- Dan Campbell is the head coach for the Detroit Lions, an NFL Football team who have struggled to find success for many decades. When he first took the podium, everyone questioned his leadership style. However, after a few seasons, he turned the Detroit Lions football program completely around and had them finding success they haven't had in a very long time. His vision, building a brotherhood in the locker room, and having a top down approach has been nothing but successful. After a few seasons, he took the Detroit Lions to the NFC Championship, something the Lions have not accomplished in over 30 years. Enjoy!

I am 1000% a Dan Campbell fan. Rasheed Wallace from the Pistons years ago said, "Ball don't lie" Dan Campbell has shown that, 3 seasons with consistent improvement, and came within spitting distance of a Super Bowl. And I believe this year will be even better. Let's go Lions!!!
💯
The ball don't lie tho. It never does
SHIELA - I still remember Shiela talking to reporters mid season of their second year when people began talking about needing to fire Dan. She looked them in the eye and told the reporters that Brad a Dan are her guys and that she believed in them and their process, She stated she expected winning to begin very soon. We almost made it to the play offs that year. Shiela is a woman of vision. Grateful for an owner that as great vision and leadership!
Exactly! It was really her that wanted to have the management all on the same page, and Dan and Brad brought that mentality
I still think if they were the same Lions, they would. For me, that moment in time I felt the team was going to great things.
Thank you
Thank you shiela
The entire state of Michigan (except those weird Packers fans in the UP) would run through a brick wall for Dan Campbell. America could use a President like MCDC. His emotional honesty is his greatest strength.
President MCDC has my vote. Lol
I can see Dan Campbell being used as an example in corporate leadership seminars. That'd be awesome.
Not all of us Yoopers are Packer fans! Mostly just some of the west Enders. Most of us have been Honolulu Blue for decades.
Detroit Lions Made The Right Choice On Their Head Coach!!! As A Cardinals Fan, I'm Rooting For Dan Campbell!!!
I'm not a lions fan.. but you can't help but to admire what they are building in Detroit... Dan Campbell is a leader of men... he is a embodiment of what Detroit is.. tough.. blue collar and real... I hope they win a super bowl in the near future... and shout out to Brad Holmes for building that roster... dude has built a winner ..
Yup they building something special thanks too Brad Holmes. They getting culture cause of Brad Holmes .Who can someone without culture teach culture?
i'm not crying.. you're crying, man. Go Lions.
Hopefully happy tears. Lol
No tears involved. My eyes are just sweating, that’s all.
I'm cutting onions!
Cry all you want DC, we are with you my friend.
I just wish my dad was still alive to see his Lions now. He passed away 3 years ago at 88 years old. He was a Lions fan from when he was a little boy. He was so loyal to them even when they were losing. He would have been so over joyed to see them play like they do now. I am taking his place now and am so totally into the team and supporting them. Go Lions!
Rip pops. Be sure to thank him in your prayers for watching over these guys from above ❤
AMEN to That
Dan Campbell leads like a Marine I am truly a fan. Thank Dan, Brad, Sheila, Rod, and Chris
His dad is a marine I believe
I bought into Brad and Dan in 2021 when they were hired as a 40 plus year Lions fan. I became a season ticket holder in 2021. I upgraded my seats 2022 . I went to the Lions vs the Packers game in Jan 2023 to watch them keep the packer out of the playoffs, seats at the 50 yard line row one beat them. I then went to the Lions vs Chiefs game to start the 2023 seasons. They maybe haven’t been to the Super Bowl yet, but they will. GO LIONS!!!!
💯
🤟🙏
MCDC is my f*cking hero. My f*cking idol. I love this man. If I could have beers with anyone dead or alive, it’s Dan Campbell. OnePride! 🦁 He’s proven all the haters and all the doubters wrong and is 120% authentic.
He just makes me so proud of Detroit, Thank you so much MCDC.
I'm not a Lions fan but I got the 'Inside the Den: 2023 season Recap' recommended to me, watched the whole 90 minutes and loved it - now here I am, watching more Lions content - gotta respect and admire Dan Campbell and his young team for what they are doing - they're definitely my NFC team!
Those Inside the Den videos are great! Glad you rooting for them
You might be a Lions fan? That entire series is worth watching. Dan brings great content, but the team that puts that series together does an incredible job. It’s so good.
