–I thought rookie LB Jack Campbell had his best game of the year. Wasn’t perfect by any means, but playing more MIKE sure seemed to fit his skills well. He wore the green dot capably.
–Jahmyr Gibbs getting one target in the passing game against a Saints defense playing without regulars at LB is a glaring misstep.
–Jameson Williams needed the ball more in this one, too. One target–which he caught despite being held on the catch–and the end around weren’t enough Jamo against a slow Saints defense.
–If the Lions are going to continue to have CB Jerry Jacobs play outside technique in man coverage, they’re going to have to get better safety play. Jacobs is struggling badly of late. He’s also getting let down by his schemed help in those situations way too often.
–Penei Sewell gave up a sack and (for him) struggled for the second straight game in pass protection. Sewell is still outstanding, but he’s not been anywhere close to his best since about halftime of the Week 11 game against Chicago.
–Jared Goff when not throwing to Sam LaPorta: 7-of-16, 73 yards, one TD
–The Lions completed their sweep of the NFC South, a division that could very well have no teams finish with a winning record.
