yesterday colin was calling jerry GM of the year
That was the most expected result ever: -No team specializes in lighting up bad Defenses like DET does -DAL specializes in not coming through after getting overhyped
Love how Cowherd gives a full and detailed explanation of how wrong he was. “I had the Cowboys”.
They don’t miss Ben Johnson, they miss Frank Ragnow. That’s the difference.
Flipflop is great content
Pickens lost millions of dollars in one game…dude showed his true colors
Way to flip the script 😂
“You get the bag or you get the boot” 😭
Always nice to hear Colin glazing Detroit after picking the other team
The blind leading the blind. Change direction just like wind.
