Colin Cowherd and ‘3 & Out’ host John Middlekauff discuss the biggest stories from around the NFL. Is there more to Jim Harbaugh’s heavy praise for J.J. McCarthy than their Michigan connection? Will Brian Daboll and the New York Giants or Sean Payton’s Denver Broncos draft a quarterback in the NFL Draft? And is Deion Sanders putting too much pressure on his son following his recent comments about Shedeur Sanders and the NFL Draft? Later, Colin and John discuss if Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears are NFL Playoff contenders, the Shohei Ohtani gambling allegations, and whether Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets are in for a disappointing season in 2024.

Middlekauf just said if qb's go 1st 4 picks then the Chargers are "stuck" at #5. What a terrible spot to be in choosing the best player in the draft 😂 way to think that 1 through John
Funny how these guys talk about a 13 year vet with one playoff win a lot differently than an 8 year vet with 2 playoff wins.
I'll always be the clear head for the dolphins. Tua is fine. Paying him like an ELITE qb might not be good but he's in the 90% percentile of his peers. Also, the contract for Wilkins wasn't worth it. Vangio is ancient while the players are young. Did you see Vangios play calling against the titans that allowed 2 Tds in a minute?
The guy stayed up past his bedtime. The dolphins will be even better. Also, Wilkins has a tendency of friendly fire. That matters.
Bad stern impersonator. Cowherd is a tool
Love wen they talk about arod and sanders , shows how much fball they dont know
“The next Draymond” only works if you have the greatest shooters in history around you that allow you to act like a donkey. That is why there is no “next Draymond”
Take adunze at 9
As far as Caleb Williams is concerned, I like QBs who don't cry in their mommas arms after a loss, wouldn't touch Williams with a 10 foot pole.
That’s why you are a former nfl scout cause you don’t see talent Colin do better
Love the podcast but this is absolute rubbish about the Chargers. The Ravens have taken 3 first round WRs since 2019 (Hurst a TE in the first round in 2018), haven't taken a offensive lineman in round 1 since 2016 and usually operate on a BPA principle in their drafts. In the 4 years that Harbaugh was in SF, they took 0 offensive lineman in round 1 (meanwhile took a WR and 2 DBs). Clearly the staff want to be more physical but this idea that they'd rather go OT in round 1 than WR isn't based on facts. Sure if they trade down, get an extra first this year then I could see an OT in round 1. But if they have to stick and pick at 5, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be happy taking MHJ/Nabers/Odunze. We don't even have a WR2 on the team, nevermind a WR1
Colin realizing how screwed the broncos are with no QB. Hi buddy Payton will probably be back on tv with him in a few years
Marvin Harrison Sr caught his first nfl touchdown pass from ??? Jim Harbaugh, they want Harrison
Getting STUCK with number 5? Real world problems
If Harbaugh REALLY thought that much of McCarthy, JJ would end up being a Charger. That's not on anybody's radar. SD could get a king's ransom for Herbert but that's not even being condisered.
Fans like defense… Just more projection from colin who calls any low scoring game unwatchable
re: Ohtani… if he has significant debts to a BOOKIE, it doesn't matter what sport he's betting on. It still sets up the potential for throwing a game to alleviate debts. Also, what bookie allows an interpreter to amass a $4.5 million debt? This situation is very problematic, even if you think Ohtani's wealth makes him immune to normal scrutiny.
You gotta be wary of these QBs who play the Mike Leach fun and gun BS offense.
The casual fan wants offense but there are fans who appreciate Defense and prefer low scores.
Thank goodness the NFL is finally making the “Hip Drop” tackle a penalty . I’ve been saying for years it’s a cheap shot that injured players .
Let Pete Rose back in baseball !
It's kind of fascinating that Kirk Cousins was the fourth-round backup for RGIII and he's made about 300 million in the league and RGIII is long gone…
Colin acting surprised that Kirk Cousins is viewed as worth 3 wins over Ridder, and that Darnold is viewed as a steaming pile if garbage is great 🥴
We haven’t seen Aaron since his last year in Green Bay. How about we actually see him play in a Jets uniform for more than 4 snaps?
Williams at QB, Verse, Bowers or one of the top 3 wideouts in first round, new OC, and added solid new offensive weapons in Swift and Allen, A+ for the Bears in the offseason.
The new rule is terrible it’s going to ruin the game might as well turn it into flag football
the dolphins lost a DT and a guard. are we serious? they had huge upgrades at linebacker and tight end and have a 1 rd pick. also jalen ramsey is their best defensive player. wilkins is not elite or dominant.
These 2 are great together
The entertainment value is overrated and has sullened the game severely,its compatible to wrestling now
Jim and the GM look like a joke so far. They have no skill players. Getting rid of k.Allen was the dumbest move from any team in the off season. Run 2 times pass 1 and punt is not a good plan in today's NFL.
Collin checking out John’s Girlfriend and complimenting her in every podcast … creepy old guy
Jim harbaugh is taking a WR envision it with us plz lol
J Mac who said the chiefs wouldn’t win anything?? Pass
What kind of loser checks on their own checking account.😅😅😅talk about being snapped off from reality. Good thing you guys know sports really well.
I really hope the Vikings don't buy into this J.J. hype. When watching him during the season at Michigan at no point did I think that was a NFL quarterback even a backup now they talking about top 10 pick what!!!!!????
His team is stacked. Max Jones looked a lot better than JJ ever did and he was a reach at 15 pick. JJ is a 3rd-4th round quarterback that can possibly develop to an ok starter like Kirk was able to do, but if you draft him at 5th then he needs to perform within 2 years
Wrong. 40 dollars gambling a day equals over 1k dollars a month. That could easily cost an overtime working family their mortgage. Defending gambling is defending heroin addiction. That's why there are gamblers anonymous must like alcohol and narcotics anonymous. You guys are very in touch with the wealthy sports world but you are clueless about the world that makes the sports world possible.
John need to be your host on the herd
Wow, immediately starts off with a pro sports gambling segment.. and sponsor.. So Don't Be Hypocritical.. and put down the athletes for gambling!!!
I wonder if Colin remembers that he's the one that called Jordan Love to the Packers
Two guys who now make a ton off gambling think it's not a problem and spend half the show defending it. Nothing to see here…move along.
“If I get new information I change my opinion” is absolute nonsense Colin
I love to place bets of less than a dollar. It's so exciting to hit a 8 to 10 team parlay and win $150 on a 25 cent bet
Truly shameful defense of gambling
Love Colin sticking up for his obviously financially motivated favorite things. Gambling…Draymond Green….
Hilarious cope session about gambling and the state of it in 2024, the Gambling perspective from well off/rich older people is laughable.
You have no idea about the 18-21 year old kid demographic that is blowing their paycheck on shitty parlays, gambling is a worse problem today than it was 5 years ago becaue of how pushed it is. Colin & John obviously dont want to admit they are part of the problem by making a profit off of it though.
Colin and John dead wrong on gambling I understand they make huge money off it but it’s just not reality gambling is becoming a public health emergency in this country also in Europe they have regulations against advertising during games and Australia is a gambling addicted country it can be done for fun but it’s too easily available
leave it to Collin to oversimplify and think superficially
Wtf Marvin Harrison off the field shit gotta do wit his son smfhhhhhhhh
