an NFC title game or doesn't get to a Super Bowl he'll be answering these questions probably the rest of his career in fact he was still answering those questions yesterday you know look it's uh hard to lose that way but um I'm I'm proud of that those guys in there proud of the staff and uh you know we did some really good things this year and and ultimately we improved which was the name of the game you know I think um unfortunately you got to live that to really understand why you're in this business and that's what it's for playoffs NFC Championship game Super Bowl um and now your eyes are open you know and our guys eyes are open and this should be the ultimate motivation to push forward and it will be for us it will be so we'll learn to move on it's weird to hear Dan Campbell and not hear that passion that excitement ready to bite your kneecaps that this this has hit hard and he's going to answer these questions about
going forward on fourth down not going forward on fourth down and I certainly understand it and and I yesterday I was thinking about this most of the afternoon and that is what do I want my coach to do we have an identity and I said yesterday it felt like Dan Campbell was coaching against Dan Campbell in these situations like this is who we are this is who I am was it the smart decision well we can look at the UN result and say no it wasn't but in the moment I understood it I also think and and talking to a former defensive coordinator yesterday afternoon and he said nobody's really talking about the Lions felt like we can't hold the ners back anymore that the ners were getting the ball and scoring and I think Dan Campbell may may have felt a little bit of that uh-oh you're up 24/7 everything's good until uh-oh and that's what you know this former coach told me it was the uh oh moment where there's no
turning back now you have to score every single time and maybe that's why he went for it on those two fourth Downs in the second half the one at the end of the half if that's your identity then go for it I I understand it you want to take the points but if that's your identity that's your knockout blow then you're up 28 to7 I get that the second half I think you got to factor in Detroit's defense was not slowing down the ners not at all yeah Paulie I think I have a poll off this um because if I feel bad for the Lions for a couple reasons but I think it's worse their loss on Sunday than if they made the Super Bowl and lost because you get to the Super Bowl you're in it you get two weeks you're the bell of the ball all of America's talking about Golf and and amanra for two weeks your town is alive you get two weeks like it's like a a pre parade and you missed on that opportunity like remember the Vikings a couple years ago
they were going to host the Super Bowl and play in the Super Bowl and even if they would have lost it that that two weeks would have been magical in in the town of Minneapolis and Detroit they missed out on that part of it and I think it's actually worse not making it than making it losing yeah because then everybody talks about you for two weeks and then they do features on your city and then they talk about revitalizing Downtown Detroit and then they have features on Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson and Wayne fonts or well maybe not Wayne font but you know they they they look at the flavor of your city and we won't get that I mean selfishly I wanted Buffalo to play Detroit in the Super Bowl I thought that that that would have been a CL a clash of the two best story lines there yes Don on the flip side if you're a lions fan do you walk around with your NFC champions hat and sweatshirt if you were to lose the
Super Bowl up to the individual I mean I I would be proud that we got there of course as soon as you wear it then people are going to say the same thing do you think that Coach Campbell should have gone for it on fourth down that's going to be the question it's like the Falcons in in the Super Bowl against the Patriots we kept wondering why are you trying to move the ball closer kick the field goal you're going to win the Super Bowl and then they drop back to pass and that was Dan Quinn by the way who was the head coach I know Kyle Shanahan gets criticized Dan Quinn was the how many times is the offensive coordinator get held more responsible than a head coach in a big game like that but that that happened in Atlanta yes see there's just something so tough about The Season's not over for everybody but it is for you yeah and especially when you're on sort of like a magical ride like that if you
want to call it it's as close to a Cinderella story as you can kind of get in in the NFL but it's not over for everybody cuz they're still going to play next week but you guys are out man is that tough and you're going to watch or you're going to you're going to try to watch and it's going to be tough because let's say the Niners win the Super Bowl I mean that makes it even worse because you're going to go God we had those guys on the ropes we could have won that easily and you're still going to be asking questions in the offseason also one other thing that Dan Campbell said that really stood out is he said I don't know if we'll ever get back here and I think it was a moment of honesty of you know if you would have said to the Eagles hey you guys are going to get back here next year well they didn't uh here's Dan Campbell it's a lesson learn and look I told those guys this may have been all
