Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where The Herd with Colin Cowherd (podcast)’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.

I have a hard time believing Buffalo is going to lose the first game in their brand new stadium ... So I think that's the one they're going to have a hard time winning. I got them 3-1.
Minnesota Vikings to finish with 9 wins
I think if they win nine games, that'd be considered a win.

And it's going to happen for you, Shador... but you will be QB1 before this year is over.
Maxx Crosby to move to Las Vegas Raiders
the Raiders... have really slow start written all over them to the point where they could be trading Max Crosby before the deadline
I think these two teams, in my opinion, are the best two teams in the NFL, Seahawks-Rams, one and two in my book.
Detroit Lions to win the division
I think the Lions have a combination of the best roster in division and the easiest schedule in the entire league this year.
