Colin Cowherd
Welcome back to the Herd.
- [01:31]
Chris Felica
I'm Danny Parkins in for Colin. We'll talk some gambling with the Bear coming up in about 20 minutes. Very excited to be joining what I would say is the best show in sports television. First things first for this football season and going forward as FtF expands to three hours, which means I will be joining focus with our forces with our next guest, Chris Broussard. Brew, thank you for joining the Herd. We have football this week. There's a Hall of Fame game, there's top 10 lists, there's football. But then because it's Lebron and basketball, it finds a way. It finds a way into the headlines. What do you make of Nicola Jokic, his agent, being on a yacht in France with Lebron and Maverick Carter saying summer of 2025, perfect time to come up with big plans for fall of 2026. Like the picture is nothing. The caption is something. What is it to you?
- [02:34]
Colin Cowherd
Right. Well, first of all, let me say I can't wait to have you on the show in a few weeks when we expand the three hours on first things first.
- [02:42]
Chris Felica
So thank you.
- [02:43]
Colin Cowherd
What's already great is going to be even greater when you join us. So I'm excited about that. But as far as the Yic LeBron Maverick Carter photo, a lot of people are talking about LeBron joining forces with Jokic. I don't see that at all. Now what is possible he mentions, you know, fall of 2026, that is when LeBron will be a free agent. If he wanted to go play with Jokic on the veterans minimum or maybe the mid level exception, whatever they could offer him, then I guess that's possible. LeBron does like playing with high IQ players. He obviously has tons of respect for Jokic his game, so he could go have fun with that. I don't see that happening. But I think this was more about. Remember LeBron's best friend and business partner, Maverick Carter is starting this international league that presumably is going to try to compete with the NBA. And Jokic, his agent, has a ton of European players, as you might imagine. So I think it was more so about how they can work together and join forces for that league and what players might be able to play for it and so on and so forth than about LeBron teaming up with Yogic. As. As delicious as that would be, I don't see it happening.
- [04:07]
Chris Felica
So they're trolling a little bit because. No, no, yeah, they're trolling.
- [04:12]
Colin Cowherd
No one is thinking about LeBron may have even given him that, like this is how you word it. Because that's typical LeBron putting it out there, making us wonder and oh my gosh, could this happen. But I know I'd be floored if LeBron and Jokic ever played together, as would I.
- [04:32]
Chris Felica
You are a journalist, so you know the difference between journalism and pr. And Luka Doncic graces us on the COVID of Men's Health and Luka Doncic looks shredded. And Luka Doncic to me is doing some PR to get people like, yeah, he cares and he's a professional and he's working out. And I don't know if those images are doctored or whatever, but good for Luca for getting in shape. But beyond the pictures, I read the article and there are two mentions of LeBron James Brew in the article, both by the writer. Like normally athleticism is, you know, with LeBron James level biceps and you know, things like that.
- [05:16]
Colin Cowherd
Right.
- [05:16]
Chris Felica
And then there is a quote from Luka Doncic after he apparently credited witnessing Dirk Nowitzki early in his. Early in Lucas career. Dirk late in his career about how he worked out. I Want to put the quote up here for the FS1 audience. He said, you know, MJ and Kobe, you know, they really did a lot in their careers. They sacrificed a lot. And I'm thinking, I thought the narrative was that Luca was going to learn from Lebron how to take care of his body, but he doesn't credit LeBron in the article. What do you make of it?
- [05:49]
Colin Cowherd
Nothing.
- [05:50]
Chris Felica
Nothing.
- [05:51]
Colin Cowherd
And first of all, it might be PR the way Luca looks, but he had me at hello. I mean, my goodness, he looks, I'm sold. Dude looks awesome. And I think he's going to be better than ever. But to get to the LeBron MJ Kobe thing, we all know Luka has talked about his love for Lebron, watching him growing up and you know, modeling some of his play after LeBron. And I look, you're right, he said MJ and Kobe and who can fault him for that? Two all time greats, obviously, Kobe, a Laker great, but I and remember who he works for to some degree. He's a Jordan athlete, right? Yeah, he's a Jordan bred athlete. So he mentions Jordan, his shoe company. He mentions Kobe, the legend of the team that he plays for. But I'm going to be honest, Danny, when I saw this article, saw how Luka looked, read it about how he's changed and this summer's different for him. I gave a big shout out to LeBron James. Like this is a testament to LeBron James example and, and the impact it had on Luka Doncic. Like I Lee's been in the league six, seven years and I know we've always seen pictures of slim Luka in the summers, but this is clearly different. And he said as much that this is different this summer. I think he played with LeBron and saw as much physical ability as LeBron has, as much natural ability, as much size as and strength and athleticism as LeBron has. Naturally he goes above and beyond to become the player he is. Like, he's not just playing off his natural ability and giving you the basic, doing the basic workout that all the other NBA players do. We know he goes above and beyond. And I think that really clicked with Luka and I think he said, you know what, if I want to be as good as him, then I need to do something different. And he's going through two A days right now according to that article, so. But he didn't shout out. I shout out LeBron. You shout out LeBron. Why did you shout out LeBron? Cause it's his current teammate. You don't want to be all fawning over your current teammate. You got love for me. You followed my example. Nick Wrights followed my example. Y' all don't fawn over me. Y' all come at me. For some reason, you try to come at me, but you grew up watching me. You know, I mean, I get it. You know, I see you rather talk about, you know, somebody else that's not on the show with you. So I get it.

