If you're wondering whether that 52-21 demolition of Chicago actually proves the Lions can thrive without Ben Johnson - or if it just masked deeper coordinator concerns that'll surface against tougher opponents - this episode cuts through the celebration noise to deliver the analytical breakdown you need.

We dissect John Morton's tactical pivot from Week 1's struggles to Sunday's play-action masterclass, examine Kelvin Shepard's defensive adjustments that generated four sacks, and reveal the specific metrics that separate genuine coordinator progress from fool's gold against a struggling Bears offense.

You'll discover the realistic timeline for when these coordinator changes should "click," the precise improvement markers to track over the next month, and why the Ravens matchup will provide the first real test of whether Detroit's new identity can handle elite competition.

This isn't post-win euphoria - it's data-driven analysis that prepares you for the coordinator development curve ahead while celebrating what actually worked against Chicago.
