Amon-Ra St. Brown throws a 9-yard touchdown to Jared Goff

Maybe they'll call it the Detroit Special.

Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown took a handoff from quarterback Jared Goff and got off to a real start. Goff sneaked out to the left, and St. Brown stopped and threw the ball back to Goff.

Seahawks linebacker Trevis Gibson saw it, but it was too late to break up the pass.

It goes as a 9-yard touchdown throw from St. Brown to Goff, who threw the ball into the stands. It was St. Brown's first throw of his college or professional career and Goff's second career catch and his first career touchdown reception.

It's the Lions' only passing touchdown of the night, with Jahmyr Gibbs scoring two points and David Montgomery scoring one.

The Lions lead 28-14 with 6:57 left in the third quarter.

Montgomery had the big play in the five-play, 70-yard drive with a beast mode run of 40 yards. Cornerback Devon Witherspoon beat Montgomery at the line of scrimmage, but Witherspoon took the brunt of the hit, with Montgomery rebounding and then making more tackles before Rayshawn Jenkins pushed him off the field at the Seattle 30.
