    Lifelong Lions fan that saw Dan Campbell play TE for the Detroit Lions. I knew who he was before he got to Detroit. He had his best season in 2006.
    MCDC is just what the Doctor ordered becoming Head Coach of the Detroit Lions. He is everything that the franchise needed to inject a new vision, a new culture, a new attitude, a new way to prepare, a new way to compete, and finally, a consistent way to win football games.

    Dan Campbell sold himself to Lions fans in that intro presser, and it had nothing to do with kneecaps. If you listen to what he said BEFORE that, that's what sold him. Paraphrasing, he said we fans and press (didn't crap on the press) had heard it all before, so he wasn't going to give us win totals or blow smoke up everyone's butts. He knew he had a monumental task ahead of him and he didn't shy away from it by saying (like other coaches) this is a new start and the past doesn't matter because I wasn't here. He played in Detroit during the 0-16 season, and he knew the fan frustration. So he embraced it instead of shying away from it. He understood the assignment, and he was authentic, like everyone says. Had no idea at the time if he could actually coach, but I was willing to give him a chance. Dan Campbell is exactly what this organization needed to turn things around. And kudos to Brad Holmes for sticking with Campbell and making it work. Remember Campbell was hired before Holmes. Most GMs would have ego'd out and found an excuse to get rid of a coach they didn't hire.

    I have been a Lions fan since 1967, and we have never had a coach (or GM like Brad Holmes for that matter) like Dan Campbell. He makes NFL football fun again. For his players, his coaches, and especially for the fans. He has built a culture of confidence, competence, creativity, and risk taking that has spread through the entire organization. He is so different from the conservative and bland HCs we have had in the past. Joe Schmidt was the only competent HC the Lions have had before Dan.

    I was one of the few Lions fans that loved Dan Campbell's opening presser. I saw it as a guy that would be a leader of men, and seeing the previous regime of Matt Patricia, we definitely needed a leader of men. Which, he this team playing hard from the start his first year, we just didn't have the talent (also thanks to the previous regime) to put them in the win column. But it was things like the Ravens needed an NFL record long field goal to beat us. So, he had this team overachieving his first year, & now that this roster has talent we are seeing the results of that culture building turning into the win column

    I normally put zero stock in a first press conference for a coach. Most of what is said is boilerplate bullshit, or trying to sound tough because football requires sounding tough. Dan Campbell didn't use words like "tough" or "grit" as cliches. Those words were conveyed as a foundation of how the team was not just going to win, but refuse to lose without a fight. He knew his team would take shots and get knocked down. Tough and grit, to him, was a team that could take that blow and get the fuck back up.

    I became a Detroit Lions fan last year because of Dan Campbell and his team. They don't shrivel in big moments. 4th and goal from the 2, down by 3 with 5 seconds left - they ain't kicking that damn ball. Nor should they, in my opinion. (And not likely they'll do the predictable and highly defensible, handoff and run up the middle, straight into a 3,000 pound mountain of meat either.)...Football is a game. If you have a chance to win a game, you do it. Not pull a Kyle Shanahan, kick for the tie, then lose a coin toss and the game when the other team marches all the way down in overtime. DC took a lot of flack, and yeah he lost that one last year, but the Lions will be back, and more than likely they win, and win again. Football is a game. You play the game to win it. These ultra-conservative coaches who treat it like a business, and stay hidebound to their little cheat cards, they make me laugh at how such bad ass Alpha males are so afraid of losing that they settle for the delusional "safety" of a tie. In short, Coach Campbell actually has a pair, and I respect him, win or lose, for having the courage to go for the win...

    When Tiki brought up coaches who come in with an artificial persona, I immediately thought of Dan Campbell's predecessor in Detroit. Matt Patricia came to Detroit trying to be some Bill Belichick clone. He insulted some of the best players and ran them out of town. He chastised reporters. He answered zero questions. He created the single worst culture in the NFL. We went from that to the always authentic Dan Campbell and possibly the best culture in the history of the NFL. 😊
