Have you ever seen Beverly Hills cop, Axel Foley wore a lions jacket with number 67, that was in honor of the 67 seasons between championships, if you don't want to do the math, 1957 was 67 seasons ago.😊
I was also born in 1957, about 2mo before the championship, so I don't remember it, hahaha, as with you I have also been through a lot of heart breaking seasons. This could be the year. GO LIONS
I agree with you…unfortunately the NFL likes the corporate type of coach and that’s why I don’t think Campbell gets more recognition for what he has done…there’s more attention about his gambles.
@@moonhead8550I disagree 100% in fact I would make the argument and not a single coach in the league personifies and is more of a superstar to their team than Campbell is. He is the face of the Detroit Lions. They don't really have a stud standout marketable player like most top teams do. With that said Minnesota coach deserves every bit as much credit and if he wins this week he probably deserves your word. Keep in mind they were projected with seven games this year. Even with Hutchinson and McNeil out the lions are better than a projected seven win team
@@moonhead8550Detroit was expected to be a Titan on the NFL this year! Minnesota was supposed to win 6 or 7 games this year and doubled the expectations! KOC should win this year! No bias just stating facts!
Dan Campbell the Detroit lions are winners believe that i dont no much about sports but i love the family spirit /energy yall give us fan for life thank you Cheryl Robinson
Well, I’ve been a Lions fan for over 50 years and I’m beyond thrilled that we finally have a great Detroit Lions TEAM! 🎉 Go LIONS! No question Detroit will command the Vikings…
I love you Coach! I did not want it to come down to the last game of the season! I don't want to have a stroke or a heart attack! I believe we will win!!!!Let's Go! Boot Up! Go Lions!🦁🏉🐐💪💯 back to back NFC North Champions
Dan Campbell is fearless. As it's said, teams take on the personality of their HC. These Detroit Lions are fearless, too. That's the way championships are won. Some of y'all might remember the championship teams of the Pistons. The Bad Boys and the Go To Work squad had no fear in them. They expected to beat any team they played. These Lions are the same way.
What a great game coming on Sunday night . Both teams have a history of major disappoints in being a Super Bowl champion. Both have 14 wins Should be a epic football game. Go Lion's.
What in the world are you talking about? This team has been number one and pretty much everybody's power rankings the last 2 months. Maybe not since the Buffalo loss but they've been top three. They've gotten tons of credit which they've deserved nobody is ever saying they're not good. In fact they've been favored in every single 17 games this season
Born in 1957 also, last championship. It's time for super bowl. Coach control emotion make good decisions, gamble but think?? Don't make dumb decisions! Win baby!!!
Thank you from ownership down. Lions are firing on all cylinders. Bless you boys. Your making hell freeze over because of the hope you bring in this town.God bless stay healthy.
I think the reporter’s are asking for him to tell them his game plan and layout all his plans for the game. The Lions have come along way give THEM a break!! They are winning respectfully let them enjoy the moment. Every single person acts like they don’t have any pressure? Let Dan and the team enjoy what they have done this season. They know what they’re doing. PLAY BALL 🏈
Since my Carolina Panthers are not going to be competitive while David Tepper is owner, I have adopted the Lions and Buffalo Bills as my fave teams. The Lions are a great story and a great team. I hope they can win it all. What concerns me is the injury bug that has hit the team, especially on defense. Losing Aiden Hutchinson and Alim McNeil was a major blow. They have been giving up more points since their injuries. I'm not sure if Alex Anzalone's injury is season ending, but they need him back big-time. Losing RB David Montgomery was big, as well. Since Ezekial Elliot was just let go by Dallas, maybe the Lions could sign him at low cost to spell Jahmyr Gibbs. - - Anyway, the Lions are now proving to be a great team and a great organization. After so many years in the doldrums during the previous decade, it's time for the Lions to win it all.
