and Every Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collard here and

joining me today on the show is Colton Pouncey.

He covers the Detroit Lions for the athletic.

First time on the show.

Colton, how is training camp treating you buddy?

Yeah, it's been pretty good man just

won it down yesterday I think was the last open day they had a team scrimmage so yeah like I said

I'm ready to get back in like the regular season flow of things you know I'm ready

for the season start at this point. It's been a long long a training camp here, but ready to get going again for sure.

Where I want to start with you, Colton, is with Dan Campbell. I am very interested because Campbell's M.O. is being the

motivational head coach, the guy who brings all the energy, and I think that that

really worked very well for him,

taking over a team that was at the very bottom

and had been down with Matt Patricia for quite a while.

But now, Dan Gamble has to morph himself

into something a little bit different which is a guy that is

handling expectations for his team as they go into this year with Super Bowl expectations. They're one of the Super Bowl favorites. So tell me how Dan

Campbell has changed or how he is handling a very different vibe now instead of, hey let's take the next step let's take the next

step and pushing his players that way to now it's kind of super bowl or bust for them.

Yeah you know I think Dan's always cognizant of like expectations and how that's affecting

his players and you know I think on the first day training camp he told a story about

when he was a player with the New York Giants.