shot do I think that no do I believe that no however I I know how hard it is to get here I I'm well aware and it'll be it's going to be twice as hard to get back to this point next year than it was this year it is because we just assume and you know the poster child for this was Dan Marino Miami Dolphins second year in the league playing the ners in the Super Bowl they get blown out we're like Dan Marino and the Dolphins they're going to get back yes Mark even Aaron Rogers when he won young yeah oh he's winning three four more of these yeah yeah it's just it's so tricky in the NFL because of your scheduling if you you know you finish your schedule's harder uh what you know divisions are you playing The Following season a lot has to go your way what if you lose your coordinators like the eagles did they lost both their cord coordinators last year and they paid the price this year uh what if Ben
Johnson the offensive coordinator of the Lions gets the commander job so there's a lot of things that can happen in the off season or going into next season you're not surprising anybody everybody's going to expect you to be great not wow that's a cute St look at the Lions man okay I like the Lions you know they're fun to watch I don't know how good they are but they're fun to watch and then all of a sudden here they are on the doorstep of the Super Bowl and when I first started this at ESPN when I became a a full-time sports caster I put my fandom to the side now I root for stories because I didn't think it was fair that I grew up in Cincinnati and I might say something about the Pirates or the Steelers or the Browns and then have somebody read into that I didn't want that to happen I wanted to be unbiased but the one thing that you give up in a situation like that is these situations here the highest of
highs and the lowest of lows I don't experience that you know the pain because it means so much you care so much that's why it hurts so much and having that highest of highs when you know Paulie's Cubs won the World Series when the Red Sox won the World Series when you see these moments and you go that's why we're sports fans and I do miss that I I do miss the pain as strange as that's going to sound and this is as close as I felt that yesterday and today with the Lions because this is secondhand pain not even firsthand pain but it's understanding what it means to a city to a state to a franchise and that's what you root for you're rooting for that's that kind of story cuz you can tell that story for a long time yeah pun I bet people in Detroit are really glad we talked about their team today we haven't moved on to the Super Bowl we're still focus on the teams in it oh I know they were mad at
me yesterday because I was saying hey was it a successful season it is we were really empathetic with them yesterday you know we like shared I had a caller who said he wanted to strangle me understandable he didn't do it though no he did not all right no he said he wanted to reach into his laptop and strangle me which would be good TV but uh no I understand it it's like Buffalo you know you wide right like you just keep going you know then then you go back to Winter like Detroit Michigan's going back to Winter lines are done it's winter buffalo buffalo done it's winter that's when the literally cold har reality sets in like damn does it feel colder yeah all right Cen what's poll question we have today you know what I'm actually going to throw it over to well wait a minute let before we do that I'm going to get to one from Paulie okay and then I'm going to throw it over to my uh back row Wonder
Twin okay uh if for Lions fans which is tougher uh losing the NFC title game or the Super Bowl okay or which would be tougher since we only know the outcome of one of those yeah ouch um I think I think losing the Super Bowl is not as painful is losing cuz at least you got there yeah at least you got there now if I said you were up 24 to7 in the Super Bowl Atlanta hello oh man well that's unfortunate sorry Lions fans Todd did you have dubs got okay here we go okay one of them would be if your current age is double digits will the Lions reach the Super Bowl in your lifetime I think so they will not talking about the 10-year-olds and above okay that's a long time I I'm going to say yes I'm curious about one through nine though why they have like but it's not going to happen in this but the following nine years it probably will a seven or eight-year-old may see a Super Bowl when they much more
likely that they will remember when Boston had that run where every one of their teams was winning and they may have gone like one year without a championship imagine if you're like 12 years of age and just about every year of your life somebody some team in your city is winning a championship there and then that's when they're like we haven't won one in three years yeah poor kid hardship uh what else do you have to we got a few others okay are you less excited about the Super Bowl because it's Chiefs Niner the same as four years ago yes or no all right we'll save that one yeah here's and how has the presence of Taylor Swift affected your feelings toward the Chiefs I love KC more than ever I loathe them oddly unchanged yeah uh I'm oddly unchanged but I I don't get you know caught up in oh my God they show Taylor Swift you know does anybody get upset when they show Robert Craft at every Patriots game CBS feels obligated to
