What did Dan Campbell Say?
Campbell views the Lions’ current situation not as a setback but as a chance to demonstrate the team’s true character. Dismissing the Thanksgiving loss as not as detrimental as it seemed, Campbell focuses on the positive aspects and the learning opportunities it presented.
“Listen, if anything, I went back, and after watching it, I’m actually more encouraged,” Campbell said. “Because to me, it’s not what it appears to be.”

“I’m not getting worried,” Campbell said. “I love this. I’m serious. …I love that, man, it’s doom and gloom outside our building and we’ve got six (games) to go. We’ve got an unbelievable opportunity and I love it. I really do, man. This is where we find out what we’re made of.”
