'Billie Jean' performances and a lot of Dan Campbell: What to expect from the Detroit Lions on 'Hard Knocks'

DETROIT -- Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell made headlines during his introductory news conference last year when he talked about biting kneecaps off and taking chunks out of opponents, and now it’s time for an encore -- of sorts -- for the colorful coach.

The Lions will be featured on HBO’s "Hard Knocks," with the first episode debuting Tuesday.

Expect plenty of Campbell, from his high-caffeine coffee runs to his motivational tactics, as he tries to change the “Same Old Lions” narrative. Even two of the greatest players in Lions history -- Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson -- said they’ll be watching.
