One of the top concerns for the Lions entering the 2025 season was the loss of offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, and Week 1 did not do much to ease those worries.
In the Lions' first game since Johnson departed for the Bears and John Morton took over as offensive coordinator, they looked like a shell of the explosive, creative unit they were the past two seasons. After ranking top-five in total offense and scoring each of the last two years, the Lions mustered just two field goals before garbage time, 246 total yards and 46 rushing yards against the Packers.