Can you REALLY not figure out how to mic this guy AND get the questions loud enough so we can hear them, too? The team is great... the media team needs work!
@@tylerphylerOf course it is situational. 2nd qtr and 2 seconds left, kicking the FG. Low scoring game and offense is crap today, kicking the FG. However, normally if Detroit can convert on over 50% of their 4th and 1’s, than in two possessions to make the stat realistic…they are getting an opportunity at 12-16 points vs max 6 (which in either case is ofc no points are guaranteed). But lately, their 4th and one conversion rate is like 70%; it is way too high to ignore being more aggressive realizing you won’t succeed on some. In general, I think the only real arguable ones are if you are deep in your own zone like at your own 35 yard line or less(not a hard number)but needs to be clear within the organization what level of risk you are willing to take.
@@David9999-w9s he's just making up for all the times we should have went for it when we sucked. 0-12 and we're having Jason Hanson go kick a 35 yard field goal while we're down 4 points with 5 minutes to go in the 4th vs the Vikings. Detroit needed MCDC
I just hope Lions are listening all the pundits - they’re all picking the Vikings. I think before they take the field Sunday, Coach should show videos of everybody picking the Vikings.
On my phone I can't hear Dan or the reporters. It's a low volume mumble fest for 12 minutes. No probs with any other videos except Lions press conferences.
I'm sure he is getting a solid 3 hours of sleep a night. You do understand that is the normal for an NFL coach right? Especially this time of the year.
Obviously, the win this week would be great but consider this scenario: Lions lose this week and them play the Bucs in the wild card round. The other two wild card teams lose. Lions would then play Minnesota again with at least a few more players returning. A win there gets Lions back to the NFC championship game, likely the Eagles. A much rougher road, but the first two games are entirely do-able for this team. Eagles in Philly would be a tough game. If Lions win, this week, the re-match with the Vikings would still be a very real possibility, but with Vikings coming to Detroit. Hosting the NFC championship game in Detroit would be something really special.
Seems like there should be some discussion about seeding system for the playoffs. The way this is currently set up could result in the two teams with the best records in the conference playing in the divisional round rather than the NFC championship. My point is that the league should at least consider re-evaluating how teams are seeded for the playoffs or have an option(s) available for the matchups. That said, if the league did implement something like this, it would most likely result in the Lions being put in a disadvantageous place if the league has their way. Lions always get the short end of the stick from the league.
He's down in the dumps over real life current events, correct? Hearing him basically downplay this game because it's not the playoffs doesn't sound like him.
Lions will win. We will find a way. Absolutely crazy both teams are 14-2 and after having monster seasons it comes down to this one game. Def a Super Bowl of sorts, best 2 teams in the NFC to end the regular season. Even IF we lose, we’re still in the playoffs!! 🎉💙🖤🤍🫐
Wow, I am not seeing that body language at all. Go back and watch some of his older early-week press conferences. He is talking to reporters, not the team
I hope we win against the Vikings and get that Number 1 seed and win the NFC North I Pry that Dan Campbell and The Lions play hard and get through the Playoffs and win the Super Bowl GO LIONS🤍💙🤍💙🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🔥💯

