OC John Morton: Lions not 'in panic mode' after Week 1 dud

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Leaving Lambeau Field after an 0-1 start Sunday, wasn't a pleasurable experience for new Detroit Lions offensive coordinator John Morton.

But even after losing the opener at Green Bay 27-13, Morton said "nobody's in panic mode" inside the Lions' building.

Entering the Week 2 home contest against the Chicago Bears, Detroit will try to avoid going 0-2 for the first time since 2021, in Dan Campbell's first season as the Lions' head coach.

However, Bears head coach Ben Johnson -- who spent the previous three seasons as Detroit's offensive coordinator -- will be standing in the way during his much-anticipated return to Ford Field on Sept.
