Lions Blast 52 Points Against Bears – Coach Dan Campbell Sends Rematch Challenge to Packers
After stumbling out of the gate in Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions immediately reminded the NFL of their true firepower, crushing the Chicago Bears 52-21. The dominant win not only restored confidence among fans but also left head coach Dan Campbell brimming with belief in his explosive offense.
Quarterback Jared Goff delivered one of the finest performances of his career, throwing for 334 yards, five touchdowns, and no turnovers. Amon-Ra St. Brown shined with 115 yards and three scores, while Jameson Williams added 108 yards and a touchdown on just two catches. “We know we’ve got weapons that can score at any moment. When our offense is in rhythm, it’s hard for anyone to stop us,” Campbell said after the game.
Despite being proud of an offense that hung more than 50 points, Campbell didn’t shy away from giving credit where it’s due — acknowledging that the Packers currently boast the league’s top defense. “They shut us down in Week 1 and then proved it again against the Commanders. If we want to own the NFC North, we have to go through them,” he admitted.
The victory moved Detroit to 1-1, sending a clear message: the NFC North race will be no easy ride for anyone, including Green Bay. Campbell closed his press conference with a fiery warning: “We’ll be ready for the rematch. Week 1 wasn’t the end of the story — it was just the beginning.”
