I said that at the beginning. He claimed he hits 63% on NFL and over 65% in college.

no. continue to track. Cowherd is an arrogant know-it-all. I'd love to see what his yearly record turns out to be.
then we can print out this thread and mail it to him!

So his picks were tracked in a thread here last year (which I already linked to earlier in this thread) and he did great. He is on the radio every week giving his picks. I'm sure you can find others on the web who have tracked his picks in other seasons.
Not saying his picks should be followed, but why would he lie about his past record?

I like the guy, he's brash, entertaining. Couldn't stand Dan Patrick when he was on the air.

He replaced Kornheiser.

Dan Patrick is still on the air and is still the best in the business. Well, actually I like Jim Rome. If you don't get it, you don't get it. I understand.
FYI, just because your local affiliate doesn't carry a particular show anymore doesn't necessarily mean the show is off the air.

one good week and he's almost back to .500.
Cowherd is legit I tailed him for 2.5 years. Haven't followed him this year. I don't get the podcasts anymore. Funny thing is he's very open about how he does his show. For some reason he's very good at getting that 18 to middle 30's demographic.

I like the redskins over the rams. STL is bad road team. Redskin D is stout vs the run and good overall.

what was his record on college games this year...
haven't heard the guy's show much this year, but when I do catch him..... I find him very entertaining and insightful...... not sure if he translates much to picking winners anymore so than jimmy at bar or whatever, but at least he keeps your attention

I tend to side with many of his picks and I usually hammer CFB. His record is legit. He started off this season poorly in CFB, just like I did. What is weird is that last year, he and I both were money on CFB but horrible on the NFL and this year it's been almost the opposite. You have to take some of his picks with a grain of salt though because he's a huge Belichek/Patriot's homer. A couple of the guys on his show are good cappers and I think that's where he's getting his picks.

12-6 in his last 18 picks. Give him another couple weeks and he'll be solidly above .500.
He had a bad start, as many cappers do. Some start off great (Allen Eastman) and then struggle later, others start off slow before hitting their stride.

The Herd must be a poster on here. Someone is always giving him more wins than he has, then it has to be cleaned up. Just pick better, instead of coming on here and cooking the books.

Wow, bad streak. Oh well, maybe he will suck the rest of this season after all.
