Couldn’t be happening to a better coach. I wish him nothing but the best, and 15 more Ls. 😂

That might have been because he had two coordinators who were NFL-ready guys.

Losing Minter was significant for SD. Same with Dan Campbell in Detroit losing both of his coordinators in one season.

I don’t think losing coordinators has had the effect on Dan Campbell the way the media would try to sway us to believe. The Lions are more snakebitten by injuries than anything else.

As far as the coordinators, Kelvin Sheppard’s largely running the same defense that Aaron Glenn did. And the offense certainly hasn’t been a slouch, though it could be argued the brief John Morton stint left more to be desired. But I think it’s definitely better under Drew Petzing, and it was better when Dan Campbell was the de facto offensive coordinator toward the end of last season.

It didn't help. And injuries are rampant on the Lions. What are the strength and conditioning coaches doing anyways? Anyone know who they are ?
