The Detroit Lions have the most fourth down conversion attempts in the NFL through 10 weeks, but Lions coach Dan Campbell broke character in Sunday’s win over the Chicago Bears when he kicked an early field goal rather than try and convert on fourth-and-4.
Campbell said Monday he “felt like that was the right move at that moment,” and insisted his decision does not signal a change in his aggressive approach. The Lions won, 31-30.
“Just with where the game was going, where I thought it would go, and we had a pretty good drive,” Campbell said.
