""Stay with it man. You guys are so close," Grier told Holmes. "You and Dan (Campbell) are doing things the right way.""
""We ended up winning a shootout against them that day and then after that they ended up going on a little roll and it's turned into the last couple years for them," Grier told ESPN. "I'm so happy for (Brad Holmes) and what he's accomplished.""
The Detroit Lions began the 2022 season 1-5 and suffered a fifth consecutive loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 8, a 31-27 comeback by Miami. Dolphins GM Chris Grier encouraged Lions GM Brad Holmes and praised Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell. Detroit made changes, firing defensive backs coach Aubrey Pleasant and trading Pro Bowl tight end T.J. Hockenson to the Vikings. Following those adjustments, the Lions won 11 straight games following a loss, the longest active streak in the NFL and the longest in franchise history. The winning run began in Week 9 of the 2022 season.
