the field, Lions head coach Dan Campbell will continue his endearing way of motivating his team to make a statement to set off the season.
