Bravo on hiring Dan Willie Mays Jersey Campbell, one of the few first-year head coaches that actually deserves an applause despite logging a losing season in his first with the . That's because given the context of what he's trying to turn around and in just hot super-competitive the Lions were in 2021 -- something rarely seen within that organization -- it's clear the team got the right guy. But for as much ovation as Campbell deserves for being on the verge of flipping several of his lo ses into wins (seriously, he destroyed the spread nearly weekly), there are obviously still some tweaks that need to occur for the Lions to take that next step.They have the right head coach, presumably, and they have some strong talent at key positions, but the reason they couldn't get over the hump many times is because, bottom line, they need more firepower. Get to work on that and the Lions will be a migraine for NFC North opponents, and others, for a long time to come.Speaking of trying to change the Titanic's course, say hello to Campbell, a first-year HC tasked with uplifting an entire city that is as football maniacal about its team as it is unconvinced things will ever change for the better. When Campbell said he wanted guys who'd "eat kneecaps," Logan Webb Jersey he meant it (proverbially speaking, of course), and the Lions easily and instantly became one of the most competitive teams in the NFL -- period. They destroyed the spread in 2021 and no one wanted to play them because what was once seen as a bye week against the Lions became anything but, and you can ask theto weigh in on that one.The Lions finished 3-13-1 but seven of those lo ses were close to being victories, and I personally can't wait to see what Campbell does in Year 2. Campbell has shown he's the perfect blue-collar guy to lead in Detroit, and with the football mind to help get the job done, but he didn't have enough firepower to get it done so whatever he asks for in 2022 -- just say "yes". A major Achilles heel for the Lions was their inability to consistently get after the opposing quarterback. They had some very good showings at times -- e.g., the regular season finale against the wherein they delivered four sacks as a unit -- but it was leading the team with "only" 7.5 sacks over the course of 17 Wandy Peralta Jersey games played. That simply won't get it done when you also consider the defense logged only 30 sacks as a whole and Juan Marichal Jersey , for contrast, the racked up 51 sacks on the year while the gained 49, meaning the Lions pa s rush is far from those two (who were both in top-5 in the category).The bottom line is if you want to get the job done in the NFC North, you better start hitting and/or pre suring the quarterback. And considering that, at least for the moment, is still the quarterback of the Packers while a super-mobile looks to take the next step in 2022, it's paramount Campbell have some nuclear weapons at the edges to give them and hell.While trying to level up the pa s rush, multitask and addre s the secondary as well. Credit to Oruwariye for having a breakout season that saw him reel in six interceptions this season, but the second-most in that category on the team was a big fat uno, with five players grabbing only one INT and the team finishing with just those 11 on the season. Circling back to the above point regarding bullying opposing quarterbacks, when that becomes a consistent thing in Detroit, the next task will be to turn those opportunities for interceptions into just that: interceptions. Giving more opportunities with the ball increases Trevor Gott Jersey the chances of the a more restful defense over the course of four quarters, and serves the added duty of, well, keeping the score low enough to avoid needing Goff to throw 50 times in an attempt to win games (bad formula). Find a stud cornerback in either free agency or the 2022 NFL Draft to complement Oruwariye, and prosper.
