Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell is not downplaying the magnitude of this week's game against the Minnesota Vikings.
"This is big," Campbell said at his weekly news conference Monday. "It’s big for our players, it’s big for us. Shoot, it’s a big game for them. But man, look, they’re all special, but this is one of those games, this is why you’re into coaching, this is why you’re into playing, this is why you love the game of football. It’s going to be awesome.”
The Lions have won four of their past five games to climb back into the playoff race after a 1-6 start.
