On Monday, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell said after an offseason of not hiding from the fact that winning the Super Bowl is the goal this year, they are done setting their sights on the Lombardi Trophy and focused on goals that come well before that.
“I just told the team, ‘Let’s not talk about it anymore,’” Campbell said. “And it’s just this: Of course we do (want to win a Super Bowl), who doesn’t?”
We are not beholden to those same restrictions. The Super Bowl is the ultimate goal for this franchise, and for the first time in a very, very long time, that feels attainable.
