Dan Campbell has officially joined the growing list of NFL head coaches who have decided to take charge of play-calling — and so far, the results in Detroit have been encouraging. The Lions’ fiery leader said he’s loving the process, especially the “collaboration and trust” that comes with it.
Campbell explained that the move wasn’t about ego but about “feel and rhythm,” something he believes the team needed to regain on offense. With the Lions struggling for consistency in recent weeks, Campbell’s decision to grab the play sheet was both bold and refreshing.
“It’s all of us,” Campbell said. “I might call the play, but it’s a reflection of the work we’ve done together — the staff, the players, everyone in this building.”
The Lions’ offense looked more confident and unpredictable under his guidance, blending power runs with clever play-action designs. Players like Jared Goff and Amon-Ra St. Brown have publicly praised the shift, saying Campbell’s energy and instincts keep them sharp and focused.
Detroit fans are hoping this hands-on approach continues to bring out the best in their team — because when Dan Campbell gets that competitive fire burning, the Lions tend to roar louder than ever.
