KEY QUESTIONS: How important are Lions' road division wins?

KEY QUESTIONS How important are Lions road division wins
Tim Twentyman covers all the key questions from Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell's Monday press conference.

How good has linebacker Jack Campbell been the last few weeks?

He recorded his second straight double-digit tackle game Sunday in Green Bay and has been really playing the MIKE linebacker role at a high level of late.

"Sometimes you forget he's a young player," Campbell said of his second-year linebacker. "At least I fall into that trap at times. He's still growing and still learning and still developing. That's what you're seeing, a player who is continuing to get better. The more he learns and the more he plays, the faster he plays. We can see it.

"He's a finisher, you know? He is snap to whistle, he's all out, he's a violent player and he does the same thing on (special) teams. He just continues to get better for us."

Campbell leads the team with 62 tackles after eight games.

Who impressed Campbell after watching the tape on Monday of Sunday's performance?

Offense: Running back David Montgomery, quarterback Jared Goff, wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, running back Jahmyr Gibbs, tight end Sam LaPorta and the offensive line across the board.

Defense: Safety Kerby Joseph, defensive tackle Alim McNeill, linebacker Jack Campbell and cornerback Carlton Davis III.

Special teams: Campbell, cornerback Khalil Dorsey, punter Jack Fox, wide receiver Isaiah Williams, linebacker Trevor Nowaske and defensive lineman Pat O'Connor.
