Dan Campbell gives himself "a freaking F" for his performance in 2025

The Detroit Lions concluded their season with a 9-8 record, resulting in their absence from the postseason after previously winning the NFC North for two consecutive years. Head coach Dan Campbell, who has led the team since 2021, expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome, grading his performance as an "F" during his season-ending press conference. Despite a strong start, the Lions struggled late in the season, losing four out of their final five games. Campbell acknowledged the players' resilience and work ethic throughout the season, highlighting their commitment despite the challenging finish. The team narrowly missed playoff contention, with Campbell noting they were just one play away in critical games against Minnesota and Pittsburgh.
