DETROIT (AP) — After speaking for more than eleven minutes and giving a message, general manager of the Detroit Lions Brad Holmes concluded his team’s season, which culminated in the NFC championship game, and discussed the team’s future. He then took questions.
At his season-ending news conference on Monday, Holmes stated, “I don’t want anybody to think that this was a one-shot, Cinderella, magical journey that just happened.” “No, it’s true. This is precisely what was intended to occur.
“I know you’re going through a season like this, and I know that based on history and past events, it’s easy to feel like this was a one-time, lucky, beautiful, cute story—a narrative I’m sick of hearing. None of that applied.”Detroit became the first NFL team to surrender a 17-point lead at halftime in a conference title game, falling 34–31 away to San Francisco, after winning two playoff games in a single playoffs for the first time since 1957.
Holmes admitted, “Look, that was a disappointment that we didn’t make it.” And once more, it wasn’t a case of “Man, we got lucky.” No, we didn’t achieve exactly what we had hoped for, but we still made great progress.
