Herd Hierarchy: Colin Cowherd Ranks the 10 Best NFL Teams After Week 8 – November 3rd
(VIDEO SEGMENT AT BOTTOM OF PAGE)
10. Miami Dolphins (4-3) (Unranked)
“They’re on a three-game winning streak. They were out-gained by 326 yards and WON. They’re good, they’re not great. They have the number one scoring defense, and I think they’re well-coached. Being well-coached is good enough to be in this group. Like seriously, they can go over the top – the Saints CAN’T. When you get outgained by 326 yards and still WIN, and win convincingly? Miami is 10.”
9. Arizona Cardinals (5-2) (10)
“Kyler Murray leads all quarterbacks in rushing touchdowns and rushing yards. It’s SOMETHING. He’s had multiple touchdowns in every game, and he’s growing. They’re number one in the NFL in total offense and giving you around 250 passing yards a game, and 150 yards rushing. They are hard to defend and I would NOT want to play them. They’re certainly not the worst team in the NFC West. They are very explosive and are getting better on defense. I think they’re number nine."
8. Green Bay Packers (5-2) (7)
“Green Bay just got blown out. They’re too reliant on Davante Adams. They got rid of Blake Martinez, the linebacker, so now they’re lousy at that position. They’ve lost two of their last three games off a bye, and Minnesota pushed them around like a grocery cart for three and a half hours. But they’ve got Aaron Rodgers, they’re good with a lead, they’re competent at head coach, and very good at quarterback, but I wouldn’t trust them in a big spot.”
7. Tennessee Titans (5-2) (5)
“The Titans just got rolled by Cincinnati. They were good like three weeks ago. I love their coach, Derrick Henry is amazing, and Ryan Tannehill is pretty good, but they need a pass rush, so they’re limited. We don’t think they have a bad coach or they’re a bad team. It felt like that was a bad matchup with Cincinnati. That’s a good offense, and they couldn’t get a pass rush. Cincinnati’s offensive line stinks, so they couldn’t even take advantage of the one Cincinnati issue that’s really bad. I still like them. They just went and got a corner before the Trade Deadline, that’ll help their defense.”
6. Las Vegas Raiders (4-3) (Unranked)
“They’ve beaten the Chiefs, they’ve beaten the Saints, and I just watched them this weekend go to Cleveland and beat a really solid Cleveland team. Derek Carr is going to set every record in his career. He and Gruden work. He’s good and he’s a top 10 quarterback with Gruden in EVERYTHING. They got beat by Tampa during a COVID week, and the whole offensive line had a COVID scare and they looked like crap. Their schedule going forward is the third easiest in the league. They beat the Panthers, who I think are a really tough out, they beat the Saints, they beat the Chiefs, they beat the Browns, and I think they’re a top 6 team.”