show oh there's Robert Craft and his son or Jerry Jones no I don't think people get up upset with that but Taylor Swift oh God she's always got to be on camera she has nothing to do with the camera work in a game yeah I I we're going to get a lot of Taylor Swift though Travis Kelce Travis Kelce retirement question mark if they win we'll talk about that one as well also Bill bellich what Bill bellich che's going to do over the next you know certainly during Super Bowl week that that'll be a topic of conversation whether it's actually on the radio or TV or behind the scenes that that'll be a discussion or two with Bill bich che's future we'll give you our thoughts on that as well anything else Todd uh one other one should the Super Bowl go back to being played the week after the conference Title Games choices are absolutely way too much hype for two weeks let's kick it off already no way I
enjoy the same story lines regurgitated for 14 days up until until why don't you just why don't you just say yes or no instead of projecting I think it's you can't just say absolutely in no way there has to be a description okay give me that again absolutely way too much hype for two weeks let's kick it off already or no way I enjoy the same story lines were regurgitated for 14 days up until the 9-hour pregame shows I think there's 7-hour pregame shows but yes I I get what you're saying there what you're don't want to hear about Mr Irrelevant again you know what I think they should just play game manager is Brock py a game manager play the game this Sunday let's go go I do like it where it's the the following week you know the the extra weekend there uh sometimes it gets a little dry when you're going ah what are we going to talk about today a little parched with storyline sometimes Jazz Hawks game

wherever you get your podcast according to DraftKings the ners are two-point favorites it's been fluctuating between 1 and two and probably will be staying in that vicinity leading up to the Super Bowl also odds to win the Super Bowl MVP who has the best odds Patrick moles does then it's Brock pie Christian mcaffrey Travis Kelce and Deo Samuel interesting the Niners are favored but the player favored to win the MVP is Patrick Mahomes Peter King kind enough to join us Pete's on the road he is uh was uh in San Francisco he was there with the Lions and the ners and uh you stayed there are you uh it's uh it's early out there Pete uh it's dark out there yeah where are you yeah I'm on my way to I'm on my way to do a story out here with the 49ers before I come back home to New York and the only way I could do it unfortunately is by doing something very early this morning and then I realized when the Great Todd Fritz asked me to be
on the show I said this is going to be dark out here where I am so anyway sorry about this weirdo uh you know this weirdo look this morning Dan hello darkness my old friend glad to have you glad to have you there uh can you tell us what you're doing with the 49ers I really can't but it's not any deep dark secret I just am not going to say anything until the column comes out next week okay uh what was your takea away from the Lion's perspective a few days you know remove from it well I I kind of split the baby on this Dan I think that Dan Campbell was fine in going for it on Fourth and two on his first series in the third quarter for a very simple reason that they had obliterated the San Francisco defense in the first half and they were playing great and on this particular Drive they had taken it down the field 47 yards the 49ers as of yet had not stopped that them and so it's Fourth and two and you
say hey we could be ahead 31 to1 let's do it let's go for it so I don't have a problem with that because remember I mean the reason why we're all talking about this honestly is is in large part because of jir gibbs's fumble you know basically right after the 49ers score to make it 2417 the second one I have a real problem with because you're down with 7 minutes and 36 seconds to go 2724 you have a 48 yard field goal and Dan when I meet when I tell you that being in that stadium that that day that night it was an absolutely beautiful day and the weather was Zero Factor at the time of that kick it was probably 65 degrees may you know no wind and you know so I don't know know a field goal kicker should be able to make a 48 yard field goal especially especially when you consider that if you're the Lions you have to think to yourself we're only going to get the ball one more time that's it we got to tie this game and
