NFL's Top Teams Shift as Rams Fall, Chiefs Rise
Developing
In Short: Colin Cowherd reevaluates his top 10 teams after Week 1, with the Los Angeles Rams dropping out due to Myles Garrett's injury.
In addition, Cohen is calling for four teams to prevail by two touchdowns or more, making the alternate lines very appealing.
This week's NFL bets include divisional matchups like the Bears, alongside the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs.
What's confirmed
- Cowherd’s Thoughts: "I have Buffalo in the Super Bowl. So again, like the Bengals and the Giants, I have Buffalo in the Super Bowl. Offensive coach, a greater sensibility, feel, touch and nuance with their star quarterback, told you D.J. Moore would fit. They drafted a lot of defensive guys in the last couple of years. Let's see if they can play. But two touchdown drives of 96-plus yards. I thought they were the best team I saw, considering the opposition. Nobody does that to the Texans' defense. Nobody does that to DeMeco Ryans. I mean, be honest… nobody does that. Josh Allen and the Bills did."
- Colin Cowherd dropped a whole new "Herd Hierarchy" on Tuesday's "The Herd with Colin Cowherd," featuring a seismic shift in his top 10 teams entering Week 2.
- The Los Angeles Rams also plummeted outside the rankings after a loss to the 49ers, followed by the news of Myles Garrett heading to injured reserve.
- Cowherd still believes in the Rams, but without Garrett on the field, he simply can't keep them in his top 10 as there are too many question marks.
- Given how unpredictable Week 1 turned out, plenty of teams still have time to work their way onto the list.
- But for now, here are Cowherd’s top 10 teams heading into Week 2.
What's still developing
- Of course, getting one team's point total is just half the battle in making the most of these NFL best bets.
- Week 1 gave us explosive offenses and a huge movement in the league rankings.
- The Houston Texans and Denver Broncos weren't the only ones left out of Cowherd's top 10.
- Tell me a better edge rushing tandem than those guys.
- [Malik] Nabers, Jaxson Dart, [Cam] Skattebo, Arvell Reese.
- Jaxson Dart, Skattebo, Reese, Burns, Abdul Carter, Andrew Thomas.
- I had them as the most improved team." Cowherd’s Thoughts: "Kansas City.
- Listen, maybe they're low, but what I watched last night was something called a run game.
