Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast)’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.
Outside the room in 4 of 8 articles — always higher · when its writers strayed: 18.3 accuracy (3 settled)
Outside the room in 3 of 37 articles — always lower · when its writers strayed: 45.7 accuracy (3 settled)

I'm gonna do a top ten after the coaching hires, after free agency, and after the draft... here we go number ten. I think the Chiefs... Number nine would be Buffalo... number eight the Patriots... Number seven I would say the Detroit Lions... Number six... the Jaguars... I think the Chargers are going to feel like a Super Bowl team in September... I'd put the Bears at four... Number three the Denver Broncos... Number two... the Rams... Number One Seattle
Fernando Mendoza to be picked at number 1
Listen, you're gonna go to the Raiders. We can project that. I'm projecting you're going to go number one.
Seattle Seahawks to win the Super Bowl
So here is my Super Bowl pick, Seahawks versus Patriots... I'm going to take the Seahawks to win close.
Seattle Seahawks 24 — Patriots 20
I think it's low scoring... twenty four to twenty Seattle
Seattle Seahawks to beat Patriots
I think Seattle gets the lead here and kind of chokes them out. I don't see this game being close call.
New England Patriots to beat Seahawks
I think the New England Patriots are gonna win this game.
Will Howard to be 1st on the depth chart
Or yeah, I think Will Howard's gonna be their guy... They're saying we're not rebuilding. They say that in Pittsburgh if they go with Will Howard, is that a rebuild to you?
Matthew Stafford to win MVP
Let's look at Matt Stafford, who's going to probably win MVP. That's how he walks to the line of scrimmage.
Sam Darnold to finish top 10 at his position, by passing yards
Sam Donald looked like a stud, a top ten quarterback thanks to Kobiac.
New York Giants to make the playoffs
I think Harbaugh's going to crush it with the Giants. They're going to be a playoff team next year.
Las Vegas Raiders to pick at number 1
They'll get Fernando Mendoza with a number one pick.
Seattle Seahawks to win the Super Bowl
Seems like to me, hoisting a trophy in about ten twelve days. Have to reconsider where we put him.
Fernando Mendoza to be picked at number 1
They'll get Fernando Mendoza with a number one pick.
Sam Darnold to finish top 10 at his position, by passing yards
But I don't think it's crazy to say that Sam Darnold hoists a trophy. You gotta put him in the top ten.
Liam Cohen to win NFL Coach of the Year
Mike McDonald, Liam Cohen, who would be my call, and then Ben Johnson of the Bears, who probably would be my number two call.
Los Angeles Rams to beat Seahawks
I think the cleanest team, and Rams play a cleaner version than Seattle... That's why I like the Rams win this game.
Matthew Stafford to win MVP
but he led the NFL in passing yards. He is my MVP.
Mike Vrabel to win NFL Coach of the Year
I would Ben Johnson would be my two. Vrabel one Ben two.
New England Patriots to beat Broncos
bought New England at the most important position, has a sizeable advantage. Drake May over Jarrett Stidham, and I think that's the difference in the game.
Los Angeles Rams to pick “at the bottom of the first round for the next ten Years” (picks 1–32)
they're going to be at the bottom of the first round for the next ten Years
Mike Onwenu to finish top 5 at his position, by an unstated measure
One of the top four to five best guards in the NFL
Lamar Jackson to finish top 4 at his position, by passing yards
You still think Lamar is in that upper echelon of top four quarterbacks in the league. / I do
Buffalo Bills to beat Broncos
I just think Josh Josh Allen's the best player in the field... But if you make me make a pick, I guess I'm going to that direction.
Matthew Stafford to win MVP
I went with Matt Stafford and he's probably going to be the MVP.
Arch Manning to be picked at number 1
i think Arch manning probably is the number one pick next. Year
