A very fired-up Dan Campbell gave a rousing postgame victory speech to his Detroit Lions in the wake of the team’s epic 34-31 win over the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night.
Campbell’s postgame addresses to his team are quickly becoming legend, and this one was no different. Beating a very good Packers team despite all of Detroit’s defensive injuries was cause for an epic celebration, and Campbell delivered following the Lions’ Week 14 primetime triumph.
“I told you you’d never forget this game,” a hoarse Campbell gleefully shouted in the locker room. “We don’t have to talk about how tough we are. We don’t have to talk about how resilient we are. We (expletive) live it, man!”
After lightening the tone by spotlighting Dan Skipper vomiting after his hard-fought turn as the fill-in left tackle, Campbell delivered the sort of message that exemplifies why these Lions are 12-1 and a legit Super Bowl contender.
“You talk about pressure, we live in pressure,” Campbell exhorted. “That’s where we freaking thrive…
…it doesn’t matter who’s playing for us. It doesn’t matter what’s going on. You always find a way to win! That’s what (expletive) champions do. This is not happenstance, men; this doesn’t just (expletive) happen. This has been in the making, men.
This has been in the making. We are all supposed to be here together, men. We’re destined for this!”
Campbell went on to present very deserved game balls to wide receiver Tim Patrick and kicker Jake Bates.
