Dan Campbell loving Germany, will be 'sick to our stomachs' if Lions lose

MUNICH – On Friday, Nov. 13, Detroit Lions sixth-year coach Dan Campbell delivered his first press conference in Germany, speaking the native language and promising to enjoy a German beer if the team wins their upcoming game against the New England Patriots. Inside the Clubheim 1900 restaurant on the FC Bayern Campus, the coach entertained over 100 international media members with laughs, insights into his favorite player Amon-Ra St. Brown, and stories about the importance of their first international game in 11 years.

Campbell emphasized his confidence in the team's readiness for the game, despite the grueling schedule that had them arriving a day after the Patriots. He detailed the team's acclimation process and the importance of staying focused on winning the game, as they didn't want to return home "sick to our stomachs." The Lions coach spoke to reporters from various countries, including Germany, Ireland, Italy, Switzerland, England, and the USA, and St. Brown held a press conference in English, German, and French.
