THE HERD – HOUR 1 – Chiefs Dominate Broncos | Caleb Williams Greatness | Cowboys Limitations
Sep 15, 2026 · 41m
Summary
Colin Cowherd and J-Mac analyze the NFL's Week 1, focusing on the Denver Broncos' poor performance and questioning whether Bo Nix is an "inhibitor" rather than an "elevator" quarterback. They contrast this with the Kansas City Chiefs' successful pivot to a run-heavy offense featuring Kenneth Walker III. The hosts also praise the Chicago Bears' historic offensive explosion under Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams, while expressing skepticism about the Dallas Cowboys' ability to beat elite teams despite roster upgrades.
