What the Detroit Lions said in the locker room after beating the Seahawks

Here is a collection of post-game quotes from Detroit Lions coaches and players following their win over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday.

Dan Campbell

On Jack Campbell's forced fumble:

“It was big. We talked about the running game, we talked about explosives and then the turnover battle between offense and defense was supposed to be the key to this game. So really, we did this run battle and got takeout, it was huge. We got two large takeaways. Ultimately they had a lot of explosives, but we also had a lot on offense. So that was the story of the game and that's what won it. That was a hell of a job from Jack. We're talking about getting the stripes, getting knockouts and then (Carlton Davis III) CD it and make something happen. That was an important point in the game.”

Jared Goff

On the offensive execution in Monday's game:

“Yes, that’s exactly what we should do. I mean, the defense did a good job up to that point and we were able to go against them and I thought we had a good plan, I thought we executed it well. Just for me personally, I just tried to make the right play every single snap and we had a good day.”

Jameson Williams

What he learned from beating the team:

“At the beginning I talked to some people in the team about how we wanted to get 40 points. So we came up short early in the first three games. We just have to score a lot, go out there and just – We know what we can do on offense, we just have to use it, everyone got a piece of the pie. If we outscore the other team, we win.”

Amon-Ra St. Brown

What it means for the team to go into the bye week at 3-1:

“That means a lot. You wish you could be 4-0 or 3-1, that's not so bad. But in the quarter we have a week off, some time for guys to rest who aren't as healthy as us. “I would like them. Come back, we have a good team in Dallas that can run and hit and is capable of causing confusion in your offense. But 3:1 is pretty good for us. We just have to take it one week at a time.

Tim Patrick

What it means to contribute after missing the last two seasons with significant injuries:

“It feels good, man. I know what I'm capable of and I'm just going to take it day by day and be grateful for this opportunity. They didn't have to sign me but they did and they're giving me chances so I'll make sure I make the most of it.”

Jack Campbell

On forcing DK Metcalf to fumble:

“Finally. It's been a long time. I try every workout to keep working on it and finally I did it. My wife and I were joking last week because I was talking about, I like watching boys get balls.” Fred Warner is the best at it. I just told her that I have scars all over my hands and I'm telling myself, 'One day I'll get one.' But she always laughs because she says, 'No, you don't.'”

Taylor Decker

On the first win against the Seahawks in his career:

“I said earlier this week: I don't think I've ever beaten her and this would be the first time. It's not a thing, but it is what it is. It feels good to beat them and it feels good to get out of here in prime time and played a much more complete game offensively than we have so far this season.

DJ Reader

What he learned about the Lions in the first four games of the season:

“Durable. We do a good job of playing complementary football. We just play complementary football, man. Everyone picks each other up. We have a lot of people mixing in different groups on the team, so it's a real thing. “We all talk to each other. That's really cool, you don't see that everywhere.

Aidan Hutchinson

On the excitement in Detroit with the Lions' success and the Tigers making the playoffs:

“I heard the crowd go crazy when they put the Tigers logo there. I don't know if they'll be home next week. It's so much fun, it's great to be a part of it now.

Kerby Joseph

Whether he has the best hands in the league among defensive backs:

“No, man, I have the best hands. These guys are catching the ball, I’m not going to lie to you.”

Carlton Davis

On Amik Robertson's impact on the defense:

“Amik Robertson, I look up to Amik, man. Because he fights and he has this dog inside him that you can't even really teach. This comes out in every game. You know what kind of plays you're going to make.” by Amik, man. That's all I have to say about Amik. He's a dog, keep watching him.

Amik Robertson

Here's how he rated his performance in Monday's game:

“There’s always levels, man. I just always try to stay on track and sometimes I get bored. They always call this staff 'tight ends,' so I just try to take advantage of my opportunities and play Lions football. Lions.” Football, play fast, and I feel like that’s why I’m here. They believe in me, they trust me and that's all you want. So when you go out I can play my style of football I'm still getting better, everyone's getting better, it's still early in the bye week, come back fresh and keep working on the little things.
