Head coach Dan Campbell isn’t losing faith in the Detroit Lions’ offense — not for a second. Despite recent inconsistencies and some frustrating starts, Campbell believes his team is on the verge of something special. In his words, they’re “so close, I can smell it.”
That confidence is classic Campbell — gritty, passionate, and unwavering. The Lions have flashed moments of brilliance this season but have yet to fully click for four quarters. Campbell insists it’s not about overhauling the game plan, but about execution, timing, and rhythm — the kind of chemistry that separates contenders from pretenders.
He’s seen enough in practice and during key stretches of games to know it’s coming. And if his instincts are right, Detroit could be just one breakout performance away from reestablishing its dominance on offense.
Fans can only hope that Campbell’s sense of smell is as sharp as his football mind — because if the Lions offense finally ignites, the NFC better watch out.
