Lions coach Dan Campbell says he has a ton of receipts. He isn’t ready to show them after big win
“There will be a time and place for that,” the Detroit Lions coach said Monday, a day after leading his team to a win over the Los Angeles Rams to give the franchise its first playoff win in 32 years.
Detroit, the NFC’s No. 2 seed, will host two playoff games in one postseason for the first time in franchise history in a divisional round matchup next Sunday against the winner of the Philadelphia-Tampa Bay game Monday night.
When the Lions gave Campbell his first chance to be a full-time NFL head coach nearly three years ago, some laughed at him when he said his teams would kick opponents in the teeth and “bite a kneecap off.”
When Campbell followed up his three-win debut season with a 1-6 record in 2022, he was the butt of more jokes.