then we our defense has got to make a stop so that's how I look at those two things you've been in so many locker rooms over the year like I have secondhand pain for the Lions I'm not invested in the Lions but I feel I feel for that fan base and Dan Campbell and everybody because they may not get back here can you remember going into a locker room that had sort of a similar feel well the unfortunate thing is I didn't go into the Detroit locker room uh after the game uh but obviously there was Devastation in there um and and look I I think the one game that I thought of that the the G the the two teams were just like destroy or the team was distraught after the game was the Giants when they lost to the Bears in Chicago on the Shaun leetta whiffed punt now you got to be a person of a certain age to understand that and to remember it right Dan but I think honestly if you remember that moment you remember going into that
locker room after the game that the New York Giants would be fried and they were talking to Peter King he's joining us somewhere in the Bay Area and uh by candle light here it's it's like The Blair Witch Project uh Peter where yeah yeah I should have thought of that it's a great one Dan I should have thought of that the Ravens loss it feels like is being overshadowed by the Lions should it be man that was a bad game for the Baltimore Ravens it was a bad game in so many ways how many veteran guys on the Ravens made absolutely stupid plays and look you know you're competing out there and I understand it but Kyle vanoi is 32 years old he's one of the smartest guys you know on on that on that team and he headbutts Travis Kelce I mean how foolish is that ran Smith the defensive leader of that team $20 million a year man you know the the centerpiece of that defense this generation's Ray Lewis he's
not as good but that's what he's asked to do and he not only jumps offside which would be understandable but he plows over a guy and gets a 15 yard penalty I mean those things are just not possible not tolerable and that's what would really bother me and and look Lamar Jackson's throwing into triple coverage and again I'm not in any way dismissing that horrible decision but he's trying to make a play you know when nothing is going right for his team but overall this is another uh Mark in the column of Lamar Jackson's not very good in the playoffs he has had one great half in six playoff games that's just not good and and I know everybody will have different reasons for it and all that stuff but you know at the end of the day Dan he's been overall a lousy playoff quarterback and that can't be erased by two MVPs if I would have told you 30 years ago Vegas would hold the Super Bowl what would you have said yeah hey
if you had told me 20 years ago eight years ago I would have said you're out of your mind it'll never happen but the NFL got in bed with the gambling interests everybody's in bed with the gambling interest now everybody it's not just the NFL and it's not just every Sports League it's every Media company now yeah so what do you what do you expect honestly what do you expect the NFL is going to play a Super Bowl in Las Vegas it's totally insane to think about it but again that's the way our country is going right now yeah I I just worry because you know Commissioner Goodell was anti-gambling in 2015 and I I don't know if anything changed other than they realized what their piece of the pie was going to be and these other leagues realized their piece of the pie and what it was going to be Dan honestly it's the one the one reason why you can't blame the leagues quite honestly the one reason is very simple
is that the the legal system in our country the judicial system in our country said gambling's fine go ahead all you States you make your own rules on gambling now you make your own laws it's up to you and so now we have uh legalized Sports gambling in how many states in the country I don't know at least 20 and so you know that is what happened but the NFL uh not only uh you know embraced gambling it's gotten full on into bed with gambling and if if you can make money on it the NFL sniffs it out and figures it out I want you to place bill bellich in a media job where would it be what would he do I mean Rich Eisen had the best take when I talked to him the other day it was he said how about a coach cast with Nick Sabin where they go and stream on uh whatever either fox or or Paramount Plus or peacock or maybe even Amazon Prime you know they they they figure out a way for bichi and Sabin to work
together very light lifting and bichi could sort of change the narrative on who he is and what a dow you know sour uh antagonistic human being he is I think he needs to do that because look if you're going to hire a coach next hiring cycle and understand that when Bill bellich takes the sideline for your team he's going to be 73 years and five months old well you better think that you're hiring a guy who you can get along with because at the end the crafts really didn't get along with Bill bellich and and so he's got to change the narrative on who he is yeah I'm wondering you'd have to have a a strong host with Sabin and bellich because they'd have to kind of get in and out of segments there it couldn't be like the Mannings but I could see where those two guys and their friends have them uh you know dish on games um but also I was wondering here was one we were talking about you know Greg Olsen has done a
