The Lions face the Cowboys tonight on Thursday Night Football, and their playoff hopes are on the line as Dan Campbell’s tenure as head coach has hit a rocky patch. News anchor Dan Beyer wonders if they may eventually come to regret letting Offensive Coordinator Ben Johnson go to the Bears, especially if the Bears can continue to build on the success Johnson is having as a rookie head coach in Chicago.
Dan Beyer: “If we look back in five or ten years, and the Bears are having great success, and Dan Campell’s message gets old and they don’t have the success, Detroit’s probably going to rue the day that they let Ben Johnson go.”
