The Colin Cowherd Podcast

Colin is joined by former NFL stars Leonard Fournette and Jarvis Landry, hosts of “4 and South” on the Volume. They discuss Leonard’s experience of joining the Tom Brady led Tampa Bay Bucs and eventually winning a Super Bowl, and what happened during their bye week that fixed the offense (4:00). Jarvis looks back fondly on the Browns team he played on with Baker Mayfield that made the playoffs, and why Covid helped the team focus (9:00). They also discuss the perception that Colin didn’t like Baker Mayfield, and why Colin didn’t like Baker as a fit for the Browns (12:00).  They talk about the trend of college football running backs skipping bowl games to avoid injury and Leonard revisists his decision to sit out LSU’s bowl game during his final year of college (18:00). Jarvis explains that in his final year in the NFL his love for the game hadn’t wavered despite his role diminishing on the field (25:00).  Leonard highlights Luke Kuechly as the first player he faced that he couldn’t beat physically (29:30) and Jarvis points to Darelle Revis as the cornerback he just couldn’t shake (31:00).  Finally, Leonard remembers the biggest surprise he faced on an NFL field (33:00) and Jarvis discusses the memories he has of the different quarterbacks he played with (37:00).

Colin’s top takes of the week. First, Colin is joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA playoffs. They begin with Colin explaining why he became a “fan” during Game 7 and why he was pulling for the Spurs dynasty to begin, and Jason highlights some of the adjustments the Spurs made to beat the defending champs (3:00). Colin marvels at the poise and composure an incredibly young Spurs team showed in a high pressure game 7 on the road, and they make the case for Wemby being the best player in the world (8:45). Colin argues that Thunder GM Sam Presti may have to look into trading for Giannis in order to compete with the Spurs going forward, but Jason argues that Presti should look to target someone in the draft (14:15). Then, Colin is joined by legendary sportswriter Ian O’Connor to talk about all things Knicks. They start with Colin’s theory that the Knicks began their resurgence after owner James Dolan stepped away to build the Sphere and became more distracted and hands-off from running the team and letting GM Leon Rose build the roster (24:30). They discuss the reasons behind Mike Brown’s success as head coach and why he’s been able to succeed when past coaches have failed, and the change he made to the role of Karl-Anthony Towns (29:45). They examine the Knicks supporting case and why their high effort, tough nosed style of basketball feels a bit like Villanova…but yet, it works (34:15 ). Finally, they discuss Jalen Brunson’s incredibly rare team friendly contract with the Knicks, and why he knew that ending the Knicks title drought would be worth far more than a few million dollars on his contract (38:30).

Colin’s top takes of the week. First, Colin Cowherd is joined by Ryen Russillo to discuss everything in sports & some fun non sports topics at the end. They start off reacting to the news that this season will be Aaron Rodgers' last in the NFL. They compare Rodgers' personality to Tom Brady's and discuss their careers. Next they hit a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Is that the only thing that can stop a San Antonio dynasty with Victor Wembanyama? They discuss the Spurs future as well.  Then, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to discuss the toughest NFL schedules, why international games are making travel even harder on teams, why the Bears schedule isn’t as difficult as advertised and why the expansion of the college football playoff will make the regular season better.

Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to talk football. They start with their reactions to the NFL schedule and discuss the 49ers incredibly brutal travel schedule and Colin argues it may be punishment from the league (3:15) and also how the addition of international games and new holiday games has created more tough scheduling (11:00). Colin also pushes back on the idea that the Bears have the toughest schedule (15:45). They move to Aaron Rodgers finally signing a one year deal with the Steelers and debate what type of season to expect from the veteran (27:30).  They pivot to college football looking to expand to a 24 team playoff and Colin explains why it will encourage teams to schedule better opponents during the season and will create a better regular season even if it creates more blowouts in the playoff (38:30). They also push back on the fan backlash to more NFLgames  being broadcast on streaming services (49:00). Finally, they examine the terrible quality of the games on the Sunday Night Football schedule and debate whether the NFL’s partnership with NBC could be nearing its end soon (1:00:00).  (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

Colin’s top takes of the week. First, he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to discuss why LeBron proved once again that he’s a better player & more of a winning player than Kevin Durant in the Lakers series win over the Rockets (3:00). They also break down why the Timberwolves have been underrated (12:00) and debate some potential offseason moves the Nuggets can make to get themselves back into title contention (15:00). Then, 'First Things First' Co-Host Danny Parkins joins Colin to look ahead to the NFL schedule release and give their over/unders for the Lions, Bears, Packers and Chiefs (24:15).

Colin’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Things First” at FS1. They start with Jaden Ivey being waived by the Chicago Bulls for anti-gay comments he made on social media, and they argue that creating disruptions in the locker room can outweigh other personal issues, that the rules aren’t applied equally to professional athletes based on their production & talent… and Ivey just wasn’t good enough on the court (3:00).  They pivot to Tiger Woods crashing his car in another suspected DUI, and discuss why his value is so high to the PGA and sponsors that they’ll never cut ties with him. They recap Tiger’s history of surgeries and why it’s likely he’s developed a reliance on opioids to deal with chronic pain and that he probably should never be behind the wheel of a car (17:00). They react to the potential of the NFL using replacement referees after contract talks broke down. Colin argues that NFL officials overwhelmingly get calls right and paying full-time officials won’t make the product better, and that the only argument for full-time refs is the NFL has the money. Danny believes HD television with multiple slow-motion replays has been the cause for so much complaining about the refs (28:00).  Finally, they preview and make their picks for the Final Four games between Uconn & Illinois (32:30), and Arizona vs. Michigan (37:45) and discuss why this is one of the greatest Final Four’s of all-time (42:00).  (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)
