Notes: How the Detroit Lions offense counters current NFL trends

In last week’s mailbag, Erik, Jeremy, and Ryan spent a good chunk of time talking about why Ben Johnson is such a good offensive coordinator for this particular Detroit Lions roster. Specifically, our crew called out Johnson’s play design elements, emphasis on play action passing, and relationship with quarterback Jared Goff. A few days ago, an item from Notes by Dan Pompei at the Athletic highlighted that working relationship of OC and QB. If you want to see that stuff in action on tape, it turns out Alex Rollins has you covered in a fantastic find by Erik.