- [11:00]
Chris Felica
Okay, I'll thought about Colin Cowherd who isn't here, who isn't here, who lets me sit in his seat. All right, well, speaking of coming at each other, I know you have a lot of practice going at Nick's lists, but I feel like you really dislike my quarterback rankings. Brew. I feel I Parsons peak, we call it Parkins Peak on FtF. They asked me to do my top 10 here. I was like, I'll just bring it on over. It was an easy train transfer here. I look at that and I see a perfect, indisputable top 10. You see something different.
- [11:33]
Colin Cowherd
Yeah, well, first of all, look, you, you got the number one right? That I'll start positive. All right, you got the number one guy, right? And you can I would put Lamar too, but Josh Allen's fine. He's been better in the playoffs, so I'll give you that. But I have to put Lamar ahead of Joe Burrow. Joe Burrow some of his injuries, but hasn't been in the playoffs since 2022. He, I, I and I love Burrow, but I've never seen a player ride so much off of one playoff victory over Patrick Mahomes. You know, he's riding off of that. So I would have to switch Lamar and Burrow and have Burrow at 4. And then this is where it gets crazy. Is that the Justin Herbert that threw the four interceptions the last time we saw him in the playoff game?
- [12:19]
Chris Broussard
Two of them.
- [12:20]
Colin Cowherd
Is that the one?
- [12:21]
Chris Felica
Two of them were off this guy's hands. In fairness, two of them were off this guy's hands.
- [12:26]
Colin Cowherd
Okay.
- [12:26]
Chris Felica
Yeah.
- [12:26]
Colin Cowherd
Okay. Two of them are on hand still. When I look at Pro football reference, it still says four interceptions. It does. And so look, I am with you. And like everybody loves Herbert's talent, I assume. And he was great as early in his career his first few years. I assume you're saying, look, he's got a very good coach. Even though he kind of took the ball out of his hands, he's going to start winning. He's going to be, you know, throw fewer picks and things like that with hardball. So you're projecting. And he does have top five talent. But right now I can't put him there. I will put Jaden Daniels. You know, my MO5 to 12ish is fluid. But right now the Tide is pushing Jaden Daniels to number five. We'll see if he holds on. Jalen hurts. I gotta have above Justin Herbert, Matthew Stafford. I think, look, he's 37. We know now the back is bothering him. He's not going to practice this week. That's really been his problem since the super bowl win a few years ago. Injuries have lessened his impact, even kept him out of some games. So I think Stafford just might be. He feels like an old 37 and that's old enough as it is just by itself. So I think Stafford is probably on decline. I think you got Jared Goff a tad bit high, but you know, the list. Main thing is Justin Herbert is too high. And I don't understand it for the life of me.
- [13:59]
Chris Felica
Let's just say the trade was offered. Herbert for Hertz. Who says no? Philly, no. They would not.
- [14:09]
Colin Cowherd
Now, A.J. brown might not say no or Devonte Smith, but I think Philly says no. How you doing? The tush push with Justin Herbert, you're.
- [14:20]
Chris Felica
Handing it to Saquon Barkley and you're throwing the ball to Devonte Smith and A.J.
- [14:25]
Chris Broussard
Brown.
- [14:26]
Chris Felica
We could get rid of the tush push.
- [14:29]
Colin Cowherd
Look, Herbert, I love Herbert. Not as much as you.
- [14:33]
Chris Felica
Thank you.
- [14:33]
Colin Cowherd
But I do like Herbert. Two things can be true. All the talent in the world and is tough, right? Physically tough play through injury. But he, you, you have to be a bit taken aback and have to give pause because of the way he's played in these playoffs. He wasn't horrible in the first game. When they let you know, Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville come back, he didn't like throw a bunch of picks, but he just didn't do anything in the second half. But he really hasn't been great in the biggest games in the playoffs at least. So you do have to admit that.
