The Detroit Lions anticipate that Sean Payton will bring additional motivation to embarrass them.
The Detroit Lions anticipate Broncos coach Sean Payton to be highly motivated due to his personal connections and pride on the field.
The Detroit Lions and Denver Broncos will face off on Saturday night, with many reunions centered around the New Orleans Saints, where Broncos head coach Sean Payton used to lead. Lions head coach Dan Campbell considers Payton one of his biggest mentors, and expects the Broncos coach’s competitive spirit to be high this week.
Lions coach Campbell is aware that Sean Payton is likely to embarrass the team in a upcoming game. Campbell, who spent five years as the assistant head coach of the Saints under Patyon, is not the only Lions employee who branched off from Payton’s tree. Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn and linebacker Alex Anzalone also started their NFL careers under Payton’s guidance. Anzalone believes that Sean is likely to put 50 on the Lions, and they must be prepared for this type of game.
