After losing to the Rams on Sunday, the Lions are long shots to make the playoffs, a year after earning the No. 1 seed in the NFC. Lions head coach Dan Campbell says he doesn\u2019t want anyone on his team to accept that.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt can\u2019t be OK. It should burn at you. It should eat you up. Do not go numb to the losing,\u201d Campbell said.<\/p>\n
Campbell said the Rams showed the Lions who the best team in the NFC is this year, and the Lions have to recognize that they have plenty of work to do.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow you have first-hand knowledge of what the top of the NFC looks like,\u201d Campbell said. \u201cThat\u2019s them. So now you know. You know what it looks like you know what it is, and we\u2019re not there right now. Doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t be, but now we know what it looks like. We\u2019ve got to get better.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Lions are running out of time to get better, and they can\u2019t be OK with what they\u2019ve done this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After losing to the Rams on Sunday, the Lions are long shots to make the playoffs, a year…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":350211,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-350210","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350210","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=350210"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350210\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/350211"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=350210"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=350210"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=350210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