- [15:07]
Chris Felica
Yeah. 02 with a terrible collapse in one and four interceptions with the other. I cannot, I cannot argue that point there.
- [15:15]
Colin Cowherd
Those Two sentences you just said. And number fifth best quarterback in the world. Don't jibe.
- [15:23]
Chris Felica
It's a team.
- [15:23]
Colin Cowherd
They just don't. I'm sorry, it's a team game. That's right. It was Will Disley that threw those four interceptions. Not just. That's what Jim Harbaugh saying. Right. The other team, the other players got to pick it up. They got to catch up.
- [15:39]
Chris Felica
They got to catch up to get on. Just now you're seeing me and Harbaugh. Is that next level football thinking. I, I said earlier in the show brew 31 NFL teams and a television producer. I think Jerry Jones gave away the plot in the Netflix documentary when he said it's a soap opera 365 days a year. And when we are trying to be like, why would they handle CD Lamb this way? Why would they handle Micah Parsons this way? I feel like that four second clip in the trailer explained everything. What about you?
- [16:15]
Colin Cowherd
You're right on the money. Look it, you know, think of your favorite sports movies. I like loving basketball. Bull Durham. That's maybe before your time, but these are movies. They're sports movies, right? Yeah, but they're not really about sports. They're just in a sports setting. That's the Dallas Cowboys under Jerry Jones, at least since they won their last Super Bowl. They are a drama. They are. I've used that term to describe them. Soap opera. That's in a football setting. They're not really a football franchise. The New England Patriots, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Los Angeles Chargers, those are football franchises. The Dallas Cowboys are a soap opera, a drama. An entertainment factory like that just happens to be in a football setting. And what I would say to Jerry, because you put it out, I thought you spelled it out well in your last segment. That's what this thing is with Micah. He might pay Micah, he's going to make him the highest paid non quarterback ever. But he might go well above T.J. watts, $41 million per because he likes having that reputation. It will help him among other players. Right. On other teams and say, man, Jerry went way above, you know, making Micah the highest paid 9 QB. And But I would say this to Jerry, making another dollar on the Cowboys is not going to change anything for him. But winning another super bowl would. And I really think the entertainment value, the value of the franchise, keeping the Cowboys on talk shows like this and ours and the other networks is most important to Jerry. But they already have a sky high value as the Cowboys. What would change his world would be winning another super bowl and I don't think he sees it that way, unfortunately, because, you know, make. How much more money does he need and how much more valuable do they need to get? They're going to keep rising in value no matter what. So I just think he's approaching it the wrong way.
- [18:32]
Chris Felica
Chris Broussard, first Things First. We'll be watching later. Thank you, sir.
- [18:36]
Colin Cowherd
All right, man. Later.
- [18:38]
Chris Felica
All right. Talk to you soon. That's Chris Broussard from First Things First. Coming up, it's a shame I don't have a bet yet for the Heisman Trophy. I got a lot of futures bets already placed for football. I need a little bit more on my college football card. The Bear helps me fill that void. Plus, never too early to bet Texas and Ohio State. The Bear next. I'm Danny Parkins. This the Herd. Be sure to catch live editions of the Herd, weekdays at noon Eastern, 9am Pacific. Welcome back to the Herd. I'm Danny Parkins in for college. It is football season because we have a Hall of Fame game this week, but it's always football season if you gamble on football. Which means it's time to bring on my next guest, Chris Felica. You know him as the Bear Fox big noon kickoff, host of Bear Bets with Jeff Schwartz. I've been a guest on that show. And Bear, listen, I don't want you to have to bring it up, so I'll do it. I went 65% against the spread in the NFL last year, documented on TV. It's not, it's not, it's not a big deal. I beat Colin, I beat Nick, I beat you. It's not a big deal. I don't want you to have to bring it up, so I'm going to say it. But you, but you're the gambling expert and college football is right around the corner. I know you will be at Texas and Ohio State. Do we have an early Bear bet for that game?
- [20:06]
Chris Broussard
65%. But, but who's counting, right? I mean, no reason.
- [20:09]
Chris Felica
It's not a big deal.
- [20:11]
Colin Cowherd
It's not a big deal.
- [20:11]
Chris Felica
Did I also have a winning record in the postse. I did. Did I also have a winning Super Bowl? I did, but. Stop bringing it up, Bear. Stop.
