(WXYZ) — With his team out of playoff contention, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell said Monday the message shifts to playing the role of spoiler for other teams.

“The message is that we’ve got six (games) to go and we’re playing spoiler now," said Campbell. "We’re trying to ruin people’s day is what we’re trying to do."

Campbell said the focus internally will be to continue improving on things that have gone well and fixing was hasn't worked throughout Detroit's 0-10-1 start.

"I think now it’s all about how do we make these last six opponents kind of have to deal with what we’ve dealt with for the season? That’s the message.”
