Dan Campbell has been waxing poetic about Eagles fans all week and I’m kind of starting to hate it. Now I know he’s a coach that was built in a lab with it’s soul purpose being to coach in front of Eagles fans, but still. Enough of the nicey nice. We’ve got an NFC Championship preview this weekend. All week he’s been praising the hostile environment Eagles fans used to create at Veterans Stadium and now at The Linc (starts at 11:15). Cut the shit:

🤣 Lions HC Dan Campbell funny on visiting Philly & Eagles fans

“You go some places & they wave at you, we’re so happy that you’re there to play against us. This is not one of those places! It’s as far from that as you can possible get. I love playing in atmosphere’s like that” pic.twitter.com/ZAKRlWCd68

Hey Dan? Knock it off. How am I supposed to build bulletin board material if you’re just going to give us amazing stories during your playing days at The Vet? Even if it might not be entirely true. I went back and watched that Michael Strahan play he was talking about (it was a pick-six) and it doesn’t look like Strahan ever gets close enough to Eagles fans for someone to pour 64 ounces of chew down his back. But I’ll give Campbell a pass. Getting your head bounced off the Vet turf once every year will cloud your memory.

Campbell was also asked about the Tush Push and of course he defended it:

#Lions HC Dan Campbell wants the Eagles’ tush-push to stay legal:

“I’m a purist. You take something out of the game, then we’re taking the next thing out of the game, and pretty soon we don’t have pads anymore. Then pretty soon you’re only playing 30 minutes. … They’ve got a… https://t.co/KCC7WZgi5f pic.twitter.com/kkVN06Pggi

This is psychological warfare and I’m not going to fall for it. I don’t care that he’s 100% right about the Tush Push. If you take it out of the game then the next thing the NFL bans is tackling.

You can say all the cool things you want all week, Dan. Your chill guy attitude isn’t going to fool me. I still know you want to take a bite out of 68,000 people’s kneecaps. I know you’re trying to throw us off our game because niceness creeps us out:

To bad for you it’s an 8:20 start on Sunday. Eagles fans are going to be in the lots by noon. Good luck, buddy. Plus there’s so much drama surrounding AJ Brown and the offense that most Eagles fans won’t even have the time to see all the nice things Campbell’s been saying about them. Maybe I shouldn’t even have written this now that I think about it…
