From the article

With an inconsistent passing attack, Gibbs largely led the offense. He rattled off 156 yards on 29 carries (a new career-high), yet perhaps the most impressive part of that stat line is that his longest was just 21 yards.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Gibbs' 156 yards on 29 carries shows elite consistency as the Lions' bell cow.

In his first game as the official bell cow of the Lions backfield, Gibbs racked up 156 yards on 29 carries (a new career-high) with a 5.4 yards-per-attempt average despite no breakaway runs; his longest carry was just 21 yards, demonstrating consistent efficiency throughout the game. The source notes that Gibbs averaged more yards on the ground than Jared Goff did through the air (5.3 yards per attempt), and emphasizes that his ability to handle carrying the ball over 25 times without sacrificing efficiency is a recipe for success as the Lions lean on him early and often this season.
