# Richard Sherman: Sherman gave first-four-game records for each NFC team. **Claimed:** Sep 1, 2026 **Pundit:** Richard Sherman — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/richard-sherman **Outlet:** The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast) — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/the-herd-with-colin-cowherd-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air or in an interview **Original:** https://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.omny.fm/d/clips/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/ff45d208-e4a7-42ba-a69c-af0000e830d1/04ba2a47-0480-4022-9d94-b4b70101e798/audio.mp3?in_playlist=bf391792-153e-41b3-9d3d-ae3300346ad8 16 checkable claims — 16 season win totals — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 16 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 16 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > That sounds like four, Mitchell. I feel good about them going four for four. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **San Francisco 49ers to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: San Francisco 49ers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Carolina Panthers to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Carolina Panthers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Chicago Bears to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Los Angeles Rams to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet - **Arizona Cardinals to finish with 1 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Arizona Cardinals - Verdict: not settled yet - **Philadelphia Eagles to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Philadelphia Eagles - Verdict: not settled yet - **New York Giants to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: New York Giants - Verdict: not settled yet - **Seattle Seahawks to finish with 4 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Washington Commanders to finish with 1 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Dallas Cowboys to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Dallas Cowboys - Verdict: not settled yet - **Tampa Bay Buccaneers to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Detroit Lions to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Detroit Lions - Verdict: not settled yet - **New Orleans Saints to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: New Orleans Saints - Verdict: not settled yet - **Minnesota Vikings to finish with 1 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Minnesota Vikings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Atlanta Falcons to finish with 2 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Atlanta Falcons - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay Packers to finish with 3 wins** - Kind: Season Win Totals · About: Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - San Francisco 49ers — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/49ers - Carolina Panthers — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/panthers - Chicago Bears — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/bears - Los Angeles Rams — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/rams - Arizona Cardinals — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/cardinals - Philadelphia Eagles — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/eagles - New York Giants — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/giants - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/seahawks - Washington Commanders — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/commanders - Dallas Cowboys — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/cowboys - Tampa Bay Buccaneers — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/buccaneers - Detroit Lions — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/lions - New Orleans Saints — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/saints - Minnesota Vikings — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/vikings - Atlanta Falcons — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/falcons - Green Bay Packers — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/packers ## What others said about the same people - Tyler Sullivan on Drew Lock: In an unsigned Week 2 odds roundup, the piece states that with Sam Darnold hurt, Drew Lock will likely start at quarterback for Seattle against Arizona. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/8a14b5e6-066b-457f-b409-a3ddbd512aca (scored 0) - Ralph Vacchiano on Tua Tagovailoa: Vacchiano ranks all 32 NFL teams entering the 2026 season, with the Rams first and Dolphins last.
