The Herd with Colin Cowherd

John reacts to the Houston Texans' 19-13 victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football. The big question: Is Caleb Williams starting to look like a bust after all the hype surrounding his No. 1 overall draft pick status? On the other hand, C.J. Stroud looked fantastic, leading a well-balanced Texans team that seems like a legitimate contender with strong performances on both offense and defense. Later, in this week's overrated/underrated segment, John takes a closer look at several teams and players. Did we underestimate just how bad the New York Giants really are? John also admits he may have overrated Bo Nix, as the rookie quarterback looked overwhelmed running Sean Payton's offense in the Broncos' loss to the Steelers. On the flip side, Cardinals QB Kyler Murray has matured and is playing at an elite level—when he's dialed in, he's one of the most dominant QBs in the league. 6:43 - Sunday Night Football Reaction 23:28 - Overrated or Underrated after Week 2 Follow John on Twitter [https://twitter.com/TheVolumeSports], Instagram and YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@johnmiddlekauff_volume] for the latest.

First Colin reacts to the Texans manhandling Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears to the tune of seven sacks and eleven QB hits and Colin wonders if the Texans are the second best team in the league (3:00). Then, Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the morning and afternoon games. They start with the Chiefs hanging on to beat the Bengals in a game that showed Kansas City has flaws but closes better than any team in the league (12:30). Then they pivot to the Saints crushing the Cowboys with their offense flying high under OC Klint Kubiak (26:00). They recap the Vikings dominating performance over the 49ers and why Sam Darnold looks like a new quarterback with head coach Kevin O’Connell (33:30).  Colin declares the Jets are NOT a playoff team because their offense is way too predictable and worries that Will Levis could lose the locker room FAST in Tennessee (48:00).  They remark on the transformation of the Chargers into being VERY MUCH a Jim Harbaugh style team and why they could win 12 games (58:00). They laud the explosiveness of the Cardinals offense with the addition of Marvin Harrison Jr (01:04:00), and predict that the Bengals are the team most primed for a turnaround (01:17:00). Finally, they weigh in on the Packers winning without Jordan Love and why they have serious concerns about Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson (01:20:00).

Richard Sherman reacts to Week 2 of the 2024 NFL season. Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers were knocked down to 1-1 after a shocking upset loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Will the Niners be able to right the ship with Jordan Mason filling in for Christian McCaffrey, who was put on IR and expected to miss at least 4 games? The Seattle Seahawks took control of the NFC West with an overtime victory over the New England Patriots, as Geno Smith fed DK Metcalf and the emerging Jaxon Smith-Njigba to lead the Seahawks to a 2-0 start. Richard also reacts to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs narrowly edging out Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals, the Detroit Lions dropping to 1-1 with a loss to Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens starting the season 0-2 with a surprising defeat to the Las Vegas Raiders, and Dak Prescott's Dallas Cowboys getting blown out by the New Orleans Saints. #volume #herd See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
