After the Lions beat the Minnesota Vikings 31-9 on Sunday night to clinch the NFC North title and the conference's top seed, Dan Campbell gave one heck of a speech in the locker room.

"You guys look like you remember who the f--- you are," Campbell said as his players cheered. "That was awesome. That's a hell of a win, guys. All I can think about is, man, we've been forged in this stuff now. This has been three years in the making. Some of it four. That just doesn't happen you gotta work through it, grind through it, and go through the downs to get to the ups of where we're at. That was unbelievable, man.
His game balls went to running back Jahmyr Gibbs, cornerback Amik Robertson and linebacker Alex Azalone.Ryan Phillips is a senior writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