really good job with Fox this year yeah I'm excellent okay why why don't can you monetize Brady in the studio more than you can with him just being at a game I don't know that Dan I'm a little dubious about that because you know if you were one of six people in a studio is that worth for an hour of a pregame show in some of a postgame show is that worth the same as when 50 6 million people are watching your game and watching you I don't know what the ratings are for the pregame shows but let's say it's what is it I don't know eight or 10 million I don't even know but it's not huge because there are so many of them and so the fact is I think it would be hard to monetize that if I were Fox I wonder if you could put Brady in with Olen and maybe do a little uh hybrid a little combo platter there maybe you know the three man boo is a totally different animal yeah and who knows maybe Fox will decide to do it
but I think what happens then is you have the guy who's making what did he make this year 10 million I don't even know what what I shouldn't even say what did he make 10 I don't know what he made mhm but Brady obviously is making whatever it is 37 million and it would kind of seem absurd that the guy who everybody right now thinks is one of the best or the best making a quarter of what the big star is making yeah and out shining him in the booth it would just seem pretty weird to me yeah I I wonder we have Greg Olsen on the show tomorrow but um I thought that he did a you know really really good job in simplifying the game and thought he had a really good performance over the weekend we were just wondering if you put Brady in the studio let's say Fox's Studio there uh people want to see Tom Brady it's not I don't know if it's necessarily want to hear him but see him in the studio we'll find out yeah we'll find out and Dan I
think the other thing is I don't know who actually pays who looks at a game and says I'm gonna watch this I'm more eager to watch this because I love the analyst of the game I I mean maybe some people did that with John Madden I don't know but I tend to think that the vast vast vast majority are going to tune in if Boo the clown is the analyst on the game well I'm wondering about that too if you got 56 million that watch the game it's you know does Tom Brady bring more to that or if I put him in the studio you're going to watch the pregame maybe more and then you'll stay tuned for halftime and then you'll stay tuned for the post game as well like that would be something that I think you could say Brady is getting an audience keeping an audience more than you know who's broadcasting the game maybe but just Dan imagine if you were Fox right now and you go to Tom Brady and say hey I know you've been
working for the last six months and doing a lot of practice broadcasts and you've been and going around the country and meeting with different people and really honing your craft when you become an analyst at a game site and imagine fox goes to him now and said uh we want you to be in the studio if I'm Brady I'm saying a no B you got still got to pay me what I'm worth because this is not what you hired me to do what would a Super Bowl win mean for Patrick mAh I mean he's already had an absurd career he's already had the kind of career that onethird of the way through it that I'm pretty sure he'd make the Pro Football Hall of Fame if uh you know two weeks from now he never stepped on a football field again but what what it would mean is it would accelerate his process in winning a third Super Bowl to basically competing with Tom Brady uh to be the best ever because clearly if you win a third Super Bowl in
your first six years that's an absurd start to your career and again look Brady had sort of two careers he had that first half you know when he won three Super Bowls then he had a drought and then he three more so I I don't know what it would do other than to just sort of put an exclamation point on what everybody already thinks of him which is that he's got a very good chance of going down as the best of all time what would a Super Bowl do for Brock pie he's already an incredible story and I think if he wins this game I mean maybe possibly could be you know will shut up all the people who think the 49ers are winning in spite of Brock pie which is so ridiculously insane you know and I hate the holy analytics element that that basically gives that breath because a guy who's the quarterback of a winning football team you can't make excuses for that he has a lot to do with it he doesn't have
everything to do with it and he has an incredible Supporting Cast but let me ask you this question how great is Jared G's Supporting Cast it's probably the best supporting cast of Any quarterback in football and yet everybody talks about oh man G is really taking his game to the next level I mean at some point you're going to have to and again look Brock P's had his hiccups this year there's no question about it but you know every quarterback does and I just think the second half he played in that game and how he's played overall in his first whatever 25 28 games in the NFL it really should be enough for people now but for some it isn't great to talk to you Pete thanks for joining us and uh safe travels back thanks so much Dan appreciate it that's Peter King on the road doing something secretive what could it be what could it be for Peter we're going to find out next Monday the football morning in

