Colin Cowherd unveiled his best head coach/quarterback duo this week and two AFC East teams made the list.
Neither of the teams were the New York Jets.
Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes were, no surprisingly, the top head coach and quarterback duo on Cowherd’s list. That just seems like a given. But the rest of the list is open to debate, especially with the exclusion of Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and head coach Robert Saleh.
Let’s be honest, Saleh is on the hot seat heading into this season of high expectations. But let’s also be honest that he overachieved in taking the Jets, (without Rodgers from Week 2) to a 7-10 record last year.
That should have been enough for Rodgers and Saleh to make the top 10 list, right?
Sean McDermott and Josh Allen came in fifth on the list, noting that the Bills are “obviously a very good football organization.”
“I think we all know (that) Josh is probably, even more so than Mahomes, physically on a different planet,” Cowherd said on FS1.
“Size, speed, arm strength, there’s nothing like Josh Allen in the world, including Mahomes.”
Mike McDaniel and the Miami Dolphins came in at No. 9 on the list.
