The Blazin’ 5 fires are burning. Colin Cowherd’s picks went 3-2 in Week 11 after going 4-1 in Week 10. That’s back-to-back winning weeks for the first time during the 2021 NFL season for “The Herd” host.
But Colin haters and faders can take some solace. During his season-long predictions, he said the Philadelphia Eagles would only win three games. The Birds beat the New Orleans Saints and improved to 5-6. Cowherd also picked the Saints (+2) to cover and upset the Eagles.
During Friday’s episode of “The Herd” he seems to cast quite a wide net for his Super Bowl LVI winners (and beyond). He named his “confetti quarterbacks”– the quarterbacks he can see winning the Super Bowl this year or in the future and holding the trophy as confetti rains overhead.
- Patrick Mahomes
- Josh Allen
- Dak Prescott
- Tom Brady
- Aaron Rodgers
- Kyler Murray

Indianapolis Colts (+7) vs. Buffalo Bills
Cowherd pick: Colts
Colin’s final score: Bills 26, Colts 23
Cowherd said:
“I like the Colts getting seven points even though I think Buffalo will win. It’s going to be rainy, wet weather. The Colts defense forces turnovers and I like their offense. The last seven games they are 5-2 and Wentz has 104 passer rating and has thrown zero interceptions in seven of his last eight starts. Do we overvalue the Bills because of a Mike Tyson quality to bury bad quarterbacks? They are a little overvalued. I think the game will be played between the 20s.”
Final score: Colts 41, Bills 16
Did Cowherd win? Yes
