# Jason McIntyre: Guest-hosting The Herd, Jason McIntyre gave season win-total picks (overs on the Lions, Eagles and Jaguars; the Patriots as an 8-9 win team), ranked their top 10 NFL quarterbacks with Josh Allen first, and laid out full playoff, conference championship and Super Bowl predictions ending with the Rams beating the Texans. **Claimed:** Aug 1, 2026 **Pundit:** Jason McIntyre — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/jason-mcintyre **Outlet:** The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://omny.fm/shows/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd/best-of-the-herd-nfl-over-unders-top-10-nfl-qbs-nfl-playoff-predictions 9 claims — 4 season win totals, 2 conference champions, 1 division winner, 1 playoff pick and 1 surprise team call — the 8 we can check each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of the 8 calls we can check have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. The other one was too vague to check, so it is not graded. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 2. > The Rams, led by Matt Stafford, win another super Bowl, cementing his Hall of Fame candidacy. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Philadelphia Eagles to win the division** - Kind: Division Winners · About: Philadelphia Eagles - Verdict: not settled yet - “This is probably an eight or nine win team still in the wildcard hunt, but definitely under ten and a half for the New England Patriots.” - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: New England Patriots - Verdict: too vague to check - **Detroit Lions to finish with 11 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Detroit Lions - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacksonville Jaguars to finish with 9 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Jacksonville Jaguars - Verdict: not settled yet - **Minnesota Vikings to beat expectations** - Kind: Surprise Team Calls · About: Minnesota Vikings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Houston Texans to reach the Super Bowl** - Kind: Conference Champions · About: Houston Texans - Verdict: not settled yet - **Philadelphia Eagles to finish with 11 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Philadelphia Eagles - Verdict: not settled yet - **Los Angeles Rams to reach the Super Bowl** - Kind: Conference Champions · About: Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to make the playoffs** - Kind: Playoff Picks · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Philadelphia Eagles — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/eagles - New England Patriots — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/patriots - Detroit Lions — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/lions - Jacksonville Jaguars — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/jaguars - Minnesota Vikings — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/vikings - Houston Texans — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/texans - Los Angeles Rams — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/rams - Green Bay Packers — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/packers ## What others said about the same people - Jason Harmon on Max Brosmer: Harmon expects the Vikings' quarterback room to stay intact while Kyler Murray is hurt, and predicts Max Brosmer will be released and re-signed to the practice squad since Minnesota won't carry four QBs. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fa393501-3f38-481e-8e75-48125587e911 (scored 0) - Logan Lazarczyk on Kirk Cousins: Ahead of the trade deadline, they float three Raiders moves: shipping Kirk Cousins to Minnesota if the Vikings offer a second-round pick, selling Maxx Crosby to Dallas for a first-rounder plus, and acquiring Jaguars receiver Brian Thomas Jr. for a second- or third-round pick. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d0fd408a-7dcd-4e50-ac62-6b4510a8a800 (scored 100) - Logan Lazarczyk on Kirk Cousins: Lazarczyk expects the Raiders to be sellers before the trade deadline, suggesting Kirk Cousins could be dealt back to the Vikings and that benched interior lineman Jackson Powers-Johnson is a prime candidate to be traded somewhere. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fda03952-2ea6-4919-8114-0ebb127478d1 (scored 100) - Charean Williams on Odell Beckham Jr.: Williams writes that after releasing Odell Beckham Jr. to open a roster spot for Kirk Cousins, the Vikings will bring them back on the practice squad. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d4fd8cfb-3c75-4209-9e1a-d60e821f315b (scored 0) - Bobby Skinner on Stefon Diggs: Skinner predicted Daniel Jones signs with and wins the starting job in Indianapolis, Milton Williams to New England, Lavonte David back to Tampa, Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams to the Giants, DJ Reid to Arizona, Hassan Reddick to Washington and Justin Fields staying in Pittsburgh, plus alternates they had listed. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/6bc51663-60f7-4897-b5dc-40e284f869a2 (scored 0) - Justin Penik on Aaron Jones: Pennock predicted Sam Darnold to Pittsburgh, Zach Baun re-signing in Philadelphia, Charvarius Ward and Jamien Sherwood to Washington, Cam Robinson to Chicago as left tackle, Cam Bynum to the Jets, Darius Slayton to the Chargers, Aaron Jones back to Minnesota and Aaron Rodgers to the Giants. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/4af0c93c-46f5-4a2c-ae24-e6ffa81a6559 (scored 100) ## More season win totals The same kind of call, about other players and teams. - Nick Wright on Chicago Bears: Nick Wright lays out their season win-total picks (overs on Jaguars, Bears, Chiefs, Buccaneers, Raiders, Falcons;
