Dan Campbell promises Detroit Lions will ‘bounce back' after tough loss to Bears
The Detroit Lions had an opportunity to pick up their 10th win of the season on Sunday afternoon, but the Chicago Bears had their own plans. Despite trailing 13-10 at halftime, the Bears dominated the third quarter on their way to a 28-13 win at Soldier Field. With the loss, the Lions dropped to 9-4 on the season, which is still good enough for first place in the NFC North. Following the game, head coach Dan Campbell insisted that his team will “bounce back” from today's loss.
Dan Campbell Says Detroit Lions Will Continue to Fight
While speaking to the media directly after the game, Dan Campbell vowed that his team would continue to fight.
“Man, I'm not in panic mode,” Campbell said. “I'm not losing confidence, man, we're good, we got four to go here, and uh, all we gotta do is get our discipline back, um, and continue to fight like we fight. And look, it wasn't our day today, man. We didn't handle it. And when you do that to yourself against a good team, that's what happens, and this is a good team. So, um, we'll clean it up, and move on. That's what competitors do. That's what good teams do.”
We got a pretty resilient team here,” Campbell added. “And we'll bounce back, man. It was a loss, and nobody feels worse about it than those guys do, and the coaches. I mean we all feel… and this is hard, it's a hard pill to swallow, but that only… the guys we got, it only motivates you to want to move on and get a win, that's what it does.”