I grew up South of Detroit in Monroe in the 70s.
Nothing like this in the last 50 years!! Let's goooooo!!
I was raised in Monroe too!
I grew up in Sterling heights in the same era. Same feelings. This feels so freaking good
Yup. St Mary’s Chargers kid here.
Best Lions coach of my lifetime.
I remember Detroit being 1 of 32 NFL teams. We never got talked about unless it was the Refs fuckin us over, and even then it was a 3 minute segment. Now to see so much content, so much hype, and to actually feel it too. Detroits changing, its getting better and I love watching my once great city rebound
💯
Dan Campbell has to be the most loved and revered coach in the league. Detroit will be celebrating some championships, no doubt about it.
Dan's introductory press conference still fires me up. He IS a great leader of men. Now that AG has a lot more pieces on defense, this team looks really scary. The young core now has playoff experience, and not just a token wild card appearance. They won two games and were 30 minutes away from the Super Bowl. I think they fear no one. I am SO looking forward to this season! Love MCDC! One Pride! Go Lions!
💯
Especially when he said he was talking to the fans then cut an all time promo. It still makes me want to throw the pads on and I haven’t played since 8th grade. 😂
Dan is simply refreshing. He's honest and real. No politics. Totally opposite of every previous head coach of the Lions.
I have been a Lions fan since Alex Karras, Greg Landry and Lem Barney. Dan Campbell epitomizes the True Spirit of the Detroit Lions, Total Toughness!!
MCDC made the Lions fun again. Even when we were losing the Lions were must see TV because of him. The way the team fights.... going for it on 4th down.... being aggressive.... refusing to lose.... That's all the Dan Campbell effect.
💯
This video is worthy of a million views. Great job.
Thanks! I appreciate that.
I was 100% with DC after that 1st press conference
Me too, but honestly I was fired up when Sheila took over and she hired Chris Speilman. I just sensed her passion from the get go. That was the beginning of the momentum to finding Brad and Dan!
If this video doesn't get you pumped for what this lions team has done and will do sky is the limit for this team GRIT!!!!!!!!
💯 Let’s go!!
I just wish we'd have kicked a field goal but I understand. Forward down the field. A team that will not wield
The lessons I learned from playing on a TEAM ,has followed me all my life .
For sure! Same here
Detroit is having their own attitude era and Dan Campbell is their Stone Cold Steve Austin
He really shows what a true man really is about.
Dan Campbell is going to go into the Hall of Fame as the Greatest Head Coach ever! Mark my words!!!
I can HONESTLY say I believed in Dan and Brad from day one. My family thought I was nuts . But you could see the team fight in the first season . And it's been steady improvement since.
I like how DC takes responsibility when things go wrong, and credits others when thing are good. He protects his team and they know it.
We love ya, Dan!!!❤
You do GREAT work brotha'!
I loved what you said about how MCDC's mentality has bled into the fans and how it feels like we are ALL part of his brotherhood.
We feel it, the team feels it, Dan has willed it into existence.
THIS TEAM WILL WIN A SB 🏆 IN THE NEXT 3 YEARS.
But why wait? Lions 2024 SB 🏆 CHAMPS!!!
Thanks! I agree! I honestly believe we all feel like we are a part of what he’s built.
About winning the next Super Bowl........A couple months ago, I felt the same way. That was before free agency and the draft, so I put my money where my mouth is by putting $200 on Detroit Lions to win it all this season at a Sportsbook offering me $2600 for my bet winning out.
Imagine how much better I'm feeling after free agency and the draft. 😉😀😃😄😁
This is the best MCDC video I have seen since it is the only one, that I know of, which focuses specifically on his leadership. When this is all said and done, Dan Campbell has a chance to go down as one of the the greatest examples of leadership in sports history.
Great job Mike! If I can make a request, I would love to see a "Story of Dan Campbell" and a "Story of Brad Holmes" Video one day. Keep it up!
Thank you! I can definitely try to make a Brad Holmes video eventually. Him and Campbell are a perfect match
I’ve been a lifetime fan of the lions and I have never been happier then watching under MCDC. I finally can look forward to football season and not being the laughing stock of my friends and coworkers. Also if I can make a suggestion for a video how about the first domino of change. Our amazing owner Shiela!