Welcome aboard my friend !!! Go UK Go Lions !!!
Been waiting 40 years for this coach 🤘

When I got here we had Fontes as coach, and he was pretty damn good. I'll say we've been waiting for this entire regime. The front office plays such a huge role in Detroit.
Been waiting 65 years
My gosh, probably first coach that's been there four years without being fired like the rest.
Been waiting 65 years for this coach
I was born in 1957 in Detroit when Lions last won championship would like to see them win it in my lifetime, it's time.
Me too! Born Dec 1956. Fan all my life. Gotta see one Super Bowl appearance, PLEASE!

Happy New Year fellow Lions fans 🥂🦁 God bless you all and let's make 2025 a great one
Next year they should be pretty good 14 win they mostly will in the next 3 years 6 superbowls

Yes Sir. Hard to believe or comprehend for us die hards. Go Lions. Started following them in 1969
Happy for u to be able to witness this! Go lions
Really Hope we get Anzo back this week. That would be huge for our defesne.
I would bet on Montgomery being back before Anzo...
He started practicing today I believe so it is possible. He even announced, "I'm back" today, so I think he feels like he's going to play on Sunday.
I believe we’re getting Maybin back,that should help if he is in good enough shape.
Always a straight forward, honest press conference. Also, always just looking at what needs to be done for the next game. Traits of a champion.
I love you Coach! I did not want it to come down to the last game of the season! I don't want to have a stroke or a heart attack! I believe we will win!!!!Let's Go! Boot Up! Go Lions!🦁🏉🐐💪💯 back to back NFC North Champions
Weird. Who are you saying this to?
Dan Campbell isn’t going to read it
There is nothing more convincing than hear Dan Campbell have a press conference ❤
Dan know what it takes to win and the players are behind him.
I hope the Lions think about the fans every play they play and win for us !
lol. These guys don’t care about the fans.
It’s Great to Have This Coach 🎉 Shout out to Being Winners
Trust in Uncle Dan 🤘🏾
We had a man that played for Detroit the last time they won a championship back in 1950,s from my hometown mt.carmel,il go lions win a Superbowl!!
Dan your the Best keep on going GOD Bless!
U can do this we where build for this

Gotta watch for the double move with Addison, especially when Darnold starts scrambling buying time
Love it. Please raise the volume on these press conference videos. Much quieter than all other videos on youtube. Thanks!
What a great game coming on Sunday night . Both teams have a history of major disappoints in being a Super Bowl champion. Both have 14 wins
Should be a epic football game. Go Lion's.
Happy New Year Lion's 🥳🎉🥂🎈💥✨️ Let's make 2025 the Year we win the "Super Bowl"!! 💙🏈💙💥
Nothing still about Bates being the Single Season Points Leader in Lions history? Come on guys.
Even when they win Sunday this team won't get their flowers from the press. Detroit vs Everybody.

That's my damn coach right there! (Fan of football in general)
Kinda wish the game was on the road we are good on the road but happy we are home
Crazy we're 13-2 and have to battle the last game for the #1 spot..... Defense is depleted at every position but we're gonna fight w everything we got
14-2
Whats crazy is they could have lost this game and next weeks vikings game and still had the best season ever
What sucks is the losing team will have the 5 seed and be on the road through the playoffs.....with a 14-3 record.
@@deadreckoning6288 That's crazy, That means the packers What and even make the playoffs with a 12 and 5 . If the redskins were 12and 5

Born in 1957 also, last championship. It's time for super bowl. Coach control emotion make good decisions, gamble but think?? Don't make dumb decisions! Win baby!!!
Please sign Calais Campbell if he gets released from Miami.
They have a small chance of going to playoffs still so he isn't going anywhere.
@@BrianLaHarahe talked to the front office and ownership, asked to be released if they don’t make the playoffs to “chase a ring”
@br__uh but he has to be released and clear waivers before this weekend. If after he can't play in playoffs.
@@BrianLaHarash*t I thought the waiver wire was still active during playoffs, we coulda used him very effectively
Go getem coach
Thank you from ownership down. Lions are firing on all cylinders. Bless you boys. Your making hell freeze over because of the hope you bring in this town.God bless stay healthy.
I grew up with Barry. We were a game away from the Super Bowl in the '91 Season then last year so close. PLEASE GET IT DONE GUYS!!
score early and often
LIONS PRIDE IN 2025!!!💙💙💙
Hey Lion media folks…..can you please put mics in the press room so WE CAN HEAR THE QUESTIONS
Use headphones or ear buds. Much easier to hear & louder.
Calm and collected. This mans leading this team to a win on Sunday and CotY
Go Lions!
This team is built on Art of War principles. Only thing stopping the Lions will be the Lions....
Only thing stopping this team is injuries.
Remember the post game in San Francisco? How well we could hear the questions?
Unable to hear questions during these interviews. May help if Dan can paraphrase the question
Try air pods.
It’s next man up, period! This is our game, in our house, to take our conference and our division, enough said. Lions W 27-20, let’s ride!!
Mic the reporters so we can hear the questions. This is absurd.
Mics cost good money! What do you think this is, a self-proclaimed professional, multi-billion dollar industry?...
I think the reporter’s are asking for him to tell them his game plan and layout all his plans for the game. The Lions have come along way give THEM a break!! They are winning respectfully let them enjoy the moment. Every single person acts like they don’t have any pressure? Let Dan and the team enjoy what they have done this season.
