The Detroit Lions hired a new offensive coordinator this offseason in Darrell Bevell. Bevell believes in a run-heavy offense that uses the run the set up the pass and runs the offense in a way that allows passing plays to be as efficient as possible.
Despite having passing attempts in bottom of the league most years and rushing attempts near the top of the league most years, Bevell’s offense more often than not finish in the top half of the league in both yards gained and points scored and both point differential and yardage differential.