I agree! Yes, eventually I can do a video on Sheila if I can find enough content.
Great video! I have been a Lions fan for 45 years and there has never been an era anything close to this in my lifetime this is all thanks to Dan, Brad, Sheila and company. Dan Campbell for President!!! #OnePride
He’s got my vote!
As a die hard long suffering Lions fan I've been loving every minute of the Dan Campbell era.
I am with you on that statement. I have been a Lions fan from the Billy Sims Dexter Bussey days. Love me Some Dane Campbell
The greatest move Sheila did when she finally got to run the team that she always loved, was making a call to Chris Speilman. He helped her pick all the right pieces. Always admired Speilman, he went through some very tough challenges. It broke my heart when his wife passed away. Incredible human being.
He should never coach anywhere else ever again. Lifetime contract
HIS ATTITUDE IS INFECTIOUS
that was really good. nice work.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing. Great job on the production of these videos. I really appreciate the quality of the production and hard work you put into these. As soon as I come across one of your vids, I'm excited to watch it immediately. It's hard to find high quality content in a sea of quantity.
Thank you! I really appreciate that. It’s a lot of hard work but a lot of fun
Dan Campbell is Detroit Lions football! Tough and GRIT! He's gonna get this team to the Super Bowl and it would be poetic for this man to go from 0-16 as a member of the Lions in 2008 to hopefully winning the Super Bowl! 🏉
Anyone noticed the progression of wins from year to year.
Go lions!
None of this would be possible without sheila
💯
Agree!! She quickly hired Chris Speilman and it was the beginning of building a new culture and identity!
This team has single-handedly changed how people view Detroit. MCDC BABY! LFGFTP
Dan has done nothing but ooze passion desire and genuine love for this organization since before he even got the job. He will go down as the greatest coach in detroit Sports History. This guy is doing something really special here
Every coach should be more like Dan.
Awesome video bro
Thanks!
Great video man. Got me so hype for 24-25 season. GO LIONS #OnePride
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tears of Joy always running down my face lets fuking go Lions!
WOW! - goose bumps and tears... I'm 68 years old and the Lions have ALWAYS sucked... From Shiela on down the team is first and foremost a TEAM... Brad and Dan are two of my heroes... One Pride!
Another great video Mike. Can't wait until you get to 10k subs. You deserve it. Keep them coming.
Thanks! I appreciate that
I don't like Dan Cambell...I Love Him! Shelia, Brad, and Chris deserve a lot of credit in turning our franchise around, but MCDC IS the tone setter for this team. His vision for his staff and his players and how he wants them to function in their collective units and as a whole is something special to watch on game day. The passion, the grit, the toughness, the energy, the physicality, the scheme, the execution on the field is high level because they have set a high standard for themselves and hold each other accountable each and every day.
This team at this point in time reminds me of the 87' Detroit Pistons and the 95' Red Wings. Both franchises had to shake off that losing stigma. It all started with ownership, having the right GM and Head Coach, and finding the players who love to play, who love to play for each other, who love to fight, won't except losing, and have the will to persevere through all adversity and finally win. The Pistons and Red Wings lost in horrific fashion those years trying to win a championship, but they never folded. They never lost sight on the main goal, to become champions. Each team went on to win multiple championships, and here's hoping the Detroit Lions can win their first Super Bowl in 2024 after having suffered the heartbreaking defeat in 2023. I know they have it in them to do it.
Great video. Thanks for posting so I could wake up to some Freakin' Awesome Dan Campbell this morning!
💯 I appreciate the comment. Glad you enjoyed the video. MCDC is awesome!
The most mature team I've seen in my time. And it started day one with the front office and coaches. in with draft picks and free agents they have brought in men with high intelligence not 20 year old kids who act like teenagers thanks for everyone's effort
💯
To do what they have done, to so completely turn the ship around and become this cohesive skilled group that wins, and to do it in such a short time is incredible. I know other teams have turned around from losing quickly too and even faster than we did, but not with our history. Not with 60 years of baggage and hell being drug along.
To really think about it, Sheila took over a team that was saddled with bad contracts, little true talent. No self respect or esteem, no one working together in the front offices. And she changed that whole vibe promoting working together and identifying good people, hiring them, giving them the tools to work and letting them do their jobs. And standing by them.
