Dan Campbell may not be popular Lions choice -- time will tell if he's the right one

ALLEN PARK, Mich. – He was not the expected choice at the beginning or the overwhelming choice of the paying public, either. But none of that will matter if Dan Campbell ends up doing what hasn’t been done consistently with the Detroit Lions in six decades.

Win.

Campbell, 44, is expected to be named the new head coach of the Detroit Lions at some point now that the New Orleans Saints are out of the playoffs, according to Adam Schefter. It would complete a search that took less than two months to completely flip one regime to another.
