Dan Campbell has recently become a polarizing figure in Detroit sports. Just a few months ago Motor City Dan was the bell of the ball. During Hard Knocks on HBO, I think we all bought into the hype.
Now that the Detroit Lions have started the season 1-5 the tone around Detroit and the league has changed. So much so, Dan is getting blasted by former players on social media. Tyrell Crosby took to twitter to bash Campbell.
We saw this with Matt Patricia during his tenure here in Detroit. Glover Quinn and Darius Slay both took to twitter to bash the head coach.
I am surprised that 28 games into his coaching career here in Detroit its already gotten to a Matty P level of disgruntled players.
Tweet about Dan Campbell
You mean to tell me a coach who’s entire personality is letting you know their caffeine intake and using a million words to say nothing coherent ain’t it… especially when you have one of the best OLs at your disposal.

As you can see, Crosby holds nothing back. He attacks Dan on a personal level. Talking about his caffeine intake and how he can not put together coherent sentences.

Man I love you bro. But this is an awful take. You sound petty and salty. Not a good look on your part. I would delete this

Bro get over the fact that you got released, it’s nobody’s fault that you weren’t good enough to play on this team

As you can tell fans don’t all agree with Crosby’s take on Dan Campbell. But the shine has definitely been wearing off the second year Detroit Lions Head Coach.