- [20:19]
Chris Broussard
I'm sorry. I'll let you move on. I don't want to have you live in the past. I'll stop bringing all of your thank you accolades from, from last season up. That way we can focus on 2025. You had a, an unbelievable year and that was kudos to you for that. But looking ahead to 20, 25 and notably Ohio State, Texas to open the year. I know everybody's looking for a side in this game, Texas or Ohio State, but the thing that attracts me the most is the total in this game. 50 and a half seems like a very high number for a couple of teams where you got new coordinators, you've got new starting quarterbacks, you've got new offensive linemen, you've got new running backs. On the Ohio State side of the ball, I think you look at the best unit on the field will probably be the Texas defense. So I don't think Steve Sarkeesian is going to put together a game plan that's going to dictate Arch Manning goes on the road at Ohio State in game one to win this game. Look at the semifinal game from a year ago. It was 2814 and that included a defensive touchdown by Ohio State late in the game. So Texas defense held that unbelievable Ohio state offense to 21 points. So that was 2814, 42 points, including an offensive score. I could see a very similar type, 2317 type game where it doesn't even come close to going over 50 and a half. So yeah, under 50 and a half is what I like right now in that big one that I can't wait to get to with big dude at the end of August.
- [21:50]
Chris Felica
And people say unders are boring. Not if they win.
- [21:53]
Chris Broussard
They're exactly right.
- [21:56]
Chris Felica
Yeah, they're not boring if they win. At this point I normally have a Heisman future and I don't right now. Can you help me out? It doesn't matter. I'll take, I'll bet a favorite if it wins. But what's your, what's your best Heisman bet?
- [22:10]
Chris Broussard
I. I have bet two players in the Heisman Trophy market. I have bet Carson Beck, the Miami quarterback at 33 to 1 and I bet Jeremiah Love, the Notre Dame running back at 40 to 1. So those are the two I have in pocket. I think people forget how good Carson Beck was a couple of years ago. What do you have, like 25 touchdowns, six picks, hit over 70% of his passes. He's going to have a one of the best offensive lines in the country in Miami. He's going to have a deep group of running backs at Miami. They're going to be a one first type of team. They're not going to put too much pressure on it. But I think with Elijah Lofton and Jojo Traitor, they have wide receiver, they got a couple of guys who they think very highly of. So if Miami were to beat Notre Dame week one, that price is going to get slashed in half. So grab that number now on Carson Beck. And then I also took Jeremiah Love, the Notre Dame running back. We saw what he can do all year. He catches the ball out of the backfield. Obviously a great runner. Notre Dame can win that game. Maybe they go undefeated. Even if Notre Dame were to lose that game, they potentially went out go to the playoff. He's the best player on one of the biggest brands in college football. I think maybe after last year was Travis Hunter winning the Heisman is kind of a defensive hybrid wide receiver guy. I can see a lot of voters maybe taking a step back and getting a little bit more traditional this year with a quarterback running back type winner.
- [23:34]
Chris Felica
Talking football, gambling with the bear. All right, let's move to the NFL. Last year Washington shattered their win total and I'm trying to figure it out like not just the team that ekes and over, but who's a team with a low total that could shatter their over and give you a comfortable win.
- [23:53]
Chris Broussard
All right, I know I'm kind of taking my life in my own hands here a little bit with the Raheem Morris School of Game and Clock Management, but I think the Falcons, we total a seven and a half. It's a very weak division. I am high on Michael Penix. They look great now for drafting him given what happened to Kirk Cousins late last year. And if you look at the Falcons last year, remember this was a team that was six and three before Cousins got hurt and absolutely fell off the cliff. You've got Drake London, you've got Bijan Robinson. You've got a schedule, like I said, of a very poor division. Maybe one cold weather game late in the year against the jets who aren't very good. Not a ton of super bowl playoff contenders on that schedule. The Falcons are a team this year that I could see very easily getting to that 10 win mark just like the Commanders did last year.
- [24:42]
Chris Felica
All right, so the Falcons are at seven and a half wins. So yeah, if they get to double digit that would certainly qualify. So let's do the inverse of the question. Give me a team with a win total, let's say of nine, nine and a half or higher. Right. So expected to be a double digit win team that doesn't just win eight or nine games in e conder but has a chance to be way worse than projections suggest.
