Episode notes
Morton Likely Maintains Turnkey Offense
- Johnny Morton will likely keep the offense familiar and rely on established playmakers rather than radically changing the scheme.
- The biggest question is Morton’s game-day management and play-calling sequencing across the season.
Campbell Ensures Offensive Balance
- Dan Campbell’s philosophy keeps the Lions offensively balanced and situationally flexible.
- Offensive play-calling will likely be iterative, not a wholesale schematic overhaul under Morton.
Two-Back Approach Will Stay Situational
- The Lions will use David Montgomery and Jameer Gibbs situationally to preserve both over a long season.
- Expect Gibbs' share to rise but rarely exceed a roughly 70/30 split in his favor.
