It turns out Campbell is part of a new Applebee\u2019s commercial promoting their 50-cent wings. In the ad, Campbell plays a server who uses a checkbook to cover his mouth, jokingly advising patrons to do the same to protect their order from being \u201cstolen.\u201d This is a playful nod to how coaches cover their mouths during play calls to keep strategies confidential.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Commercial Humor:<\/strong> Campbell\u2019s comedic portrayal and the clever reference to football tactics have been well-received, adding a fun twist to the promotion of Applebee\u2019s wings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert dark\">\n<h3>Campbell\u2019s Coaching Success<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Career Progression:<\/strong> Since becoming head coach of the Lions in 2021, Campbell has overseen a significant turnaround. The Lions improved from a dismal 3-13 in his first season to a solid 9-8 in his second, and then a notable 12-5 in his third season, reaching the NFC Championship Game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2024 Outlook:<\/strong> With the Lions entering the 2024 season with Super Bowl aspirations, Campbell is seen as one of the top coaches in the NFL. His leadership and the team\u2019s performance could elevate him further if they secure a championship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Upcoming Game:<\/strong> The Lions are set to kick off their 2024 season on Sunday night against Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams at Ford Field.<\/p>\n<p>Campbell\u2019s blend of humor and success on the field makes him a standout figure in the NFL, and this commercial adds a lighthearted touch to his impressive coaching career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell is making headlines for a different reason this week\u2014he\u2019s featured in a new Applebee\u2019s\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":50162,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[16255],"class_list":["post-50158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports","tag-dan-campbell"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50158"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50158\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
