He must expects the Seahawks to make a huge jump if they leapfrog Dallas and about 5 other teams.
I have Dallas 3rd right now after the Eagles and 49ers.
Hopefully the training camp and the first 3 games that count changes my mind about that.
I saw this segment live and knew he would put either Seattle or LA in front of us. He grew up in the PNW and has personal friendships with McVay/Snead. I was prompted to go online and look up NFC power rankings pre and post draft and 99.9% of them have us as the 3rd best team.
If his reasoning is Seattle is filled with talented players they are just young, then how could they leap frog us who have just as many if not more plus they are in their prime? Plus, outside of their WR corps, they do not have one unit clearly better than ours.
But then again Cowherd has predicted we go 9-8 back to back years and always acts like our offseasons are dramatically poor. He severely overrates our losses while dismissing other teams departures. For example, he says he dropped us down because we lost Kellen Moore when the Eagles lost Steichen. For us it’s a huge loss, for them it’s no big deal lol. He swears Shultz and Zeke are big losses, when he acts like Hargrave can be replaced by Carter asap and CGJ being gone doesn’t matter.
At least with Philly they made the SB twice in the last 6 years so they can get a benefit of the doubt. What Seattle has done to leap frog us I have no clue. They had a good draft but if you think a bunch of 1st and 2nd year guys and a QB with only one good year is going to unseat a team who’s had back to back 12 year seasons and hasn’t had any major losses is going out on a limb.
