Take his opinions with a huge Boulder of salt.

His takes and opinions are most often garbage. He does it for the entertainment value and views but if you want to know how he truly feels about football you listen to his bets. He will poo on Baker Mayfield all day but when the line comes out, he takes the Browns.

I watched his show last night because Carson Palmer was on.  He (Colin) was talking about how the Browns were primed to win now, and all the talent they have.  He thinks - as he has stated ad nauseam, that Baker is holding them back.  
 

Liking the team, and disliking their QB, are two separate issues.

Starting to think Baker fked his wife or something. He has no reason to hate Baker as much as he does. Lol.

That's my point. Like I said his takes can be very hit or miss, but as a sports better Cowherd does pretty well because he doesn't account for his hottest of takes.

You originally said to take his opinions with a grain of salt and what I'm saying is that his Blazing 5 is not the same as his opinions and talking points each week. Most posters on this site and around the internet always go 'herp derp cowherd is garbage' and while I agree with most of it, his bets are not to be taken with a grain of salt.

He is right.

If we do straight up beat the Saints tomorrow the narrative around this team is going to change QUICKLY.  They are all going to be on our dicks so hard it'll make your head spin.  Monday morning it'll all be "Ohhhh, the Panthers are a team to watch this year in the NFC" "They're Certified Frisky" and poo like that....when 2 weeks before they all had us as one of the 3 worst teams in the NFL, and our QB as the worst starting QB on the planet.  Its hilarious to me how quickly they change their opinions.

Thats pretty crazy...Mayfield is a great QB.  He looked pretty awesome against KC last week.  He was going throw for throw with Mahomes all day.  That one INT at the end was his only really bad throw of the game.  I think he was trying to throw it away but the defender got his leg and he didnt have enough force behind the throw.

Of course he likes us now. Our QB is…..not Cam…

Interesting, he also really really likes Lamar and says people talking smack are full of poo, sticks up for him quite a bit, more than I personally would  He also loves Murray, Mahomes and Watson.

In fact Jackson, Mahomes, and Watson are in his top 5 QBs. (Side note Darnold is in his top 10, I find that bold).

Stop reading into what you want to an perpetuate inaccurate bullshit, it’s part of the problem. 

And this is coming from someone who despises Cowherd. When he starts blabbing I want to just throw something large and heavy at his face.

I've been watching/listening to Colin for over 10 years and yeah his takes are often garbage/wrong/terrible. Like when he thought Chiefs would crush the Bucs in the Super Bowl and Suns would crush the Bucks in NBA Finals. 

His knowledge of sports is pretty much non-existent. I remember when he was asked who he was taking in the Super Bowl and he said he liked the Colts cause Saints play in a domed stadium and Colts played in Miami (site of SB). What he didn't know was Colts also play in a domed stadium and Saints also played in Miami that season. Of course Saints crushed the Colts. He also recently claimed Steve Kerr punched out Michael Jordan when the entire world knows it was the other way around. He's a clueless dope. 

Btw, he went 40-41-2 last NFL season and 2-5-1 in playoffs.

Where is this list that has Sam in the Top 10?!?!  Thats a bold gambit by Cowherd.  Hes gotta be the only person on the planet who currently ranks Sam Darnold in the Top 10.  Although he may be ahead of the curve because I honestly think that it is possible this year for him to make that kind of a jump.  He showed arm talent as good or better than just about any QB we've had in a long time around here.  He reminds me a lot of Jake actually...

I don’t bet, so I defer to you.  Suppose he likes the Browns, in spite of Mayfield.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
