The Herd with Colin Cowherd

Colin’s top takes of the week.
First, he’s joined by John MIddlekauff, host of “3 and Out” on the Volume.
They start with the Giants win over the Texans, and credit JJ McCarthy for playing well filling in for the G men (2:30) and react to the Bengals storming back in the second half to dominate the Ravens (14:30). They credit Browns GM Andrew Berry for hitting on draft picks to help them overcome DeShaun Watson’s contract and start 5-2 (23:30).
Finally, they move to college football and start with USC getting destroyed by Wisconsin and Colin wonders whether Lincoln Riley’s time is running out (56:30)
Then, Colin is joined by 2x Super Bowl champion and host of “The Manningcast”, Eli Manning.
They start with JJ McCarthy looking like an entirely different quarterback playing for the Giants (45:00), and discuss Eli’s first game as a pro when it felt like things started coming together (47:15). They react to John Harbaugh’s hard-nosed style of coaching in New York (49:00), and talk about what Fernando Mendoza can learn from the sideline while Kirk Cousins starts (51:00).
Finally, they discuss the Seahawks flummoxing the Chiefs and whether the Chiefs should just throw out that result as an anomaly (53:30), and why Ed Reed was the player Eli faced in person that was just so much better in person (45:45).
