Jake Johnson Picks Detroit Lions to Win Super Bowl

Nick from New Girl has the funniest take on Coach Dan Campbell as he picks the Lions.  Did I just watch Nick from 'New Girl' say that he wants to see the Detroit Lions "win the whole thing?"  Yes, Yes I did.  Jake Johnson, who happens to play one of my favorite characters on the sitcom 'New Girl' recently had a hilarious and inspiring take on the future of the Detroit Lions as he spoke with Pat McAfee on ESPN.

Former Indianapolis Colt punter turned sports analyst Pat McAfee has blown up on TikTok over the last few months.  It's likely because of video clips like the one from this week with Jake Johnson.  Johnson talks about how much he loves the excitement and grit that Coach Dan Campbell displays and says that he doesn't seem like a coach he's the kind of guy you bum a cigarette from outside a bar.