Holmes took over a team that was a mountain of bad with no talent for scouting talent and the right guys. And overnight it felt like he righted the ship and drafted us so many guys that are so exciting to watch, talented and the right mindset. Cleaned up the contracts to have us set to be able to keep our core together for a long time. And works so well with Campbell like they've worked together forever.
And Campbell, what a freaking dude. To take over the worst culture, so many years of failure. And to embrace the challenge and to do what he's done to make us a winner, a place people want to come to. He makes us all want to suit up and run through walls all day for him.
To be a fan through so much suck and to now get to experience success, so thankful those 3 came together with the vision and leadership to make this happen.
💯 well put
Love that you used the Pardon My Take boys, they really do love talking GRIT with MCDC
Those guys are great!
Can tell you’ve been putting in the work man! Keep up the good work and thank you for showing the love we got in Detroit.
Thank you! It’s a lot of work but a lot of fun
Facts. I also actually listened to the ENTIRE 1ST presser. Immediately i was relieved. I knew he had a damn good mindset
#1 one thing I felt he did was Detroit felt disconnected and he brought in his heart' everything about him feels like Sparta! Real. Good job coach from a Bears fan
Great video man!! As a diehard lions fan of 30+ years i have never been happier with the leadership and direction of our squad!!! LIFE IS FINALLY GOOD, FELLOW LIONS FANS!!!!
Wow. This video is fantastic. It took quite a bit of work to put this together. Thank you.
Thank you! It’s a lot of work but a lot of fun as well
You did a hell of a job Mike. Well done!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for this, Mike! I'm in tears right now just thinking about the Lions, the City of Detroit, and the great people tthere that deserve to experience the NFL Championship.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Me and all my homies love when Zarka posts 🦁
Lol. Thanks
One of the best MCDC films done. Very well put together and edited. Thank you.
Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed it. He’s awesome
He should have been coach of the year.
It's a beautiful thing❤
I am so happy that Dan and Brad are getting all this spotlight. However, I really believe Sheila Ford Hamp should have her own video. I have seen snipits of her amazing life, but she deserves a well made video like this one!!! Who know's, after next year maybe 💫PAPER LION 2.O💫??? GO LIONS AND GO SHEILA!!!💙🏈
I'm only halfway through, and it's awesome. Thank you brotha!
Man I’m next door in Indiana! Before we got the colts I was and still am a Detroit Lions fan! I have a Barry Sanders jersey in my closet that I wear every year on the beginning of the season! Go Lions!
Love coach Dan. Beautifully made video my friend. You killed this one
Thank you so much for this ! MCDC is the man forever ♾️ Long time fan from Florida and seen it from ‘09 to be in Detroit itself that we’ll rise up one day. Dan Campbell forever and Metallica alone is the best dawg
This is the kind of leadership the Tigers desperately need
Facts! Lol
Dan and Brad get it. They know that Football Character, GRIT, Matters. It’s a force multiplier. All these players at this level have talent. It’s the intestinal fortitude, the never say die, the work effort, the 200 on the Juggs machine, that makes the difference. Anyone who says that’s just coach speak, that it doesn’t matter, has never been a part of a real team, a real family. They just don’t get it and never will. They are the ones still stuck in SOL land. And that’s a them problem. I know I’m right, I’ve been there on a team of gritty class C HS players that damn near upset the class B team to advance to the class A big Boys from Brother Rice for the Catholic league state championship. That team scared them so bad they changed the playoffs after ‘75,,,,, forever. This team, this time, this place, this leadership…. They are special. SB or Bust #OnePride #LetsGoLions
💯
FOXXY knew it day ONE. #MCDC.
PS awesome video as always Mike.
❤🎉
Thanks! I agree. Foxxy called it. Lol
Great video mike! I've watched it twice now!
I am not a football fan. I understand the game and how it works, but I am not a fan. I am a Lions fan. There’s a difference. I care because the Lions care - I can sense that and feel it with every fiber of my being. And it makes me proud to be from Detroit.
It's Who can Take a punch And KEEPING ON GOING !!!!!!!!!
That was an awesome video. It has me so hype about the upcoming season. As a life long Lions fan I get just as emotional as Dan thinking about all the years of adversity this team has been through but it's our time to shine. What an incredilbe story it would be if they went on to win the Super Bowl. LETS GO LIONS!!!!!!