- [25:03]
Chris Broussard
Kevin o' Connell was coach of the year last year. Brian Flores very easily could have been the assistant coach of the year. Last year. I can't quite get there yet with all of this love for the Minnesota Vikings. I think Sam Darnold obviously had a magical year and they have a great receiving core. Remember, you went nine one in one score games. You're turning it over to J.J. mcCarthy who hasn't really played a competitive down of football in a couple of years. Be very interested to see how the Vikings do this year in that difficult division, difficult schedule. Now one thing that I like to do with some of these teams that I don't necessarily have a great feeling about in terms of them being super good. The Vikings are a team that if you look at the early part of the schedule before they have that London game and the Idol week, they can start off 4 and 1, maybe 5 and 3 and 2. You might be able to get an additional win or two on the win total because when they come back from, from the overseas trip, you've got Detroit, you've got Baltimore, you've got Philly, you've got the Chargers, you got the Packers. Like you might be able to wait and potentially get maybe under ten and a half or so on the Vikings once that win total gets adjusted in season. So you can play it now or you could potentially wait and hope that the Vikings get off to a good start and you can maybe grab a better number at some point during the year.
- [26:23]
Chris Felica
So the Steelers, it's like contractually obligated. You mentioned the Steelers, they've never had, they've never had a losing record right under Mike Tomlin, but the win total actually expects them to. And that's not the first year that that has happened. Do you believe that they actually will have their first losing season under Mike Tomlin and cash and under.
- [26:46]
Chris Broussard
Well, I'm glad you, you did the payoff on the contractual obligation because anytime you mentioned the Steelers, you are contractually obligated that they've never had a losing record out of Mike Tomlin. I don't, I don't see it. I think they're always going to be so well coached. They have such a great home field advantage. They feel like a 9 and 8 type of team. So how I played the Steelers this year was to lose in the wild card round at plus 320. Because what that means is you figure they're probably a playoff team, fringe wild card team, and that means they're going to have to go on the road and play either Buffalo or Baltimore or Kansas City and they're not going to win that game. So at plus 320 to make the playoffs and have that first round loss. I thought that was a, a little bit of an interesting way to kind of capitalize on what you think might be a playoff team, but you don't really think they're going to go very far in them.
- [27:41]
Chris Felica
I got to say I've been gambling on sports since I was like 15 years old. I don't think I've ever made that bet. The preseason wild card loser. Like that's, that's a, that's a long time to tie up your money for +3.20 for a very specific outcome like that. But precedent would suggest that that's probably a very smart wager. So congratulations on showing me a new way to bet the NFL. The Bears. By the way, you didn't send me a text congratulating that they are coming off of a three peat of three straight off season championships. It's okay, don't worry about it. Does the off season ever convert? Are they an over or an under team this year?
- [28:26]
Chris Broussard
I think they're an under team unfortunately. My man. Yeah, I think it's a little too much hype and thinking Ben Johnson is going to come in right away and completely turn them around. Remember, you still and as much as high is not high as I am on the Vikings, you still got the packers, still got the Lions. It's a tough schedule and I'm still kind of taking a wait and see approach with, with Caleb as well. So sorry to burst your bubble there to end the segment, but yeah, I'd go under eight and a half there on the Bears. I'm sorry.

No, it's fine. I mean you have any other NFL bet you want to give out real quick 30 seconds?

Yeah, I bet that. I think the divide, the reports of the demise of the Kansas City Chiefs are a little exaggerated. And this is not my co host Jeff Schwartz. Mr. Chief being in my ear, I think they solved a lot of problems on the offensive line with Simmons. I think you have a healthy year of wide receivers, a healthy year running back. Defensively I think they'll be better. Obviously again like you can bet the Chiefs to win the division at minus 120. You could potentially bet Patrick Mahomes to win the MVP at a nice number. I think this Chiefs team is still really good and the fact, the way they lost the Super Bowl, I think you're going to see them a little bit more motivated than usual and it's a chance to get a really good team and a really good quarterback and a really good head coach going into the year. A little bit extra motivated with a little bit of a added chip on their shoulder.

Chris, Felica, the Bear, we'll be seeing you on Big Noon kickoff. We'll be listening to the podcast. Thank you for the time, my friend.

That's the Bear. One of the best in the business. But I did go 65% in the NFL as you stop mentioning it. Oh, wait. I guess I really have no one else to blame for that but myself. And it's true. The Bears are the all hype team. That's what happens when you're coming off a three peat. When you've won three straight off seasons. There's going to be a tremendous amount of hype. It's an inevitability. I just don't know if it'll be this year. So we'll, we'll wait and see. But there's no part of me that has any interest in betting the under on Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson this year. It's been a very fun show. I'll be back each of the next two days. In for Colin. Can't wait to join the cast of First Things first regularly for this football season. Which means my longtime best friend Nick Wright will be my new teammate at FtF and he'll join us tomorrow on the Herd. Danny Parkinson for Colin.
