Colin Cowherd Podcast - Wild Card Predic...

iHeartPodcasts and The Volume
About this episode

Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the final week of the NFL season!

They start with the firing of several NFL head coaches and debate which opening would be most attractive (4:00), break down why the Chicago Bears opening is NOT a good job (7:15) and explain why ownership is one of the most important factors for creating a successful franchise (15:30). 

They look ahead and preview the wild card matchups between the Chargers/Texans (25:15) and the Ravens/Steelers (27:00) and they offer up a huge potential move the Steelers could make to shake things up (29:30). They predict a tough trip to Buffalo for the Broncos but Colin explains why even a first round exit is a HUGE success for the Broncos and Sean Payton (31:15).

Colin explains why the Eagles are his favorite bet of the week over the Packers but John offers one big reason for caution (35:45). They dissect the upcoming matchup between the Rams and Vikings and Colin points to a big matchup problem the Vikings present for the Rams (41:00).

They pivot to college football and preview the upcoming game between Notre Dame and Penn State and they identify a couple huge advantages for Notre Dame that could lead to years of sustained success (49:00). Finally, they break down Texas vs. Ohio State and debate whether Steve Sarkisian or Ryan Day faces more pressure to win (59:00).
