Dan Campbell of the Detroit Lions acknowledges that he was outcoached by the Green Bay Packers.

In their game against the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions most definitely did not play their best. When a team gives up a lot of turnovers and gives the opposition quarterback one of his best statistical games of the year, a lot of introspection is necessary to figure out what went wrong so frequently. The offensive line’s poor performance was one of the Lions’ problems. Throughout the game, quarterback Jared Goff was under constant pressure, which led to the seasoned signal-caller fumbling three times.

In an interview with 97.1 The Ticket, head coach Dan Campbell admitted that their division rival outmatched and outcoached him and his coaching staff.

Do you believe that gives them a lot of satisfaction? No, none of us do,” Campbell retorted. “To put it simply, our players were outplayed, our coaches were outcoached, and I was outcoached.” We didn’t put in our best effort. Not our best foot forward after that, turning the ball over three times. We might still have a chance.

“Look, it’s unfortunate that it occurs. It would be unfortunate if we gave a subpar performance the next time around. That is not going to happen, in my opinion. I’m aware that it won’t occur,” Campbell went on. “We are aware that we will be facing a formidable foe in a demanding setting, but our guys are going to rise to the occasion. They simply act. They consistently do. We’ll recover. We intend to mount a valiant defensive defense.”

Detroit may try to activate seasoned player Bruce Irvin this week against the New Orleans Saints after having trouble with their pass rush in the previous two weeks. “We’re looking at everybody and he’s a guy that we got our eye on,” Campbell said in response to a question. We’ll see, then. We will be discussing him extensively today.” The veteran hasn’t played in a few weeks as he prepares to return to football form. Since January, when he was a member of the Seattle Seahawks, Irvin has not worn a uniform.