I'm feeling really down and out today. With life problems, etc etc.
I did a search for Dan Cambell video's just to get me out of this funk, and press on with my day.
It worked. Thank you for making this video. Thank you. Dan Cambell.
Happy to help get you out of that funk! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Yes sir
Very, very well done!
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
Gotta Love MCDC!!! He has done what he said he would do. And this is just the start!! BH has been a HUGE part of it obviously but BH and MCDC are a perfect match! Go Lions!!
💯
Great video! Sometimes I have to pinch myself because if you asked me 3 years ago if the Lions would be knocking on the door of being a legitimate TEAM I don’t know that my answer would have been yes. After last season I was mildly disappointed with the finality but so damn excited for the ride we were on. This is our time now and you can feel it and everyone else feels it too. It’s a great time to be a Lion. ONE PRIDE 🦁
💯
Yeppers....All THE Fu.....Way MICHIGAN....NO THANK YOU For SHARING ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ It's Hard Living in Rockford. But WHEN can Will Listen to ALL about Our DETROIT LION'S ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
Well done video. You captured the feeling of hope we have as Lions fans.
Thank you! I appreciate that.
If they have another season like they had this past he's got to be considered for Coach of the Year
💯
Ravens fan but love the MCDC Lions
Wonderful job. The editing was right on point.
Thank you! I appreciate that.
Great video bro. Love coach he's was 100% best choice to right this ship I can't wait for him to bring the Lombardi trophy to Detriot. One Pride!!!
Great Take…👍🏾👍🏾
#OnePride✊🏾🦁💙
Mike, this is outstanding! Thank you!😊
Dan is a hero to me 💪🦁
Same here!
I wish my stepdad could see this era of lions. He died in 2017 😢 1958 to 2017 so he never saw good
Sorry to hear that. The Lions are definitely doing something special these days.
@@zarka223yeah definitely you can just tell this is something special here
I can tell you that he is watching , Glad you shared.
@@thomshin2460 it's just crazy man sometimes I feel like he's watching with me in spirit
Mine too..... 2013.... he loved the lions and thought they were going to be great every year, lol...
Your videos catch the essence of what is going on in Allen Park. Thanks for paying attention and expressing it so well. Character and Chemistry can overcome anything.
There was an old show the courtship of eddie's father, which had a song ... Let me tell you about my best friend.
When I think about Dan and Brad that song comes to mind. They look like they are having so much fun. I just want to contribute to the Lions in some way, because I think that spirit is catchy. I want to come down with what has infected Allen Park.
Really well put together Mike. Bravo!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Great job on the video...especially getting the audio pretty consistent considering there were so many videos to edit in.
Thank you! It’s a lot of work but a lot of fun
Man’s man
Dan is great coach and done a lot for the lions, but also his own worst enemy. His decision making in the playoffs last year was ridiculous. They had it in their hands and he blew it for his whole organization. It’s almost like he can’t help himself and finds ways to blow leads. And it’s not the first time he’s been self destructive with decision making. He needs to mature as a coach to make smarter decisions. He will be very successful and most likely a Super Bowl winning coach if he can contain his urge to make bad decisions.
Great job, awesome to see all this in retrospect
Thanks! I wanted to show how Dan Campbell basically laid out what they did in his intro press conference.
You know what my brother? Detroit Lions fans will watch this video, and still go out and think we have to have this player or that player to take us over the hump. That means they totally missed the point of your beautiful video. We are a brotherhood now, made up of compatibility. Our coaches are all made up of compatibility. Our front office is all made up of compatibility. We're not just looking for the top 10 dude in the league, or in the draft to come here. If you're not made up of the qualifying factors of a Detroit Lion, then you don't belong here. I just don't understand why the majority of our fanbase doesn't see that yet. I just don't. We have visions for everyone on our roster and practice squad who make it each year. Pay attention people, instead of living in some make-believe Madden universe. Thanks, Mike, once again, your work is profound my guy!
Thanks! I really appreciate it. MCDC said from his intro press conference that compatibility is more important than talent
MC/DC is a master at manifesting.
Very well done editing and overall video on a inspiring coach.
Glad you enjoyed it!
