Cowherd takes the Titans over their win total, arguing Cam Ward and Brian Callahan clear a weak schedule, and he backs New England as an eight-to-nine win team. He also pegs Syracuse QB Kyle McCord as a second-round-caliber pick.

I think I'm gonna take the Titans over.

    I've said Kyle McCord at Syracuse. I take him in the second round and feel pretty good... Then I watched them at Syracuse and I'm like, shit, that's a second round pick.

  • So New England was one of my overs... This is an eight to nine win team. And again the Jets are a bit lost... So I think New England's in play.

  • So I look at the over under on Tennessee and you know it's five and a half. Some have had it at six and a half. I think they clear that bar easily... and so I Titans to me earn over.