about posting jobs sifting through resumés interviews with unqualified applicants move up to the pros go to express pros.com find the location nearest to you that's expresspros.com keep an eye on the joeel and beid story he didn't play in Denver and he didn't play in Portland I believe he's missed 12 games now you might say okay what's that me he has to play at least 65 games this year to qualify for postseason Awards so first team all NBA MVP and if you don't then uh and that's why the odds have changed this morning DraftKings has the odds for the NBA MVP and right now it's the Joker and uh Shay gilis Alexander is second then it's Joe lnb Luca and Giannis but Joe L&B says that the knee is bothering him and Miss back-to-back games there with Portland and Denver and I believe it's 12 12 games so we're not even at the All-Star break and he's missed 12 games so the odds of him staying healthy to be able
to play at least 65 games that's why the Joker is a a big uh favorite now after he missed these two games yes PA if you're the 76ers coaching staff and Joel embiid what's your motivation for the second half of the Season get enough games to play MVP or make sure you're completely healthy from the playoffs which is actually necessary well you got to be healthy but doesn't he have kickers in his contract and escalators yeah yeah that's going to be awkward that's why it's always tricky when they put incentives in a contract because it's a team game but then you want to be selfish too and it's just like you know receptions by you know in the NFL well that receiver is going to be like throw me the ball and the quarterback's going to be like you know I want to get it to the right guy well I got to get my incentives here or certain carries you know those are the kind of things I would think winds would be an
really important incentive for somebody because that's the bottom line you want to win you should win not hey my numbers are I'm going to play in just enough games I want Joel embiid healthy but uh it you know the reason why we're at this point because you know guys were sitting out and they weren't hurt they were you know basically just managing this now I'm going to manage the season and I'm going to sit out a couple of games that's why you know the commissioner put in you got to play at least 65 games and this is for all a Max contract I mean everything's attached to this playing 65 games or more but uh something to keep an eye on as we head into the second half of the season with Joe L&B yes Marvin yeah thanks Greg papovich this is all your fault ruined it for everybody oh big game of Leonard you I mean there's some players who took advantage of this load management but that's all from the pap
ofage tree cuz Kawhi Leonard played for Greg papait right for a little while right yeah they all big game of Miami on TNT well I know that one was that was tough let me send you home yeah we're we got Tim Duncan and Manu and Tony Parker don't even go like what commissioner is like what I'm gonna I'm going to find you a couple hundred thousand for that and I don't think papait blinked an eye yes Mar yeah David ster like he took that well yeah yes Paul why could an awful team have invented load management like Greg pich he he did it and then they won a bunch they won titles with load management like the Piston should be you know load managing right now yeah if like the 2004 Bulls invented load management we'd all be fine right now but the uh the Wizards beat the Spurs last night the Wizards have won back-to-back games for the first time this season they were the last team in the league to have consecutive win break
up the whiz the day the day St of the day St of the day this is the St of the day stat of the day brought to you by Panini America the official trading cards of The Dan Patrick Show I got a Grassroots campaign that I want to run by and I want you to tell me if you like it and what we can do so it's something to think about when it comes to when the Super Bowl is played if we have two weeks in between conference title games and the Super Bowl how about we play the Super Bowl on the Saturday instead of the Sunday 2 weeks after the AFC NFC Title Games who's with me everybody yes wouldn't it be great that you have all of this time so both teams get plenty of rest Saturday is the Super Bowl Sunday you get to recover Paulie I think you will get unanimous support once you get over the stupid awkwardness of removing the phrase Super Bowl Sunday which will bother me for about 3 minutes the idea that you could be Saturday put
the game even a little bit later start doesn't have to be 6:15 it could be 7: people could have party stay out later not worried about running home and being at work the next day you would I think you'd find almost unanimous support for that idea well if the commissioner would come on the program that I would tell him about that so maybe I could send this to Rich Eisen or somebody else that when they had the commissioner on maybe Stephen A Smith let that he can take credit for it but uh you know let him know this is what we're that we're starting the campaign here yes Todd even Ross Tucker and Mike Florio they with him on this very show yes maybe they could fill in for me just to tell tell him how about we do this Commish two weeks in between how about a Super Bowl Saturday night 1 hour in the books two more to go on this Tuesday more of your phone calls coming up I'm DNE way and I've been blessed to have so many titles
