LIVE FEED: LIONS’ OFFENSE DAZZLES WITH CREATIVITY AGAINST BEARS
The Detroit Lions may be plagued by injuries, but that hasn’t stopped them from maintaining their position as the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC. Head coach Dan Campbell isn’t letting his team use injuries as an excuse, and it showed in their Week 16 matchup against the Chicago Bears, where Detroit’s offense continued to shine with innovative play-calling.
Ben Johnson’s Masterclass in Creativity
Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson has become known for his inventive strategies, and Sunday was no exception. Johnson dialed up one of the most unconventional plays yet—a double stumble that left everyone, including the broadcast crew, bewildered.
Quarterback Jared Goff executed a flawless fake stumble, followed by a pinpoint pass to tight end Sam LaPorta, marking Goff’s third touchdown pass of the game. Even running back Jahmyr Gibbs added to the deception with his own convincing fake fall, which commentators jokingly said could make “Tom Cruise blush.”
Lions Offense Continues to Impress
This season, the Lions have consistently delivered jaw-dropping moments on offense:
- Touchdown passes to Jared Goff himself
- Offensive linemen scoring touchdowns
- Hook-and-ladder plays that leave defenses scrambling
It’s no surprise that Ben Johnson is considered a top candidate for a head coaching position in the near future. Until then, Lions fans are savoring every moment of his brilliant schemes.
Dan Campbell summed it up best: “Injuries or not, this team doesn’t back down. We stick to what we do best—keeping defenses on their heels.”
As the Lions push toward the playoffs, their innovative offense could be the key to solidifying their place as one of the most exciting teams in the NFL. Stay tuned for more updates as this NFC North battle unfolds!
