To answer your question, we need just a little bit more (pressure). There was a couple of (plays) that did get long, a couple of these plays that you like to believe that we can get somebody there just a little bit sooner.\u201d <\/p>\n<p id=\"KI5RrE\">Indeed, Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold was able to hold the ball for a very long time, putting additional pressure on the Lions secondary against a good group of Minnesota receivers. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fantasypoints.com\/#\/\">Per Fantasy Points,<\/a> Darnold averaged 3.4 seconds from snap to throw, which was the longest of any quarterback against the Lions defense this season. <\/p>\n<p id=\"2bFbE9\">In the press conference, Campbell noted that defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn did a great job scheming up pressure, giving them a fighting chance without Aidan Hutchinson. <\/p>\n<p id=\"mbVpOz\">But in a one-on-one interview with Dan Miller later that day, Campbell noted that both the coaching staff and general manager Brad Holmes still very much exploring options to bolster the personnel on the defensive line, which includes a possible trade.<\/p>\n<p id=\"IrYJ4Y\">\u201cWe need a little bit (more pressure),\u201d Campbell said. \u201cWhether that\u2019s somebody in house, we do things a little different, or it is a trade. Look, Brad\u2019s still looking at everything right now. It\u2019s not like we turned our back on that (and) nobody\u2019s looking or anything. So, we\u2019ll find it, but until that time we\u2019re gonna find whatever we need to here. If we need to try out a couple of guys\u2014we still have Isaiah Thomas, we\u2019ve got (Mitchell) Agude, we\u2019ve got Al-(Quadin) Muhammad that we brought in. So we may give those guys a go. We\u2019re open to looking for anything we can.\u201d <\/p>\n<p id=\"q9YeS4\">The NFL trade deadline is just two weeks away (Tuesday, November 5), and it\u2019s unclear who, if anyone, the Lions may be targeting. They <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prideofdetroit.com\/2024\/10\/16\/24272001\/nfl-trade-rumor-detroit-lions-reached-out-jets-haason-reddick\">reportedly contacted the Jets about Haason Reddick<\/a>, but the New York defender settled his contract dispute with the Jets and is returning to the team this week. We\u2019ve also heard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prideofdetroit.com\/2024\/10\/19\/24274178\/nfl-trade-rumors-zadarius-smith-detroit-lions-cleveland-browns\">Za\u2019Darius Smith talk openly about how he\u2019d like to join the Lions<\/a>, but there have been no reports on whether that feeling is mutual. <\/p>\n<p id=\"WmCY1e\">The Lions have consistently said since Hutchinson\u2019s injury that they\u2019ll be looking, but they won\u2019t rush a decision or act desperately. <\/p>\n<p id=\"NubYNS\">\u201cEverything\u2019s got to be right,\u201d Campbell said last week. \u201cAnd honestly, where we\u2019re at now, we\u2019re not in a hurry. I mean, I believe in the guys that are here. I believe in that D-line. Doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019re not looking, we\u2019re not evaluating. Brad is, that\u2019s his job and he\u2019s good at it and we\u2019ll take it as it comes. But our eyes are open, and we want to make sure that we have what we need here.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prideofdetroit.com\/2024\/10\/22\/24276439\/dan-campbell-says-detroit-lions-more-pass-rush-still-exploring-trades\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a review of the film from the Detroit Lions\u2019 latest game against the Minnesota Vikings, coach Dan Campbell came to an important conclusion about his defense. \u201cAn area where &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=117156\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=117156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117156\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=117156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=117156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=117156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
