Lions' offense hopes to return to high-flying form after Week 1 slow burn

In the moments following the Detroit Lions' 21-20 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, coach Dan Campbell used one phrase over and over again.

“We got a lot to clean up,” he said.

And, he’s not wrong. Though the Lions ultimately outscored the Chiefs in the thriller at Arrowhead Stadium, the offensive side of the ball left a lot to be desired for a team that’s looking to improve on a top-five offense from a season ago.

The numbers looked decent enough for Lions quarterback Jared Goff, who completed 22 of 35 passes for 253 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions for a passer rating of 94.
