You Have Never Heard a Colin Cowherd Take As Wild As This One

Colin Cowherd has a unique thought about Saquon Barkley in Philadelphia. | The Herd on X

Colin Cowherd is going to eventually end up in every Hall of Fame created for those who sit behind a microphone and talk about sports because his ability to have a free-flowing conversation with himself for 15-20 hours per week is as good as we've ever seen. Those interested in sports media have watched him evolve on the national stage over the past two decades, along the way being privy to thousands upon thousand of hours of content chockfull of similies, metaphors and big opinions.

But just when you think you've heard it all from the presiding Face of FS1, he shows up on a Monday in late November and drops what may be one of the wildest things he's even said. Cowherd has somehow turned Phildelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley having a nice string of games into something that, well, has a bit of a Babe Ruth to the Yankees feel doesn't it? The type of thing that makes a person wonder if the Giants are going to be cursed for 100 years?
