What the Detroit Lions said in the locker room after beating the Seahawks

Here’s a collection of postgame quotes from Detroit Lions coaches and players after Monday’s win over the Seattle Seahawks.

Then Campbell

On Jack Campbell’s forced fumble:

“It was big. We talked about the run game, we talked about explosives and then the turnover battle on offense and defense was going to be the key to this game. So really, we did that run battle and got the takeaway, it was huge. We got two takeaways which were large. In the end they had some explosives, but we also had a lot on offense. So that was the story of the game and that won it. That was quite a job for Jack. We talk about getting the strips, knockouts and then (Carlton Davis III) CD, picking it up and making something happen. That was an important point in the match.”

Jared Goff

On the offensive performance in Monday’s match:

‘Yes, that’s actually what we should do. I mean the defense has done a good job so far and we were able to get after them and I thought we had a good plan, I thought we executed it well. Just for me personally, I tried to take the right action every second and we had a good day.

Jameson Williams

What he learned about the team from the win:

“Early on, I talked to some people on the team and we wanted to score 40 points. So we fell short early, the first three games. We just have to score a lot, go out there and just… our offense, we know what we can do. We have a lot of weapons, we just have to put it in the game, man. Everyone got a piece of the pie today, so it was very well spread out, beat the other team, we won.”

Amon-Ra St. Brown

What it means for the team to be 3-1 entering the bye week:

“It means a lot. You wish it was 4-0, or 3-1, that’s not so bad. But quarter to six we have a bye week, some time for guys to rest who are not as healthy as us .” I would like them. Go back, we have a good team in Dallas when we get back. We have a bunch of playmakers on that team who can run and hit and cause consternation in your offense. We’re ready to go. but 3-1 is quite good for us. We just have to hold on for a week.”

Tim Patrick

What it means to contribute after missing the past two seasons with significant injuries:

“It feels good, man. I know what I’m capable of and I’m going to keep taking it one day at a time and being grateful for this opportunity. They didn’t have to sign me, but they did and they’re giving me opportunities, so I’m going making sure I make the most of it.”

Jac Campbell

On forcing DK Metcalf to fumble:

“Finally. It’s been a long time coming. I try to keep working on it every practice and I finally got it. My wife and I were joking last week because I was talking about it, I like watching guys get balls Fred Warner is here the best in. I just told her: I come home and I have scars on my hands. My hands are all messed up and I think, ‘One day I’m going to get one.’ But she always laughs because she says, ‘No, you’re not.'”

Taylor Decker

On beating the Seahawks for the first time in his career:

“I said earlier this week, I don’t think I’ve ever beaten them and this would be the first. That’s nothing, but it is true. It feels good to beat them and it feels good to come out here .” in primetime and have performed well offensively. We played a much more complete game than we have played so far this season.”

DJ reader

What he learned about the Lions through the first four games of the season:

“Resilient. We’re good at playing complementary football. We just play complementary football, man. Everyone picks each other up. We’ve got a lot of guys mixing in different groups in the team, so it’s a real close-knit team. We talk all together. So that’s really cool, you don’t see that everywhere.”

Aidan Hutchinson

On the excitement in Detroit with the Lions’ success and the Tigers making the playoffs:

“I heard the crowd go crazy when they put the Tigers logo on it. That was fun. It’s great, it’s just so good for the city. There’s so much electricity. I was trying to catch a Tigers game, but I don’t know if they’ll be home next week. So it’s so much fun, it’s great to be a part of it now.”

Kerby Joseph

If he has the best hands in the league among defensive backs:

‘No man, I have the best hands. Those guys really catch the ball, I’m not going to lie to you.”

Carlton Davis

On Amik Robertson’s impact on the defense:

“Amik Robertson, I look up to Amik, man. Because he fights and he has a dog inside him that you can’t even really teach. It shows up in every game. You know what kind of game you’re going to play.” from Amik, man. That’s all I have to say about Amik. He’s a dog, keep an eye on him.’

Amik Robertson

How he evaluated his performance in Monday’s match:

“There’s always levels, man. I just try to always be on the ball, and sometimes I get bored. They always call these personnel ‘tight ends’, so I just try to take my opportunities and play Lions football. Lions football, play fast, and I feel like that’s why I’m here. They believe in me, they trust me and that’s all you want. So when you go out there, I can play my style of football and use my instincts .I’m still getting better, everyone’s still getting better, it’s still early.
