Dan Campbell Takes the Wheel, and Detroit Hits Overdrive
The Detroit Lions didn’t just win in Week 10 — they exploded. With head coach Dan Campbell taking over play-calling duties from offensive coordinator John Morton, the Lions lit up the Washington Commanders for 44 points and 546 yards of total offense.
That’s not a typo. After weeks of sputtering drives and frustrated fans, Campbell decided to shake things up, telling reporters, “Let’s try something a little different.” Turns out, that “something different” worked to perfection.
A “Collaborative Effort” — With a Campbell Twist
Campbell emphasized that his decision wasn’t about stepping on toes. “Look, I know what I want to do, I know how I want to do it,” he said, crediting Morton and the rest of his staff for their input. But even as a “collaborative effort,” it was clear the offense took on Campbell’s fiery personality — fast, aggressive, and full of attitude.
The result? Detroit’s most complete offensive performance of the season.
Graham Glasgow’s Hilarious Take
When asked why the team trusts Campbell to call plays, Lions center Graham Glasgow gave perhaps the best answer of the week.
“He looks really big and strong, so if he’s making decisions, it’s probably right,” Glasgow joked.
Then, getting serious, he added,
“He’s a football guy and I feel like he has a good finger on the pulse for what we need to do. He’s a great coach.”
Classic locker room humor mixed with real respect — the kind of chemistry that makes this Lions squad special.
Next Up: The Real Test
Sure, Washington’s defense isn’t exactly elite, but you can’t ignore how confident Detroit looked. The offensive line gave Goff time, the receivers were flying, and the team seemed to have fun again — something you can’t fake.
But the real challenge comes in Week 11, when the Lions face the Philadelphia Eagles under the bright lights of Sunday Night Football. If Campbell’s play-calling magic holds up there, Detroit might be back in the NFC spotlight for all the right reasons.
