“He advised me yesterday it is a everlasting transfer,” Glazer mentioned on Sunday through the FOX pregame present. “He’s going to do that for the remainder of the season. He mentioned, ‘Look, I’m nonetheless kinda getting my ft moist how I’m doing this, schedule smart.’ However Johnny Morton, who he changed, has been doing a improbable job serving to [him] get acclimated to this. However that is Dan Campbell the remainder of the best way.”
Earlier within the week, Campbell left the door open for offensive coordinator John Morton to reclaim play-calling duties both in 2026 or doubtlessly sooner. Campbell in contrast Morton’s scenario to that of Ben Johnson in 2021, when Campbell took over play-calling duties within the remaining half of the season, solely to provide Johnson the keys to the offense the subsequent 12 months.
“I known as no matter that was, eight or 9 video games—I don’t keep in mind what it was—in ’21 whereas [Johnson] helped me. However he watched, he realized, he noticed how I ran it, how I needed to run it, what I used to be in search of. After which it developed, he developed it from there. He took it, he knew precisely what I needed and by the center of ’22, I didn’t must say a phrase,” Campbell mentioned. “So, that’s type of the place John is true now, that’s all. It’s good. And generally that’s the easiest way to actually know what anyone’s in search of is simply going by way of that.”
Below Campbell’s play-calling, the Lions set a season-high in yards final week towards the Washington Commanders and put up 44 factors. This week, he’ll have a a lot larger problem towards an Eagles protection that at present ranks tenth in scoring (21.3 level per recreation).
