Gibbs dominates in bell-cow role with 183 yards, 50% of team's offensive output in Week 1.

In his new bell-cow role following his contract extension, Gibbs accounted for 50.4% of the Lions' 369 total yards and 57.7% of their 26 first downs in Week 1 against the Saints. His 183 total yards rank fourth-most by a Detroit Lions player in a season opener in franchise history, featuring seven runs of 10-plus yards, 12 missed tackles forced, and 82 yards after contact. The source notes Gibbs willed the offense down the field when it went through lulls, with his vision, patience, pacing, and acceleration on full display; he accounted for 35 yards on the final overtime touchdown drive. Despite a fumble overturned on replay, the source identifies him as fully primed for a career season and a strong Offensive Player of the Year contender.
