The Washington Commanders sit atop the NFC East standings at 3-1, a surprise to just about everyone — except, perhaps, ColCowherd.
Yet the early-season excellence of Washington’s offense behind historic performances from rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels cannot be ignored, which is why the Commanders have now made their way into the Herd Heirarchy heading into Week 5.
Meanwhile, the Baltimore Ravens have surged after two impressive wins following an 0-2 start, while the New York Jets tumbled out of the rankings an ugly loss to the DeBroncos. The Detroit Lionsand San Francisco 49ers also gained ground on the Kansas City Chiefs after huge wins last week.
Cowherd’s thoughts: “I thought Seattle, missing their four best defensive, linemen looked great. Geno Smith, that dude throws a beautiful ball [and] is totally in tune with DK Metcalf. I like their running backs. I’m sorry, Geno leads the NFL in passing yards [and is] second in completion percentage. [Running back] Kenneth Walker, I was blown away. Seattle didn’t have their four best defensive linemen against the best O-line in the league. You knew they wouldn’t make stops. I thought Geno was exceptional on a on the road.”
Cowherd’s thoughts: “Texans’ only loss came on the road to the Vikings. They got housed, didn’t have Joe Mixon, but they’re a top eight offense, top five defense, and I love C.J. Stroud. Joe Mixon is coming back. C.J. Stroud is a young quarterback. Did you see Caleb Williams this week when he got a run game with D’An Swift? Oh, Caleb looked pretty good. As good as C.J. Stroud is, and he’s got his weapons like Nico Collins, young quarterbacks especially – they need their running backs.”
