The Herd with Colin Cowherd

Colin’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Thing’s First” on FS1. They start by discussing Barstool’s deal with Netflix and  the podcast space expanding from audio to video. They compare it to sports moving from radio to TV and explain why it isn’t “selling out”...it’s smart business (3:00).  They move to the criticism of the NBA Cup and they both agree the blowback is unfounded and  that the in-season tournament is a hit since the players bought in (19:00). Colin offers his new theory that explains the unprecedented drop off from Russell Wilson after seeing Tua on MNF. He argues that when smaller quarterbacks are afraid to get hit, they age overnight. They both agree that Tua’s career is likely over (29:45).  They discuss the evolution of Justin Herbert, and why they think he could win a title and an MVP under Jim Harbaugh (37:15). They also express sympathy for Joe Burrow after he gave multiple despondent press conferences and they debate whether his discontent is purely with the Bengals or if there are other factors (43:45). They also try to decipher what the trade value for Burrow would be if he forces a trade (58:00). Finally, Colin explains why Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza is an easy player to scout due to Indiana running an NFL style offense (1:00:30), and they discuss some of their bad sports bets (1:06:00).   (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

The WNBA’s Sophie Cunningham and Bravo’s West Wilson start by sending love and prayers to Australia, before diving headfirst into NFL news as the Kansas City Chiefs are officially eliminated from the playoffs, sparking big feelings and bigger takes. From there, it’s rapid-fire sports madness: Philip Rivers balling out for the Indianapolis Colts, Sophie reminiscing on nearly laying someone out on special teams while she was a high school kicker, her unfortunate middle finger mishap, and a behind-the-scenes story tale of Sophie’s visit to Adidas Headquarters. College football fans buckle up as Montana vs. Montana State reignites, Notre Dame raises eyebrows by skipping a bowl game, and Sophie and West attempt the impossible — ranking the drunkest NFL fan bases (yes, Bills Mafia gets their flowers). Things get even weirder (in the best way) with throwback footage of young West and “Ketchup Kenny,” news of John Cena retiring from WWE, a very real debate over whether Timothée Chalamet could be a rapper, and a look ahead to the FIFA World Cup coming to the U.S.00:00 - START3:40 - Sending love & prayers Australia 4:50 - Kansas City Chiefs Eliminated 11:10 - Phillip Rivers balls out 13:40 - Sophie’s Special Teams Almost tackle16:10 - Sophie’s messed up middle finger 17:00 - Sophie’s visit to Adidas Headquarters 20:30 - Montana vs Montana State Again! 23;30 - Notre Dame skips Bowl Game 27:20 - Ranking Drunkest NFL Fan Bases 30:00 - Shoutout to the Bills Mafia 31:26 - Young West & Ketchup Kenny Video 33:15 - John Cena retires from WWE 36:30 - Is Timothée Chalamet a rapper? 40:32 - Global Soccer Tournament in USA  Get an Arby's Double Roast Beef or Double Beef 'n Cheddar in-store or Doordashed today. https://www.arbys.com/Shop SKIMS Fits Everybody Collection at https://www.skims.com/showme #skimspartnerGive yourself the gift of luxury and make every moment comfortable.
