The Grey Area: Offense is Closer Than You Might Think
Play Calling Proves ItselfThe Detroit Lions offense did not crumble without Ben Johnson. It ranked top ten and often top five across most categories. That held even with John Morton calling plays. It got even better when Dan Campbell took the sheet. The calls found rhythm. Motion, tempo, and sequencing created answers. This is not a unit searching for a savior. It is an NFL offense with a plan and proof of concept.
Repair the Front FiveThe line was in shambles for long stretches. That reality shaped the year. Put it back together and the rest of the picture sharpens. Protection synchronizes with timing. The run game sets the table. Jared Goff under pressure is a talking point, but protection dictates outcomes. Fix the front and windows open. Drives extend. Red zone calls breathe.
Chicago Without Penei SewellLook at Chicago. The Lions went in with a battered offensive line. No Penei Sewell. Not just the best tackle on the team. Maybe the best tackle in football. He did not play a snap, and the offense still executed. That matters. The structure held. The ball came out on time. The plan translated from call sheet to field. That is what you want from a top-tier operation. Adaptability. Clarity. A floor that travels.
The Engine of the TeamThe Lions offense is really close. It is the engine that runs the whole machine. Put healthy bodies in front of the quarterback and the ceiling rises. The data from this season already points up. Top ten. Top five. Different play callers, same production. That is sustainable with health and continuity. In the NFL, margins are thin. Detroit has found a way to widen them on offense. Reassemble the line around Frank Ragnow. Keep the sequencing sharp. The rest follows. The Detroit Lions do not need a narrative reset. They need their front five back together, and then the production everyone saw all year becomes the baseline.
